Check in

5 tips for a smooth arrival

1. Before you start your journey, use the My Haven app* or log in to haven.com/experience to view and save your personalised map to navigate to your holiday home on park. You'll find all the information you need about your holiday here thanks to our now paperless arrivals process, so download the app to access the park guide, holiday home guide and to book activities and dining experiences.

2. You can arrive up to 2 hours before your chosen or designated accommodation check-in slot, but no earlier than 11am (if you have been allocated an 12pm-1pm accommodation check-in slot, you can only arrive 1 hour before this time)

If you arrive early, you'll have access to use the restaurants, arcades, shops and have free roam of outdoor spaces on their parks. Please note: your accommodation can only be accessed at your designated arrival slot. If you've booked a Haven break, you can pick up your Play Passes from inside your accommodation at your designated check-in slot.

3. Stay in your vehicle when you get to the park entrance and check-in with the "Welcome Team". You'll receive a hanger to display in your car, which allows you to come and go in your vehicle.

4. When you get to your holiday home it will be sealed – break the seal and you will find your keys inside.

5. Get settled in, take a good look around and rate the cleanliness of your holiday home on the My Haven Experience app* or via haven.com/experience

Please note: Please do not arrive any earlier than two hours before your chosen or allocated accommodation check-in slot (reminder: 12pm-1pm check-in can only arrive 1 hour before their accommodation check-in slot), as you may be asked to leave the park and return during your allocated time slot in order to help keep other guests safe and secure.

*The My Haven Experience app is available to download on via Google Play or App Store.

Should you enter your caravan and find it not cleaned to the high levels that we expect then please make contact with a member of our park team.

Please note: if the seal on your caravan is broken when you arrive, please do not enter and contact a member of the park team immediately who will be able to assist you.

On the day of departure we ask that all our guests leave their holiday homes by 10am and drop their keys to their accommodation into the buckets provided on the way out. We want guests to be able to make the most of their time away with us and you are welcome to use the facilities on your departure day.
