w e n s ’ t a h W for 2018
We’re investing more this year... We’re continuing to invest over £150,000 on improving the park, making some accommodation refurbishments and doing some general park maintenance to make sure everything sparkles for 2018! In 2017 we spent over half a million pounds to improve the facilities and accommodation which helped us achieve 4 stars from Visit England. (That’s one of the highest rated in the region!)
Spectacular NEW shows & star guest appearances! The Mill Rythe team have become famous in their own right – they work their socks off to provide guests with some outstanding performances guaranteed to make you smile! 2017 saw some big star names visit us at Mill Rythe and 2018 will be no different! Keep an eye out online for our special guests. Here’s a few of our stars coming this year!

You will also be agreeing to abide by the Park Rules, which are available on our website. These rules incorporate Health and Safety and other regulations and legislation we must abide by, including the Park’s Site Licence Agreement as issued by the local authority. We aim to provide Terms & Conditions which are easily understandable. If there is any term that you do not understand, please discuss it with us before signing. 1. DEFINITIONS 1.1 When the following words are used in these Terms & Conditions, this is what they will mean: (a) Accommodation: the accommodation that we are providing to you as set out in the Booking, including the pitch and facilities; (b) Authorised Group Booking: a Booking, or series of related Bookings, which has been specifically authorised as such in writing by Away Resorts prior to acceptance of the Booking (see Clause 6.3); (c) Booking: your request to us for Accommodation; (d) Booking Confirmation: our acceptance of your Booking; (e) Event Outside Our Control: as defined in clause 13.2; (f) Park: the Away Resorts park at which you have booked to stay (g) Park Rules: the rules which apply on the Park, by which you agree to abide while you are on the Park. These can be viewed on our website and are displayed at the Park’s reception; (h) Away Resorts/we/our/us: Away Resorts Ltd. 1.2 When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these Terms, this will include email unless we say otherwise. 2. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU 2.1 You submit the Booking to us, but this does not mean we have accepted it. We may or may not do so. Our acceptance of the Booking will take place as described in clause 2.2. If we are unable to supply you with Accommodation, we will inform you of this and we will not accept the Booking. 2.2 These Terms & Conditions will become binding on you and us when we send you a Booking Confirmation, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. 2.3 These Terms & Conditions apply whether you make a Booking via our website, by email, post, telephone or in person. 3. PRICE, PAYMENT AND DEPOSIT 3.1 The price of the Accommodation will be set out at the time we confirm your Booking.

Within 56 days of the proposed travel date payment is required in full. 3.4 Once your Booking is confirmed you are responsible for payment of the balance, which is due at least 56 days prior to commencement of your holiday. If the balance remains unpaid after that time your Booking will be cancelled without a refund. 3.5 To ensure that we are able to communicate with our guests in a speedy and efficient manner all correspondence and invoicing will be via email. If a customer requests paper copies of any documentation be posted to them, a charge of £1.50 will be made per item requested to contribute towards the costs of administration and postage. 3.6 All discounts and special offers are subject to availability and we may withdraw or reduce them without notice at any time, up to confirmation of a Booking. 3.7 Ferry charges are not included within our prices but we can assist you with booking travel if requested. 4.

You will be able to find the latest version online at http://www.awayresorts.co.uk/terms-and-conditions/ . If we make any significant changes to our Terms & Conditions of Park Rules after you have booked, which affect your Booking, we will give you the option to cancel with a full refund.

The scheme covers holiday cancellation only. Guests are advised to arrange their own insurance cover for personal possessions, vehicle breakdown, emergency expenses, medical expenses etc. Refunds under the scheme will be made in respect of cancellations provided the following conditions are met: (a) Notification of cancellation is made immediately and in any case before the date of arrival and confirmed via email or in writing; (b) A Doctor’s Medical Certificate or other evidence is provided to show that the cancellation was unavoidable; (c) Only members of the party included on the Booking Form and their immediate families are covered; (d) The cancellation must relate to actual and certified illness, death or accidental injury, Jury Service, Court of Law Witness Summons and, provided the person is over 21 years of age, redundancy. (e) Identification will be required in order for the refund to be processed. 16 OUR RIGHTS TO CANCEL AND APPLICABLE REFUND 16.1 We may have to cancel a Booking due to the unavailability of key personnel or key facilities without which we cannot provide the Accommodation.
