You must give us the opportunity to try to resolve any problems or complaints you may have whilst you are at the accommodation. Any refusal to do so or refusal of reasonable rectification may prejudice your rights to compensation or repayment. Please ensure you leave a telephone number and a time for us to contact you back. If your phone is a mobile, ensure it is switched on and that you are in a clear reception area. We may need time to make arrangements.
The site manager (or their staff), our representative or repair people must be given access to the accommodation if you have a problem. We reserve the right for one of our staff to visit the accommodation at any time during this process, and you must agree to meet with a member of our company directly to discuss any situation which may arise. We also reserve the right to send an independent witness to the property to establish facts. This person is not available to make direct comment. If despite having contacted us the problem remains unresolved, it is essential that you contact our UK office again as we are entitled to assume that you are satisfied if we do not hear from you again.
You must not independently move to other accommodation without first allowing our UK office the opportunity to assist you in resolving your complaint or problem. If you do so, or you refuse reasonable rectification, you may prejudice your rights to compensation or repayment.
You must also formally confirm any unresolved complaint in writing to us within 28 days of your return from holiday. We will deal with all observations and/or comments received in writing.
Failure to notify us of complaints entirely in accordance with this paragraph may affect your rights under this contract.

19. Our Liability To You. We promise to make sure that the holiday arrangements we have agreed to make, perform or provide as applicable as part of our contract with you are made, performed or provided with reasonable skill and care. This means that, subject to these booking conditions, we will accept responsibility if, for example, you suffer death or personal injury or your contracted holiday arrangements are not provided as promised or prove deficient as a result of the failure of ourselves, our employees, agents or suppliers to use reasonable skill and care in making, performing or providing, as applicable, your contracted holiday arrangements. Please note it is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make a claim against us. In addition, we will only be responsible for what our employees, agents and suppliers do or do not do if they were at the time acting within the course of their employment (for employees) or carrying out work we had asked them to do (for agents and suppliers). We will not be responsible for any injury, illness, death, loss (for example loss of enjoyment), damage, expense, cost or other sum or claim of any description whatsoever which results from any of the following:- (a) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected or any member(s) of their party or (b) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable or (c) force majeure as defined in clause 10 above. We cannot accept responsibility for any services which do not form part of our contract. This includes, for example, any additional services or facilities which the campsite or any other supplier agrees to provide for you where the services or facilities are not advertised in our brochure or on our website and we have not agreed to arrange them. In addition, regardless of any wording used by us on our website, in any of our brochures or elsewhere, we only promise to use reasonable skill and care as set out above and we do not have any greater or different liability to you. Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss, expense or other sum(s) of any description which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you or which did not result from any breach of contract or other fault by ourselves or our employees or, where we are responsible for them, our suppliers.
20. Your Responsibilities In the interests of safety, you must follow the guidance in our notes, as well as that provided by anybody on our behalf; comply with any local codes of conduct, follow the Country Code, and act sensibly and prudently at all times.
21. The Accommodation Clients must take all reasonable precautions to protect themselves whilst on holiday.
You will be expected to provide basics such as bedding, cleaning materials, cooking basics, bin liners, etc. Please respect your neighbours and avoid causing noise and/or any nuisance.
Pitching tents or parking caravans to accommodate more people than the maximum is strictly forbidden. Animals are not allowed in the properties without permission unless when booked with your holiday.
Take sensible security by locking valuables in your vehicle and ensuring all windows and doors are closed. Take sensible weather precautions to ensure tents are correctly pegged down, any goods and equipment do not touch the tent canvas when raining (especially bed inners) and doors are zipped up. We enter a contract with you on the condition that you abide by these simple rules and that the occupation of the accommodation is not connected with any professional or commercial purpose unless otherwise agreed beforehand.
22. Behaviour. By making a booking with us, you accept responsibility for any damage or loss caused by you or any member of your party. Full payment for any such damage or loss must be paid direct at the time to the site manager or other service provider. If you fail to do so, you will be responsible for meeting any claims subsequently made against us (together with our own and the other party’s full legal costs) as a result of your actions.
We expect all clients to have consideration for other people. If in our reasonable opinion or in the reasonable opinion of any other person in authority, you or any member of your party behave in such a way as to cause or be likely to cause danger, upset or distress to any third party or damage to property, the site manager or owner, ourselves, or any person in authority are entitled, without prior notice, to terminate the contract of the person(s) concerned. In this situation, the person(s) concerned will be required to leave the accommodation or other service. Neither the campsite owner nor Park Farm Camping will have further responsibility toward such person(s) including any return travel arrangements. No refunds will be made and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of the termination.
Please note that unreasonable behaviour specifically includes smoking within any accommodation provided by us.
23. Arrival and Departure. You must arrive at your property between 3pm and 6pm, and depart by 10am. If you arrive later than 6pm you may not be able to access your accommodation and will have to make alternative accommodation arrangements until the following day. You are responsible for any resulting cost. It is imperative that you contact the campsite / keyholder at least 24 hours beforehand to make alternative arrangements.
On departure, clients are expected to remove all their personal items including all foodstuffs, empty fridges/freezers, empty all bins, empty any dishwasher and filter, flush toilets, wash up and put away all used kitchen equipment, remove any linen from the beds, return all items to their original positions, wipe surfaces, sweep floors and dispose of all household rubbish at the designated disposal point. The property must be left as clean as you would expect to find it. Failure to do so will incur costs to you.
24. Special Requests and Medical Problems If you have any special request, you must advise us at the time of booking. All special requests are subject to availability. We regret we cannot guarantee any request will be met. Failure to meet any special request will not be a breach of contract on our part.
If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your holiday, please tell us before you confirm your booking so that we can advise as to the suitability of the chosen arrangements. In any event, you must give us full details in writing at the time of booking. If we reasonably feel unable to properly accommodate the particular needs of the person concerned, we must reserve the right to decline their reservation or, if full details are not given at the time of booking, cancel when we become aware of these details.
25. Cancellation by Us. We reserve the right to withdraw any holiday dependent on a full a refund being paid to you.
