2. Your Haven holiday

2.1 Your booking

If you book via our contact centre or park you will be charged a £20 booking fee per accommodation booked. There is no charge if you book via our website haven.com. We won’t charge a booking fee if you are booking with a Family Fund grant or if you need to book an accessible accommodation. Please note that we will only accept bookings from a lead guest who is an adult (aged 18 or over).

When you receive your booking confirmation, it is your responsibility to check that all the details contained in it are correct. Please contact us or your booking agent as soon as possible if any of the details are wrong. Your booking confirmation will detail any extras you have purchased and any other relevant information alongside your booking confirmation. Please note that you are not allowed to re-sell our holidays or act as an authorised agent.

2.2 Haven holiday packages

When you book directly with us you will have the choice of booking either a Haven package or a Haven Hideaway package.

If you book a Haven package, this includes your accommodation and access to our swimming pools, leisure facilities and activities, bars, restaurants, takeaways, supermarket, arcades and entertainment venues, subject to availability and the current booking requirements being met, and the showing of your Play Pass. Each member of your party included on your holiday booking (including children aged 4 and over) receives a Play Pass and it is this which gives you access to the facilities. If you do not have it with you, then you will not be allowed access. Play Passes do not give access to owners-only facilities. Activities and facilities are subject to additional charges. Closer to your holiday, we will let you know via email how to book activities, swimming sessions, tables for restaurants and how to order takeaways.

If you have booked a Haven Hideaway holiday, this includes your accommodation and access to the supermarket, arcades, restaurants and takeaways only. There is no access to any other facility such as the swimming pools, entertainment venues, bars and activities. Closer to your holiday, we will let you know via email how to book tables for restaurants and order takeaways.

If you have booked a touring or camping holiday, your break includes your pitch, and access to our swimming pools, activities, bars, restaurants, takeaways, supermarket, arcades and entertainment venues subject to availability and the current booking requirements being met, and the showing of your Play Pass. All activities are subject to an additional charge. Closer to your holiday, we will let you know via email how to book activities, swimming sessions, tables for restaurants and how to order takeaways.

2.3 Indirect bookings and our holiday packages

If you have booked through a third party agent, then please check with your agent which package you have booked as this varies by agent. If you do not book directly with Haven, but through one of our Haven owners then you will be classed as a Haven Hideaway package guest and you will only be able to access the supermarket, takeaways, arcade, bars and restaurants. However, these guests will have the opportunity to purchase a Play Pass prior to their arrival, for anyone registered, to access the same facilities (swimming pools, entertainment venues, leisure facilities and activities) as a Haven package guest. This is only available to these guests and is subject to availability. Please do not purchase a Haven holiday other than through an agent or one of our owners, as we cannot guarantee that holidays purchased through any other third party will be verified and go ahead.

2.4 Group bookings

Members of the same family and/or friends who book multiple accommodations at the same park on the same date and are: (i) previously known to each other; (ii) travelling together; (iii) reside at the same address; or (iv) travelling for the same purpose such as a local event, will be considered as a group for the purposes of these terms, irrespective of whether separate bookings have been made.

Please contact us if you want to travel as part of a group that would occupy five or more caravan holiday homes or pitches, and we will not charge you a booking fee for making a booking with our group booking team. Please be aware that we don't deem all our parks to be suitable for groups and may, therefore, reject your booking. If you haven't made a group booking and arrive in a group, or are pre-known to each other, we may tell you to leave the park, without a refund.

If we do accept your group booking, we may ask for a pre-paid deposit prior to your arrival. If you do visit one of our parks as a group and are unruly or antisocial, we'll tell you (and your entire party) to leave the park immediately, without a refund.

2.5 Other guest restrictions

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive holiday operator and aim to provide a great experience for all families and couples.

To achieve a friendly, family atmosphere for all our guests, we reserve the right to refuse or cancel bookings (without refund) from:

• persons under the age of 18;

• all-adult groups including hen, stag, touring sports teams, organised groups or any other parties that disrupt other guests;

• solo travellers (if we feel the reason for your stay isn't in line with our family focused values); or

• anyone else who we think might spoil things for other guests.

• anyone who is violent, verbally abusive or aggressive to our teams either before or during the holiday.

We do not knowingly allow any guest or owner to use or visit our parks who: (i) has an entry on a criminal register (including the sex offenders' register) or is subject to pending criminal proceedings; (ii) has any record of any order indicating antisocial behaviour, violence, abuse, public disorder, or criminal damage or any other form of antisocial behaviour; (iii) is a convicted sex offender, subject to the notification requirements of the Sexual Offences Act 2003; or (iv) is subject to a Risk of Sexual Harm Order or Child Abduction Notice.

If this information becomes known to us, we reserve the right to cancel your booking or terminate your holiday and require that you, and the other members of your party, leave the park, without refund.

2.6 Haven Flexi Plan

When you're looking forward to a holiday, it can be disappointing to have to cancel because something has happened. That's why we offer additional terms in our Haven Flexi Plan.

Haven Flexi Plan is only available within 48 hours of your time of booking and can be booked directly with us either online or via our contact centre. Payment is taken at the time it is added to the booking and, once purchased, it is non-refundable. The price payable will vary depending on the date of your holiday and whether you choose the Standard or Premium option. Details of the options, time frames and refund available for either the Standard or Premium options are set out at section 5 below.

2.7 Choose Your Holiday Home

Choose Your Holiday Home is a scheme for our guests to select their location on park - if there is availability in your chosen grade. It must be booked over 7 days prior to arrival. If you are eligible for this scheme, you can either choose this at time of making your booking or via 'My Account'. This is subject to availability and is not available for: stays over 7 nights or starting on a Saturday, accessible accommodation, touring or camping pitches, group or event bookings or bookings made via third parties, We do not take special requests for the location of your accommodation so if you would like a specific location on the park, please use our Choose Your Holiday Home service, if it applies.

There is a separate charge for Choose Your Holiday Home and payment must be made in full 10 weeks before your arrival date to guarantee your location on the park and your selected holiday home. If you change your mind, please remove this in your account and the price for the Choose Your Holiday Home scheme will be refunded to the card you paid for your holiday with. Cancelling your Choose Your Holiday Home location does not cancel your holiday.

If you make changes to your booking details, your selected location and accommodation will be removed and you will have to make your Choose Your Holiday Home selection again (subject to availability). There may be incidences where we have to move your pre-booked location due to a fault with your holiday home or replace the holiday home with a different model. We will endeavour to ensure that you are informed of this change and to find you alternative accommodation of the same level as you booked or offer you a full refund on your Choose Your Holiday Home charge.

2.8 Choose Your Check-in Time

Choose Your Check-in Time is a scheme to enable our guests to select their check-in time on the day of arrival (subject to availability). It must be booked over 7 days prior to arrival. You will see an add-on in “Extras” section within 'My Account' offering you the option to pre-book your chosen check-in time, either at the time of booking or after you have completed your holiday booking. If you change your mind and wish to cancel your pre-selected check-in time, this can be done by cancelling the add-on within your account. If we are unable to fulfil your chosen check-in, then we will endeavour to ensure that you are informed of this change prior to arrival to advise you of your new check-in time. In such circumstances, your check-in time payment will be refunded in full. If you do not select Choose Your Check-in Time as part of your holiday booking, we will assign you a check-in time at random which cannot be changed.

3. Planning for your holiday

3.1 Who's coming

Please use "My Account" to check the guests in your party - only people named on your booking can occupy your accommodation and, use our facilities. If anyone not on your booking is found to be occupying your accommodation, we will cancel your booking and all guests on your booking will be asked to leave the park immediately and without refund.

The total number of people coming with you (including children and babies) must not be more than the capacity of your caravan holiday home. In most cases, this will be 6 or 8 people maximum so please check your confirmation carefully. If you do go over the maximum number then unfortunately, we will have to turn away any extra people at check-in. You and members of your party who are 18 or over may be required to provide photographic identification (valid driving licence or passport) at any time during your stay.

3.2 Important information and updates

Wherever possible, important information updates about your holiday will be published and available for you to view online at haven.com. Please check your emails (including your spam folder) and our website in the lead up to your holiday. To continually receive the latest information please ensure we have your current contact details and your email address. To avoid disappointment, we would recommend pre-booking your activities where possible.

3.3 Bringing a baby

If you need a cot or highchair, you need to ask for it when you book. A hire charge is payable for these items and a £10 deposit is required which will be returned to your payment card after completion of your holiday. While our holiday homes are quite spacious, most are unable to fit a standard sized travel cot in the bedroom. Most of our guests find that the living room is the best place to put them. Please note that our travel cots do not come with a mattress or bedding and you must provide your own.

3.4 Bringing your Children

There are plenty of exciting indoor and outdoor activities for children to do at Haven. Our activities are very popular and fill up quickly, so you'll need to book activities either before you go or as soon as possible after you arrive. Please visit haven.com/experience to book activities. We will do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe at Haven, but your children are your responsibility. Please note that services and facilities for children are not childcare facilities and children aged 8 and under must always by supervised by an adult.

3.5 Guests and disabilities

We have built our caravan holiday homes and facilities to suit a range of access needs. If you have a disability or are travelling with someone who does, please let us know at the time of booking. We will do our best to meet your requirements, but they cannot always be guaranteed. If your request is a necessity for you to be able to take a holiday, or any member of your party has restricted mobility or access requirements, please contact our team to book your holiday. They can give you advice and information about our parks, caravan holiday homes and facilities and they'll do their best to design you a great holiday.

We do accept accredited assistance dogs in all areas of our parks (but not any other type of support animal). This does mean we can't guarantee that we've never had any dogs in our accommodation. Please note, due to the adaptations made in our accessible accommodation, these are always 2 bedroom caravans (3 bedroom is not possible).

3.6 Food allergies

All our team members in food and beverage are trained in food allergen awareness. If you have a food allergy or special dietary requirement, please talk to one of our team members before ordering your food or drinks. We take great care to prevent cross-contamination when preparing your food and drink, however, please be aware that all our food and drinks are prepared in kitchens or bars where all known allergens are present, therefore we cannot guarantee that any food and drink item is completely free from allergens. We will give you as much information as we can about the ingredients and how the food or drink is prepared so you can make an informed decision about whether or what to order in our venues.

Full allergen information on the ingredients in the food and drinks we serve is available upon request - please speak to a member of the team for assistance when ordering. Our menu descriptions do not list all ingredients, please advise the team of any dietary requirements when ordering.

3.7 Dogs in our parks

Please note that assistance dogs are welcome all areas of our parks. We also welcome other dogs in specific dog-friendly caravan holiday homes and on some pitches in all parks, (except Burnham-on-Sea and Riviere Sands). If you are bringing a dog as part of the booking, then a dog-friendly caravan or pitch must be selected at the time of booking. Up to two dogs are welcome in each designated accommodation.

There is no additional cost when booking directly with Haven as it is incorporated into your overall holiday price. If you have booked with a third party, there will be a charge of £40 per dog and dogs with touring and camping guests will cost £1 per dog per night (in all cases, up to 2 dogs per pitch).

We don't accept any dogs listed under the Dangerous Dogs Act. Please adhere to the signage on park regarding areas where dogs are unable to be accommodated. Please bear in mind that you won't be able to take your pet into our entertainment venues, or other public areas, including outdoor pools. For assistance dogs, please refer to 'Guests and disabilities' for more details.

If you, or one of your party, brings a dog to one of our parks without letting us know, you may be asked to move holiday home (which might be of a different grade) without reimbursement and a charge must be paid for any extra cleaning costs that we might incur.

Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times whilst on our parks and the lead guest is responsible for the behaviour of your party’s dog. If you have a dog that's behaving badly or affecting the comfort of other guests, we will ask you to take them away. Should we have concerns about the safety of others, or that your dog may not be under control, we will ask you and your party to leave the park (without refund).

3.8 Bringing a vehicle to the park

We'll do our best to give you a parking space next to your caravan holiday home or pitch but we can't guarantee this. If you are planning to bring a vehicle to park that is not a car (a lorry, van, motorbike, jet ski or boat, for example), please check with your park before you book as some parks don't have the space, and some cannot accept large or noisy vehicles.

The Road Traffic Act applies on the park and all normal rules of the road apply, including prohibitions on driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Your vehicle must be fully taxed and insured, and you should drive with care and consideration for others. For your safety, there is a maximum 10mph speed limit. Branded vehicles or vehicles with signage on the side are not allowed on park and may be turned away.

Before arrival (or in some cases on arrival) at the park, we will ask you to provide your car registration details. Haven may use authentication services provided by DVLA to ensure the correct vehicle registration number has been provided at check in. We will store the vehicle registration number, make, model and colour to further support our team when you arrive at the gate.

We note that some guests are using hybrid or electric cars but please do not use your caravan holiday home electricity to charge this type of car. We are working on ways to enable electric vehicle charging and offer charging facilities on some parks. Please contact the park directly for availability and pricing.

3.9 Touring or camping

Our standard pitches are 6m x 6m – big enough to suit most units. You can only bring one tourer, motorhome, tent or trailer tent onto each pitch which you have booked. Your unit, guide ropes, awning and pup tent (if applicable at the park you're staying at) must fit within your pitch area. If your unit is on the large side, we'll do what we can to help you fit it in but please speak to the park directly before making your booking so that we can confirm that we can accommodate you. There is a charge for pup tents and you must tell us when you book so that we can check the pitch is suitable. (not all parks and pitches can accommodate these). Our parks don't accept gazebos, event shelters or toilet tents on any of our pitches. Some parks cannot accept awnings with annexes and in some, you cannot sleep under an awning. Please check what you can bring and what you can do before booking. Please be aware that if you choose to remove the utility service charge from your pitch booking, you will not be allowed to use your own electricity generator while staying with us.

3.10 Fancy dress

Please let us know if you're planning to wear fancy dress. We want to make sure that your plans will fit in with the environment of the park, so we need to approve this before taking your booking. Fancy dress is not permitted at some of our parks unless part of an advertised event.

4. Paying for your holiday

4.1 What you'll pay

The prices of our holidays change depending on availability. If guests book their holiday very close to arrival then fluctuations in price will occur on a much more frequent basis, so it is advisable to book early. You'll find up-to-date prices on our website, although we can only confirm the exact price of your holiday when you book. Any quotation obtained prior to booking is subject to change. All pricing is subject to promotional availability at the time of booking your holiday. We guarantee that the price shown on your booking confirmation for the accommodation and party size, plus any supplements, is the amount payable by you but we reserve the right to raise or lower our holiday prices and other charges at any time before booking. Once you've booked and paid your deposit, we won't change your holiday price unless (a) the VAT rate changes, (b) you request a change to your holiday booking that results in an increase in the holiday price, or (c) unless we both agree. VAT will be payable at the prevailing rate on the date on which payment is made. Although we will confirm to you at the time of booking the price for the holiday including VAT at then current rates, if the VAT rate increases after we have confirmed your booking but before the start date of your holiday, we may ask you to pay an additional amount to cover this increase.

4.2 Current prices

Our latest published prices can be found at haven.com. Guests are reminded that the prices displayed on the website are subject to change. Haven offers are subject to limited promotional availability and can be withdrawn at any time.

4.3 Our Price Promise

If the price of your break goes down after you have booked, you can get a refund for the difference. You will be eligible for our Price Promise if: (i) you have booked your holiday directly with Haven and (ii) your booking confirmation states that you are eligible for our Price Promise. If you satisfy these conditions, then please use our chatbot to apply the relevant adjustment. This must be done at the time you see the price; we cannot retroactively match prices you have seen previously. The adjustment is subject to the holiday being for the same park, dates, package (Haven holiday or Haven Hideaway packages), duration, accommodation type, number of guests and there still being availability to book. Our Price Promise only covers the original holiday booked by you. Third party promotions are excluded. All claims must be made before the start date of your break.

4.4 How to pay

Debit or credit card: the easiest way to pay for your holiday is by debit (preferred) or credit card on the Haven website. If you make a payment over the phone, we will add a £3 administration fee to the total price of your booking. We accept Mastercard and Visa. We do not accept American Express, Delta, Diners Club, Maestro, Visa Electron or Solo. At the time of booking we will require: (i) the long card number; (ii) the last 3 digits of your security code; (iii) the expiry date; (iv) the cardholder's name and address; and (v) for web payments, additional verification. We are unable to accept debit or credit card payments over the phone within six (6) weeks of your arrival date.

Electronic bank transfer: Please call us if you want to make payment via electronic bank transfer and we will provide the appropriate bank sort code and account number along with the account name. We will also give you a payment reference to use. Please note that due to the time it can take for an electronic bank transfer to clear, we will not accept any bank transfers within 7 days of arrival. If paying your deposit payment, your holiday booking will not be confirmed until the bank transfer has cleared and been applied to your booking. A £3 administration fee will be added to the total cost of your booking for each payment made via bank transfer.

4.5 Deposits and when to pay

If you book more than 10 weeks before the start of your holiday, you can either pay the full amount or a deposit. The final payment must be paid 10 weeks before arrival. If you book 10 weeks or less before the start of your holiday, you'll have to pay in full at the time of booking. If you book within 6 weeks of the start of your holiday, you (the lead guest) will need to make payment via electronic bank transfer (with a £3 administration fee) or online with a debit or credit card (in your name only).

If you call us to pay, there will be a £3 administration fee and you cannot pay over the phone within 6 weeks of arrival. Your booking will only be confirmed once your deposit has been paid and deposit payments are non-refundable and non-transferable. If you pay in full, a minimum of £60 will be counted as your deposit payment and is non-refundable. If you select a payment plan, a minimum of £30 will be due as a deposit payment and is non-refundable. Touring and camping bookings are subject to deposit requirements set out at the time of booking.

Your booking confirmation will show your balance due date. It is your responsibility to pay the balance when due and, if you don't, we'll cancel your holiday with no deposit refund. We will remove any extras or add-ons applied to your booking if you have not paid for them in full within 10 weeks of the date of your arrival.

We will remove any extras or add-ons applied to your booking if you have not paid for them within 10 weeks of the date of your arrival and they may not be available to add back on.

We reserve the right to ask to see your payment card and photo ID at any time during your holiday and this should match the details used to make your booking. If you are unable to produce these, we can ask you to leave without a refund.

5. Changing or cancelling your plans

5.1 How you can change your booking

We understand that needs change, and we aim to provide the best holiday experience. If you need to change your booking, we will try our best to accommodate you. You can add guests or change names on the booking by using ‘My Account’ at no extra cost up to 7 days prior to arrival but we do not allow you to change the identity of the lead guest.

You can also amend your arrival date, duration of stay or the choice of park at no extra cost within the timeframes set out in the table below (subject to availability. If you make such changes outside of the below timeframes then this will be treated as a cancellation and your deposit will not be refunded.

Please note that: (i) a minimum £20 administration fee applies to each change; and (ii) the booking will be recalculated at current prices. In the event of an increase in cost, the guest will need to cover the difference. In the event of a decrease in cost, a refund will be issued. Below is a summary of the position depending on your choice of plan and date of change:

No Haven Flexi Plan:

For bookings with arrival dates up to and including 31 December 2026, the time periods are:

For bookings with arrival dates commencing on or after 1 January 2027, the time periods are:

Haven Flexi Plan Standard:

Haven Flexi Plan Premium:

If the change you want to make is not possible or it is too close to the start of your holiday to make that change and you choose not to proceed with your booking, this will be classed as a cancellation.

5.2 Cancelling your booking

We always hope that you don't need to cancel your holiday booking but, if you do, please follow the below steps:

Complete the contact form as soon as you can or, if you booked through a booking agent, please contact your booking agent directly.

We always hope that you don't need to cancel your holiday booking but, if you do, please complete the contact form as soon as you can or, if you booked through a booking agent, please call your agent. Unfortunately, we will not issue a refund but you should consider whether your travel insurance policy would apply.

5.4 If we have to change or cancel your holiday

We do everything we can to provide the great holidays we advertise on our website. But very occasionally we find we can no longer offer the holiday people have booked, or, in exceptional circumstances, find we need to cancel your booking. If this happens to you, we'll advise you or your booking agent as soon as possible and offer one of the below options, subject to availability:

• A replacement holiday that's the equivalent value as what you had originally booked.

• A replacement holiday that's less expensive than the one you booked at the original booking date (together with a refund of the price difference).

• A full refund.

5.5 Refunds

If we issue you with a refund, we'll return your money in the same way you made your original payment - back to the same payment card, for example. If you've used coupons or vouchers to pay for your holiday, we may be able to transfer them to another holiday with us but, unfortunately, we can't refund coupons or vouchers

6. When you're on holiday

6.1 Checking in and checking out

We'll always do our best to give you the exact accommodation that you booked. But if you book a two-bedroom caravan holiday home and we don't have one available during your stay, we may put you in a three-bedroom caravan holiday home of the same grade instead. Please be aware that, although we don’t run as many activities on check-in days, most of our facilities are open.

You will receive your arrival information via email/SMS prior to your arrival on park. Please keep a look out for arrival information updates. Your arrival slot will be sent by email 7 days prior to your arrival day. Please bring your booking confirmation reference number (which can be quoted rather than showing the full document) together with your payment card and a form of photo identification the lead guest, before accommodation keys can be issued at check-in. We reserve the right to request photo identification to identify each adult member of your party. Fully paid accommodation will be held until 12pm on the day following your holiday start date.

Check-out time is 10am and we reserve the right to remove any items remaining in your accommodation after this time. Please remember to give us back the keys and always leave your accommodation in a clean and tidy condition. You are welcome to use the park facilities on your departure day. When you book any experiences such as activities and tables in restaurants etc. The last session you should book is 4pm.

6.2 The fun stuff

Check your booking confirmation or your ‘My Account’ to confirm you have booked a Haven package which includes Play Passes, giving you access to our swimming pools, activities and most other leisure and entertainment facilities at the park during your stay. If you have booked a Hideaway package, Play Passes are not included and cannot be added separately. Without a Play Pass you will only be able to gain access to the supermarket, arcades, restaurants and takeaways when you have booked a table or placed an order.

Some activities cost extra or need a deposit, and some may not be suitable for everyone – you can find out more about these and up-to-date pricing at Haven.com/experience or on the My Haven App We can only confirm the exact price of your activity when you book. We reserve the right to raise or lower our activities prices and deposits at any time before booking. Once you've booked and paid your deposit, we won't change your activity price. Please note that our entertainment and activities programme may be reduced outside of school and bank holidays.

The information on our website about acts, shows you what we've got planned for your holiday. If we advertise a certain act, we'll always do our best to make sure you see them. But if they can't make it, we'll replace them with similar acts. We'll do our best not to, but you should bear in mind that we might make alterations to or withdraw certain amenities, facilities, activities and/or entertainment shows, if required for reasons outside of our control.

6.3 Haven Caravan Cleanliness Guarantee

We take pride in the preparation of our accommodation so that you can enjoy a stress-free home from home whilst on holiday. We appreciate sometimes things do go wrong. If on arrival at your holiday home, you find it is not prepared to the high standards we expect, we request the opportunity to put things right.

If we are not able to, you will receive a full refund for the cost of your holiday. Please find below the steps that we require you to take in order to qualify for this refund:

• If eligible, report your concerns to a member of our Reception team or via the My Haven App as part of the check-in process and within 4 hours of your arrival. After rating your cleanliness on the App, we’ll ask if you would like to be contacted by a member of the team. Please accept this.

• If you reported your concerns between 9am-5pm, we will attend your holiday home within 2 hours. If you report any concerns outside of these hours, we will arrange for our team to attend within 2 hours of Reception team opening hours the following day.

• Our team will inspect the accommodation with you to review your concerns and, if agreed, arrange a re-clean.

• To ensure your holiday experience is not affected, we will clean the agreed areas within 2 hours of the accommodation being inspected.

• We will ask you to confirm you are happy with the cleanliness of your holiday home once the re-clean has been completed. If this is still not the high-level we expect, you will receive a full refund for the value of your holiday.

Failure to follow these steps, invalidates our Haven Caravan Cleanliness Guarantee (HCCG).

6.4 Activities

You can pre-book and pay for activities via haven.com/experience by using a debit card or credit card. All activities are subject to availability. Activities are not transferable to other parks and are valid within the current season only. Activity bookings will not appear on your booking confirmation or on your "My Account".

When booking an activity online you will be presented with an "Acceptance of Risk" form (which will contain any relevant terms and conditions of participation) and which you will sign on behalf of yourself and your party. For some activities, there may be an additional agreement to complete before the activity commences. Private letting guests will also be required to accept the terms when booking activities. For full experience terms and conditions please visit our experience terms and conditions.

You can cancel your activity via haven.com/experience up to 48 hours prior to the activity start time, after which any cancellations or amendments must be done by the on-park Activity and Leisure team. The activity cost will be refunded using the same payment method within up to 35 days. We cannot refund or transfer missed sessions unless the relevant person has left park due to an illness or emergency. In this case, please contact park to see if a refund is due. (which may take longer to process).

We reserve the right to raise or lower our activities prices and deposits at any time before booking. Once booked and your deposit paid we will not change your activity price. Please note that our entertainment and activities programme may be reduced outside of school and bank holidays.

Guests must arrive ten minutes prior to the start of the session as health and safety briefings are given. If you miss the safety briefing, you may not be able to take part in the session. The Activity and Leisure Duty Manager at your park has the overall responsibility for health and safety of the activity and can stop the session or ask a participant to leave at any time. In this case, no refund will be given. It is at the Duty Activity and Leisure Manager’s sole discretion to refuse service to any individual.

Activities have age, height, weight or ability restrictions so please familiarise yourself with these before booking as the participants must meet any requirements to take part, and if they don’t, they may be refused access to an activity and no refund will be given. Proof of age may be required for health and safety reasons. If you are concerned about the presence of allergens in the food in our creative sessions, please ask a member of our team for assistance.

6.5 Haven Wi-Fi

Only devices with a web browser and the ability to connect to a public service can access the public Wi-Fi network - please check your device for compatibility. All connections to the complimentary Wi-Fi will be subject to a "fair usage" policy. Device exclusions apply.

6.6 Keeping you safe and healthy

We want you to have fun at the park, but we need to ensure that we keep you safe. That could mean offering different activities or even, in the worst-case scenario, closing our facilities at short notice. We'll always try to tell you as soon as we know. And if there's an issue at a certain park that we know about before you book, we'll warn you. It's important that you always follow our advice for staying safe while you're with us and we have a few important ones designed to keep you safe.

For example: children under 8 must always be supervised and in the water with a responsible adult. One adult can be responsible for up to two children under 8 and must make sure that non-swimmers or beginners do not go out of their depth. We also ask that everyone in and around the water does exactly what our team ask, because your safety is our number one priority. Only competent swimmers may use certain flume rides.

Our venues are subject to maximum capacities set in accordance with our fire risk assessments and, entrance to venues is not guaranteed. Because our venues are so popular, seating cannot be guaranteed or reserved. Please be aware that some entertainment shows use strobe lighting.

We do not permit owners or guests to fly drones at the park. Similarly, in line with legislation and in accordance with health and safety advice, we only permit the use of electric scooters, Segway's, hoverboards or balance boards if they are part of an organised, on-park activity. Please check with the park direct if you can bring jet skis, boats and any other watercrafts.

6.7 Personal belongings

We take all reasonable steps to protect our premises and hope you will have no cause for concern during your holiday, but guests remain responsible for looking after their own belongings. Please remember to secure any vehicles or bicycles and try not to leave any valuable items on display. If you are bringing anything valuable on holiday you should check it is adequately covered by your insurance. We cannot accept any liability for loss or damage to your belongings unless it is due to our negligence.

6.8 Filming and Photography

Please bear in mind that you're not allowed to film or take photographs in our swimming pools and changing areas. Due to the popularity of Haven, we get requests from TV and other companies to film/photograph on the parks, many of which we accommodate. We also take our own Haven promotional films and photographs on the parks throughout the year. They could be shooting anywhere in the park but where we cannot close the area to guests we'll always try to make sure the filming doesn't affect your holiday and that you always know what's going on. In most cases we'll attempt to ensure images or footage obtained does not identify anybody directly but please avoid the shooting area if you would rather not be caught on camera. If you are identifiable in the content captured we will ask for your consent. Should you wish to withdraw your consent at any time you can request this and we will remove it from our library. Please see our privacy policy for more information on your rights.

6.9 Smoking, drugs and offensive weapons

There's no smoking of vaporisers, e-cigarettes and tobacco in any of our public buildings or accommodation, and we do our best to make sure guests do not smoke in these areas. We do have outdoor smoking areas, and these are clearly signposted. We have a zero-tolerance policy on illegal drugs, firearms and offensive weapons. If you take illegal drugs or any other illegal substance or are in possession of a firearm or offensive weapon (including pellet guns, ball-bearing guns, orb guns, other propellent guns or any other replica firearms), we will ask you to leave the park, without refund.

6.10 Illness and contagious diseases

Please let us know if you are unwell and you think it may affect our other guests. If we become aware, or have reasonable grounds to suspect, that you have contracted, or have arrived at one of our Parks with, a contagious disease or illness that has the potential to infect many people quickly; you and your party may be asked to go home without a refund. If this is not possible, then restrictions will be placed upon your activities and movements to prevent the disease or illness being transmitted to other guests.

6.11 Cutting your holiday short

We hope you'll have such a great time with us that you don't want to leave. But if you do end up going home early, we won't offer you a refund.

6.12 Damage to accommodation

We hope you don't have any mishaps while you're with us, but if your accommodation is damaged by you or someone in your party during your stay, we have the right to recover the cost of this from you, including any extra cleaning costs. We may also go into your caravan holiday home at a reasonable time (and on reasonable notice) during your holiday to check the state of things. Any damage to your accommodation could result in your booking being cancelled, with no refund. If there's an emergency, we can come into your accommodation without warning.

6.13 If you leave something behind

Let us know as soon as you realise you've left something behind. We'll do all we can to find it, although we're not liable if this isn't possible or if it's damaged. If we find it, we'll return it to you, but you will have to cover the postage costs.

6.14 Expected behaviours

At Haven, we want you to have fun but not at the expense or enjoyment of others, or without impacting our ability to provide a family friendly environment for everyone. Any violent, aggressive, anti-social or abusive behaviour will not be tolerated. You and your party will be asked to leave immediately if any such behaviour is displayed. We reserve the right to decline or cancel any future bookings with Haven if you or your party display any such behaviour.

Only alcohol purchased at Haven venues may be consumed by guests in those venues. If you, or other guests that are part of your booking, are found to be consuming alcohol in a venue that has not been purchased within it, you will be asked to leave, prohibited from attending these venues and may have the rest of their stay cancelled. Haven operates a right of admission refusal policy and reserves the right to deny entry to any licensed venue if it is believed that the guest’s behaviour will impact the enjoyment of others or impacts the ability to remain compliant with our licensing requirements.

6.15 Security

The following are operated in our parks with monitoring and maintaining safety on park, to prevent and detect crime and assist law enforcement (where necessary):

• CCTV

• Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)

• Body Worn Cameras (BWC) where required for everyone’s safety - the security team will always inform you before turning their BWC’s on.

These systems are operated for the protection of our guests, employees and premises from criminal activities. If we discover any criminal activity or alleged criminal activity through our use of CCTV, we will process this data for the purposes of preventing or detecting unlawful acts. The legal basis for our use of this information is in our Legitimate Interests to ensure the safety of guests and employees at our hotels and to assist with law enforcement. We may also use the footage to exercise and defend our legal rights. Further details can be found in our privacy policy.

If you or someone in your family does stray into a photo or video without meaning to and you want us to remove it from our library, we’ll do our best to do so.

7. Our promises to each other

9. Our Service Charter

We are always working hard to make sure everything is as you'd expect when you're on holiday with us. In the unfortunate event of an issue with your caravan, we promise to resolve it as quickly as we can.

If you have an emergency issue (such as loss of electricity, gas or water, or a major water leak) we'll work with our service providers to make sure your services are restored as soon as possible. We promise to fix it within 1 hour (24 hours a day, 7 days a week). If we are unable to fix an emergency issue within that time frame, then we offer a £49 compensation payment. Unfortunately, any problems of this nature which arise due to causes linked to external suppliers or regional outages are outside of our control and won't be subject to this compensation payment.

If you arrive at your accommodation and find any of the following essential issues:

problems with your boiler, cooker, fire, toilet, TV or shower; and/or

you need replacement bed linen, pillows or duvets

and we promise to fix it within 3 hours of receiving your report during our office opening hours (9am-5pm, 7 days a week).

If we're not able to fix an essential issue within the time promised, we will give you a £49 compensation payment. Please note that if we have failed to clean your holiday home to the standards we expect and the requirements of our Haven Caravan Cleanliness Guarantee are met and we have agreed a full refund, then the £49 compensation cannot be claimed in addition to this refund.

10. The small print

10.1 The holiday agreement

When you make a booking request, you're offering to buy one of our holidays, and you're agreeing to follow our terms and conditions. We do have the right to turn down your booking request- if, for example, we don't have the space, or we think you'd spoil things for our other guests. The agreement between you and us starts when:

• we accept your booking and deposit – and give you a booking confirmation; or

• we confirm your booking online or by phone; or

• your booking agent confirms your booking.

Our agreement is with you, as the lead guest you are making an agreement with us on behalf of everyone coming to the park with you. It is up to you to make sure that all of your party know about these terms and conditions and accept them. The agreement lasts until you and your party leave the park.

10.2. Validity of terms

If a court or a similar organisation questioned any of these terms, the rest of the agreement would still be valid. It would also still be valid if we allowed you to do something that we wouldn't normally allow under the agreement.

10.3 Identification requirements

We will conduct identity verification checks on the lead guest of the party shortly after you have made your booking using our appointed third-party verification service (operated by Experian or another third party pre-approved by us). This may involve the completion of further verification screening at our discretion, which may involve you providing photographic identification documents (valid driving licence or passport). Please note that it is your responsibility to provide full and accurate names and addresses of all guests. Due to timescales of administration tasks, bookings made within 30 days of the holiday start day may be declined if you are unable to provide evidence of your identity as lead guest at the time of booking.

Please note that it is also your responsibility as the lead guest to ensure that you provide full names and addresses of all adult guests (aged 18 and over) so that we may verify identities. If we do not receive such evidence within 14 days of request, we reserve the right to cancel the booking, without refund. We may also require photographic evidence of identity for adult guests at any time during their stay at park.

Failure to provide identification or failure to pass the identity verification checks may result in termination of your holiday and/or you being refused entry to the park or being asked to leave, without refund.

10.4 When things are our fault

We'll do our best to give you a great holiday, and we accept responsibility for things that go wrong that we should have foreseen or prevented when you booked. We'll deal reasonably and proportionately with any claims for loss or damage that are our fault, and we'll never try to avoid responsibility for things that the law says we can't.

10.5 Things beyond our control

Unfortunately, we can't take responsibility or pay compensation if we cancel or change your booking in any way because of events beyond our control. Neither can we accept any liability for any injury, loss or damage you suffer because of events beyond our control. 'Events beyond our control' will include (without limitation) fire, flood, explosion, storm or other weather damage, break-in, criminal damage, riots or civil strife, industrial action, natural or nuclear disaster, epidemics or pandemics, adverse weather conditions, war or threat of war, actual or threatened terrorist activity, and unavoidable technical problems with transport.

In the event of adverse weather, your booking will only be refunded if your chosen park is closed in the interests of health and safety. If you cannot travel on the day to your chosen park due to adverse weather, we will do our best to move your booking to an alternative date and/or different park, but refunds will not be provided. We recommend taking out appropriate insurance.

10.6 English law

Our terms are subject to English law. We both agree that English law applies to this agreement and we allow the English courts to make the decisions.

10.7 Using your personal information

When you book with us, you'll be giving us some personal information about you and the other people coming with you. We may use and process such personal information in accordance with our privacy policy. You may choose to provide us with information about your health or the health of members in your party, so we can assist you with any disability needs. This information will only be used for the purposes for which you provide it to us.

We'll only talk to you (or your booking agent) about your information. By booking with us, you're agreeing that we can use the information in accordance with our privacy policy and you're confirming that everyone who's coming on the break with you understands how we will process their personal data. If you're using a booking agent or other provider, make sure you look at their privacy policy to find out how they'll use your information.

10.8 The accuracy of our website

We do our best to make sure that the information on our website is accurate when we publish it, but the photos, layout plans, artists' impressions and so on are there to give an impression of what it's like at Haven. Not all accommodation is identical to the pictures shown on the website. Some facilities may also vary between the parks – please read park-specific information carefully. Accommodation decor, size and layout may also vary between parks.

10.9 Access to our parks

We reserve the right of entry to our parks and the right to refuse entry to our parks without prior notice.
