Our season starts earlier each year and our Spanish resorts of Vilanova Park and Playa Montroig are open from 15th March right through until the beginning of November – these locations are suitable for your summer family holiday but are also ideal for a short break or if you want to spoil yourself, with a second holiday. Our Buzzy Bee Clubs will be up and running from the 30th May and many of our locations and also we will have our Family ZZone at the resorts of La Loubine, Les Genets and Sequoia Parc – see page 7 and 8 for more details. As we said before, we offer unrivalled value and again our Inclusive Bargain Breaks which have proved so popular in the past are back again – these featured breaks of 8, 10 or 12 night duration include ferry, cabins and resort accommodation starting at an unbelievable €795 for a family of 4.

36 years of experience to bring you the experience of a lifetime It’s a Family affair here at KelAir CAMPOTEL – it’s our family, the Kellers, looking after yours. You can rely on our personal touch to make you holiday this year your holiday of a lifetime. KelAir Campotel resorts
Park Albatros
We have used the most effective form of market research possible in order to bring you the most prestigious resorts in France, Italy and Spain – we ourselves have holidayed at the resorts and our sales team have also stayed there. We know what we are talking about and only sites which guarantee the highest standards of quality have been chosen. All offer exceptional facilities in a safe and friendly environment, many of the sites are family owned and all offer superb water facilities in the most popular regions.
Accommodation
Those of you who have experienced a KelAir Campotel holiday before will know our high standard in accommodation. Our mobile homes are the ultimate in comfort with wooden decks and modern interiors. There is no need to fill up the car with unnecessary equipment – all of our accommodation comes equipped with barbecues and everything you will need to make your holiday an enjoyable break.
Couriers
How many times have you heard that the quality of your holiday is often dictated by the quality of the people you meet? Well, there will be plenty of other great families to meet up with, but one thing we can guarantee is that the KelAir Campotel couriers you meet on site will do their utmost to enhance your stay. We only choose the most competent and enthusiastic people 4
to look after our guests. They will welcome you on arrival and will be delighted to pass on all the local knowledge they have acquired, whether you are looking for the best shops, the best restaurants, the best bargains, they will point you in the right direction.
Kid’s Club
Club Buzzy Bee sets KelAir Campotel
holidays apart from other companies. We have personally selected a host of couriers to run our Kid’s Clubs, ensuring that every day your children will have a fun and action-packed time. The service
is provided free of charge and gives mum and dad some time to themselves. Safety is a priority and it is great for children to make new friends while ensuring that their holiday is an unforgettable experience.
Mums and Dads
It’s not all about looking after the children. After all, it’s mum and dad’s holiday as well. Mums and dads, like the children, can do as much or as little as they wish. Tennis, golf and some great swimming pools are just some of the activities on hand, or maybe just chill out with a book and a drink. The choice will be yours!

Connelly Family, Roscommon La Pinede
Teenagers
Children, mums and dads looked after. What about the teenagers? Well, just ask our reservation staff as some sites are specifically designed for teenagers. They are not forgotten at KelAir Campotel. Plenty of activities are designed with them in mind, there is the opportunity for them to meet other teenagers. Teenagers with sullen faces? On our sites it is usually teenagers with sunny faces!
Le Clarys Plage
Tots
We also cater for tots with full baby pack provided high chair, stroller and cot.
Travel Pack
Our experience of 36 years has taught us how to remove a lot of the hassle from family holidays. That is why we give each of our families who book an inclusive holiday a travel pack before
La Grande Métairie they depart. It includes a route guide to get you from your port/airport of entry to your site. There is a travel guide full of helpful hints for travelling in France/Italy/Spain, maps, tickets, car stickers, vouchers and all the little bits and pieces which might otherwise trigger alarm bells in the days before you go.
Reservations Staff
We know the value of top quality reservations staff. We need them to make sure your needs are looked after. They need to know what they are talking about, have a feel for the place and know the best way of getting there. That is why all of our expert reservations staff have either worked as couriers on our resorts or been on holiday there with their own families. They will tailor a package around your requirements, guaranteeing a personalised service for your family. That has been the strength of our business for over a quarter of a century and we know that is what will set us apart from others going in to the future.
First time with Campotel and we’re sorry we didn’t start years ago. A lovely family friendly relaxing break, ideal accommodation and excellent service made a very memorable holiday. LA LOUBINE

TEENS & TOTS IT’S YOUR HOLIDAY
Le Ruisseau
From teenagers...
Teenagers often fall between two stools when on holiday. They’re too young for adult entertainment and too old for children’s fun. Most of our resorts have a variety of amenities and activities especially designed for teenagers, such as discos, crazy golf, archery, bike hire, volleyball, tennis and football, to name a few. (Charges may apply to some of these activities) And not just that. From our experience, the combination of activities and atmosphere on our resorts will mean your reluctant teenagers just won’t want to leave!
...to tiny tots...
We know that travelling with young children is no easy task. Loading the car with bulky cots and stroller is a task in itself! Trying to organise an evening out while on holiday can be virtually impossible. Well, we’ve thought of it all. Holidaying with KelAir Campotel is a family affair and we’re here to make it easier for you.
Baby Pack
Book our complete baby pack and you’ll have a cot, high chair and stroller all ready and waiting in your accommodation when you arrive (Baby pack €30 or hire individually for €12 each). Please note that due to layout variations, cots may not fit in all double bedrooms. Accomm H Home Mercure1 All 3 Bed Type 2 Bed Altair Models Cot Fits In ✔ ✔ Double Room Cot Fits In ✔ ✔ ✔ Either Live Area Or Twin Room * Can accommodate cot in double room except Cypsela, Castell Montgri and Playa Montroig
IT’S YOUR HOLIDAY Do as much…
While the kids are having the time of their lives there’s no reason why you shouldn’t make the most of what the resorts have to offer. Take a dip in the pool or enjoy a set or two of tennis. Most of our resorts have great golf courses at close proximity. Lunch time doesn’t mean that you always have to cook. Many of our resorts have their own restaurant or snack bar serving the local treats. So, put your feet up and take a well earned break.
…or as little…
Maybe doing what you want means doing nothing at all. Well, that’s the best thing about a KelAir Campotel holiday – because, you can. Chill on your sunlounger with a glass of wine and read that best seller you’ve always meant to get to. You might even get a tan while you’re at it! Or why not pamper yourself with a relaxing Spa treatment.
…as you like!
It’s all about unwinding and having the time to do the things that you enjoy most. 6

FAMILY ZZONE FAMILY ZZONE
Join us at Camping La Loubine, Les Genets, or Sequoia Parc for family fun activities throughout the month of June. Family ZZone is designed with you in mind – do as little or as much as you want – great opportunity for kid’s and adults to make new and lasting friendships. In 2015 we extended our Family ZZone to three locations – it will run from 30th May to 2nd July with at least four family activities each week – it will work in conjunction with our Buzzy Bee club which has activities in the morning from Monday to Friday. June can be a little quieter on some resorts and in response to this we introduced Family ZZone - we don’t want you saying that you were bored, there was nothing to do etc., the campsite was quiet, with Family ZZone, this won’t happen, we promise.
Sample of Activities (from La Loubine 2015)
· Group cycle from campsite to Les Sables d’Olonne market via Cycle tracks while kid’s were at club · Wine tasting at local Cave · Kid’s Disco · Movie Night · Family Quiz with loads of prizes · Family afternoon at Chateau des Aventuries We have lots of new ideas for 2016...

ACTIVITIES
in the warm summer sun, the kids are having a ball. The Club is for children aged from 4 to 12 years and it’s packed full of exciting activities. On larger sites such as Carnac and Clarys Plage where numbers are bigger, we usually run a session for the younger kids in the mornings (4 to 7 year olds) and then one for the older ones in the afternoons (8 to 12 year olds). This ensures that your kids are making friends of a similar age and the activities are more suitable to their own age group. On all other campsites our Buzzy Bee couriers will organise one session in the mornings. The session will last between 2 and 2½hrs. All children from 4-12yrs will be invited to attend. The Club runs 5 days per week and is supervised by our very own Buzzy Bee couriers.
Relax! They’re in the safest of hands...
You can rest assured that your kids are not only having the time of their lives, but they’re in the very best of care. We carefully select our Buzzy Bee couriers each year and then put them through a special training course. For your kids’ safety and enjoyment we limit the numbers attending each session. So, make sure you get there on time! When they arrive at the Club you will be required to sign them in and likewise, when the session is over you must then sign them out.
TEEN CONNECT programme for teenagers (aged 13-16 years) for 2016 is available in the following campsites (11th July to 26th Aug): Domaine des Ormes, Le Genêts, Clarys Plage, La Loubine, La Pinède and La Grande Métairie. For the 2016 season, activities will take place on site e.g. Football, Tennis, Volleyball. A charge applies to these activities. For further information please contact our reservations team. One activity per week.
For the Younger ones...
Your younger children (4-7 year olds) will love the friendly and relaxed atmosphere of the Club. Making new friends is never a problem. Our couriers know exactly which games and activities they like best and if the kids have their own ideas – well, it is their Club, so anything can happen! See the blackboard on page 8 for samples of the activities you can expect them to get up to…
Action for the older kids!
Excitement and plenty of activity are what the older ones (8–12 year olds) are after. And there’s certainly no shortage of it at the Club. They’ll really enjoy the fun and camaraderie of actionpacked sessions with kids their own age. Here are some samples of what types of activities are on for them at the Club…
Le Littoral
PLEASE NOTE: Buzzy Bee is for your children’s entertainment. This is not a childcare facility, and children remain the responsibility of their parents or guardians at all times. Even though the clubs are free, the numbers admitted may be limited due to safety reasons. A charge may apply to certain activities. Children’s couriers are employed to supervise the Club and in the event of illness, it may not always be possible to find an immediate replacement. The above applies to all resorts.

WHY CHOOSE BRITTANY
There are so many reasons why Brittany has been one of the most popular holiday destinations with Irish families for decades. The rugged coastline is lined with fine golden beaches and innumerable rocky coves. Inland, the picturesque countryside is scattered with pretty villages and historic towns. The distinctive Breton culture is always in evidence, with many Celtic festivals taking place throughout the summer months. The region is rich in folklore and traditions of yesteryear. Seafood is a speciality, with many restaurants serving their fresh produce at the many quaint fishing ports. A trip to Brittany wouldn’t be the same without sampling the local crêpes and savoury galettes, which can be washed down with glass of local cider. An experience to savour. Forget the idea that the summer in Brittany is damp and wet. The coastal area of South Finistère enjoys long hours of glorious sunshine, with only moderate rainfall. The Gulf stream boosts the water temperature to make the whole coast ideal for yachting and watersports of all kind.

OUR OPINION
BRITTANY FRANCE • CLOSE TO ROSCOFF • BEACH AND TOWN WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE • BRING YOUR BIKES • Its very location makes this resort the perfect destination for families with small children, as well as families travelling to France for the first time. Just 150km from the port of Roscoff, there are no long drives involved. Even when you get there, there is a beach just across the road from the resort, while the seaside town of Bénodet is just a 15 minute walk away by the coastal walkway. For your added convenience, some of the KelAir Campotel accommodation is located close to the campsite facilities. Our Club Buzzy Bee will keep the kids more than busy while you take advantage of the wide range of facilities the resort has to offer, including a great water complex. Petit Train passes by the campsite at least 3 times daily into the town of Bénodet.
WHAT YOU THINK: A relaxing and peaceful holiday. Benodet is a ideal site for all age groups, with wonderful scenery and beaches. Plenty of activities for all. BUTLER FAMILY, CO DUBLIN

A well-deserved member of the Castels chain, Domaine des Ormes is set amidst the sprawling estate of a 16th century château. 250 acres of rambling greenery means that there’s plenty of space for all. No French château would be complete without its own lake. You can explore this one by pedalo or even try your hand at carp fishing. The whole family will love the extensive water complex, while mum and dad can take advantage of the 18 hole golf course on the grounds of the estate (handicap cert. required). Enjoy a refreshing drink at the bar or why not try out the tapas bar in the restaurant. In high season, the ‘animation’ team organises an amazing programme of daytime and evening activities for all the family to enjoy, ensures the kids never have a dull moment.
WHAT YOU THINK: Fabulous Site. So much for everybody to do and see here and in the area. Should have done a Kelair campsite holiday years ago! KELLY FAMILY, CO OFFALY

OUR OPINION
BRITTANY FRANCE • VERY BUSY IN HIGH SEASON • EXCELLENT ACTIVITIES PROGRAMME • BRING YOUR BIKES • A member of the prestigious Castels chain, this popular resort is located opposite Carnac’s famous pre-historic standing stones – all 3,000 of them! La Grande Métairie boasts an exceptional array of top class facilities, including a fantastic lagoon style water complex, a large football pitch and even its very own amphitheatre.

The kids certainly won’t be bored with our Club Buzzy Bee running five days a week, while the resort’s own ‘animation’ team organises an impressive range of activities including water sports, football tournaments and weekly disco nights during high season. Mum and dad will have plenty of time to relax and take in a game of tennis or enjoy a well deserved evening out at one of Carnac’s great restaurants.

WHY CHOOSE THE VENDÉE
The Vendée region is the ideal base for the perfect seaside holiday. Miles of glorious sandy beaches stretch as far as the eye can see. Just inland, rambling Pine forests provide shade from the warm summer sun. The Vendée boasts its own micro-climate and records the second highest number of sunshine hours in France. Watersports are very much part of the scene here. A veritable sunbather’s paradise. Bilbao The fashionable resorts of St. Jean de Monts and Les Sables d’Olonne are renowned for their sandy beaches, vibrant promenades and seafood restaurants. As in Brittany, seafood is a speciality here and mussels are commercially cultivated along the Vendéen coast. The region produces the Fief Vennden wines. Visit the picturesque town of Mareuil sur Lay and spend some time exploring the many vineyards that surround it.

OUR OPINION
VENDÉE FRANCE
• FANTASTIC LOCATION • 350M FROM THE BEACH • GREAT CYCLE PATHS • This modern campsite is located in the heart of the Vendée and is just 350m from Plage des Mouettes. Located at the front of the campsite is the pool complex with water slides for all the family, lagoons and a relaxing Jacuzzi. The bar terrace over looking the pool is ideal for relaxing after a long day exploring the local area and plays host to the frequent evening entertainment as well as showing GAA. The local supermarket is a mere 200m away, and what better way to explore the local area than hiring a bike from the local bike hire shop.
WHAT YOU THINK: This was a wonderful holiday. The facilities are first class. The Kelair staff were very professional. The activities on site, especially the Buzzy Bee Club were fantastic. We will definitely go back. NAUGHTON FAMILY, CO ROSCOMMON

Les Genêts is ideally located only 900m from the closest beach and a short drive from the promenade at St Jean de Monts. Surrounded by mature woodland, the campsite is modern and many of the emplacements are sandy – which is ideal for young children. The focal point of the site is its water complex which consists of an indoor pool, numerous outdoor pools, waterchutes and a lazy river! A resident “animateur” is on site during high season to entertain the children, while our own Club Buzzy Bee is always a firm favourite. There’s lots to do in the surrounding area: explore the nearby pine forests or enjoy hours of fun playing in the nearby sand dunes.
WHAT YOU THINK: Fantastic, Fun filled holiday for all the family. Highly recommend Kelair Campotel. Staff very friendly and helpful Buzzy Bee Club great for the kids. McAREE FAMILY CO MONAGHAN

LA LOUBINE Les Sables d’Olonne
Small/Medium Size Resort (386 Pitches) | KelAir Campotel has been bringing families to La Loubine for the past 17 years. OFFICIAL RATING
★★★★
OUR OPINION
VENDÉE FRANCE • GREAT WATER COMPLEX • GOOD FOR TEENAGERS IN HIGH SEASON • BRING YOUR BIKES • Originally a stone-built farm, La Loubine still maintains much of its rustic charm and ambience. The main building houses the quaint bar and restaurant which leads out to the relaxing sun terrace, overlooking the water complex. This intimate setting is a hive of activity in high season, when the resident animateur organises lots of fun and games for the entire family. In low season, relaxation and calmness prevail. Facilities include a superb pool area, with no less than three water chutes, jacuzzi, an indoor pool and sauna. We provide Club Buzzy Bee on this resort, while nearby you will find a great golf course, horse riding and an array of watersports. La Loubine is just 2 km from the closest sandy beach. The nearby Fôret d’Olonne has great walking and biking trails.
WHAT YOU THINK: We loved La Loubine. Excellent campsite with superb pools. The kids loved Buzzy Bee and we all enjoyed Family ZZone. Excellent holiday, Will definitely be back. SHAW FAMILY, CO KILDARE

If you’re looking for a classic beach holiday, look no further than La Dune des Sables. The resort overlooks a cove, perfect for sun bathing, while a few hundred metres further on takes you to a supervised bathing beach. The nearby Fôret d’Olonne has great walking and biking trails. The open pitches are perfect for soaking up the warm Vendéen sun, while the constant sea breeze is cooling, not to mention very healthy. Take a break from the beach and relax in the superb pool, complete with waterslide and mushroom fountain. The kids will be kept entertained by the resort ‘animateur’ who organises a range of daytime and evening fun for the whole family in July and August. Visit the old style fishing port of La Chaume and sip a cool drink in one of the many cafés dotted along the promenade.
WHAT YOU THINK: We really enjoyed the cycling tracks which were excellent and we also loved the pool area at La Dune Des Sables resort. June was a perfect time to come. STUART FAMILY, CO TIPPERARY

SPAIN HOW TO GET THERE WHY CHOOSE THE SOUTH WEST
The South West region of France has become increasingly popular holiday destination over the past few years. One of the reasons for this is that it enjoys a Mediterranean type climate without any of the crowds of the South of France. The region is characterised by sprawling Pine forest, some of the world’s largest sand dunes and unbeatable surfing conditions. Travel inland to explore the world famed Cognac distillery, while two hours further south takes you to the prestigious vineyards of Bordeaux. The eternally fashionable resort of Biarritz is set amidst the soaring Pyrenees and is an authentic experience in terms of its distinctive culture, ancient folklore and time-held traditions.

★★★★★
OUR OPINION
SOUTH WEST FRANCE
• LARGE WATER COMPLEX • SPACIOUS PITCHES • BRING YOUR BIKES • We have the pleasure of introducing you to Séquoia Parc. The big attraction of this area is its Mediterranean type climate, yet it’s much closer to the ferry ports than the Cote d’Azur. The resort itself is situated on the well-tended grounds of an old French estate and is a member of the Castels chain of Campsites – there’s no better accolade! With no less than 2,000m2 of swimming pool and spacious patio area to relax there’s plenty of room for everyone. The old stone farm buildings located in the main courtyard now houses the ambient restaurant and bar – the perfect place to sample the local cuisine. There are all the usual top-class facilities you’d expect from a resort of this calibre, including tennis, football, pony rides and a Restaurant or Take-away/ Pizzeria for when you don’t feel like cooking!

★★★★★
OUR OPINION
SOUTH WEST FRANCE • 20 MIN WALK TO BEACH • TOP-CLASS FACILITIES • GREAT CYCLE PATHS • AIRPORT 60 MINS • Part of the YELLOH! Village chain of parks; Sylvamar is a lively campsite and boasts an idyllic location. Situated on the southern coast of Les Landes, neighbouring the Basque country and in close proximity to the Pyrenees and Spain. This region is steeped in tradition with bullfights, Landais races, folklore and fine foods. The campsite is situated in a 37-acre pine forest and is within 20 minutes walk to the beach. Enjoy a drink or one of the local dishes in the bar and restaurant that overlooks a lagoon style water complex, with 2 heated pools, a lazy river, and triple waterslide. We advise an overnight stop on your journey to and from Labenne Océan when travelling by ferry, but we’re sure you’ll agree it’s worth every mile!
WHAT YOU THINK: A great resort with plenty of activities on your door step from surfing to fabulous cycle routes. Resort & accommodation are excellent. Fun for all the family from the moment you arrive. DAVIS FAMILY, CO LOUTH

WHY CHOOSE THE LANGUEDOC
This area is one of the most beautiful regions of France, nestled between the western Mediterranean and the Pyrenees where the locals consider themselves more Catalan than French and in certain areas like the old quarter of Perpignan (the capital) you hear Catalan being spoken. In more recent years lively resorts have grown up around the coast but life has changed little inland. A visit to Beziers which is the wine producing capital is a must along with a canal trip on the Midi Canal. Towards the Spanish border lies the beautiful fishing port of Collioure with its cobbled streets and within a two hour drive you have the opportunity to explore Barcelona.

• GOOD FOR YOUNG CHILDREN • BEAUTIFUL POOL COMPLEX • RELAXED RESORT • A sister site of La Sirène, it is much smaller and therefore more relaxing, situated only a mile from the nearest beach. A pleasant pool complex (heated in low season) is available for you to soak up those Mediterranean rays. All the wide range of sports and evening entertainment can be enjoyed over at La Sirène across the road. Noise can be heard from the night time entertainment .

A top quality campsite only three miles from the ancient hilltop village of Pals. Camping Cypsela is not so much a campsite, more an entire holiday complex. Situated within a pine-wooded area, the site is just over a mile from the beach of Playa de Pals. The large pool complex, with its waterfall, sunterrace and open-air bar, is like that of a luxury hotel. Teenagers can enjoy a wide range of sports; whilst the adventure play area and indoor children’s activity centre will be popular with younger children.

OUR OPINION
COSTA DORADA SPAIN
R FO ER EN OP ST EA • LOTS TO SEE & DO IN THE AREA • ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY • Commanding a hilltop location, this well landscaped campsite offers beautiful views towards the Mediterranean which lies only 4kms away. Boasting three pools (1 indoor with wellness centre) trying to fit all activities such as boules, tennis, gym, football or volleyball into a day will be the most difficult part. The centrepiece of the Vilanova Park is the old restored Catalan farmhouse which now houses the bar and restaurant. In high season the site comes alive at night with great entertainment. A bus stop outside the campsite will bring you direct to Barcelona airport or city centre.
WHAT YOU THINK: Camping Vilanova is a wonderful holiday park for all the family. Brilliant pool complex, Lovely staff and excellent transport links for easy access to locality. FLEMING FAMILY, CO MEATH

OUR OPINION
TUSCANY ITALY • IDEAL FOR YOUNG FAMILIES • GOOD LOCATION FOR EXPLORING • WALKING DISTANCE FROM BEACH • A long established site, which has been a firm favourite with Italian holiday makers for many years, it has been taken over by the owners of the award winning Norcenni Girasole. Set among high pine trees, which are a welcome relief from the warm sunshine, an 800m walk will take you to a beach of soft golden sand with beautiful views of the Bay of Baratti, the ideal place for a family seaside holiday. There’s so much to do on this site – a game of football, adventure trail in the woods: among beautiful pine trees are paths with bridges, air jumps, pulleys and nets! or rent a bike and explore the Estrusan coastline. In the evening you can relax on your deck with a glass of the locally produced Chianti or in high season enjoy some of the on site entertainment.
WHAT YOU THINK: Park Albatros has it all, Pools, food, entertainment, bikes and friendly and helpful staff. We’ve had our fourth fabulous holiday with Kelair—gets better every time!! GUCKAN FAMILY, CO CLARE

8-15 DAYS €70 €80
16-24 DAYS €80 €90
ACCIDENT & GENERAL MOTORING ASSISTANCE Without doubt Accident & General Motoring assistance is the best possible motor touring policy available. We don’t want to say it too loud, but check around with other operators and see if they can offer you this type of protection at our competitive rate, of €70 for up to 15 days; additional or part week €10. The A&G policy works in conjunction with Axa, who, through their experience and local network throughout Europe, provide any assistance needed. It is very much the case where you make a phone call, sit back and it all happens rather than a situation where trouble erupts and you have to solve your own problem seeking reimbursement on your return. The following tables show a summary of the Motoring and Personal Benefits. These are subject to the full terms, conditions and exclusions of the policy wording, which you will receive with your travel documents. A copy is available on request. Details of our Complaints Procedure are available on request. ACCIDENT & GENERAL MOTORING ASSISTANCE 1) Pre-departure Cover: If your vehicle becomes unavailable during the 7 days before your trip due to an accident, fire or theft and remains unavailable, we will pay for an equivalent replacement vehicle so that you can go ahead with your holiday, provided your policy is issued more than 7 days prior to departure date. 2) Roadside Assistance & Recovery Service: Up to €320. In the unfortunate event of a breakdown or an accident we will pay for roadside assistance, recovery to a local garage and emergency labour charges. 3) Emergency Repairs Following Break-In: Up to €225. We will cover the costs of making your vehicle secure following a break-in or attempted break-in. 4) Equivalent Replacement Vehicle: Up to €1,000. 5) Loss of Tent: Up to €130 per person/ €650 per party. If you are using your tent as accommodation and it is stolen or seriously damaged we will pay for the hire of a replacement or for emergency bed and breakfast. 6) Alternative Driver: In the event of the driver being declared medically unfit to drive the insured vehicle in the course of the trip, we will pay for the costs of bringing the vehicle and passengers back to Ireland. 7) Repatriation of Your Vehicle: Up to the market value in Ireland. 8) Repatriation of Your Passengers: No limit. 9) Vehicle Legal Protection: Up to €1,300. We will pay up to €1,300 in respect of legal costs incurred in defending you in a court. 10) Bail Bond: €1,300 Transfer. Please note, in order to avail of Motor Breakdown insurance cover you must not carry more than the number of persons recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Each person must be provided with a seat and seat belt. The most who can be insured in a single vehicle are 8 persons including the driver. You should notify your own insurance company if you are taking your car out of the country.

Facilities Resort facilities listed in this brochure do not form part of a contract. All facilities cited are correct at time of going to print. As we do not own/operate the resorts, the availability of facilities is, regrettably, beyond our control. KelAir Campotel cannot be held responsible for (a) facilities not being available at any time, (b) for additional facilities being provided which were not advertised in the brochure. Swimming Pools and Regulations General • Use of the pools is free and pools are generally not heated (unless otherwise specified). Some resorts require special bracelets to be worn in the swimming pool area at a refundable fee. There may be a charge for on-site Water Parks. Swimwear • Due to hygiene regulations, many park owners have banned swim shorts. Please pack conventional lycra-style swimwear, though they can usually be purchased locally. Conventional swimwear only is permitted in and around swimming pools, i.e. Speedo or boxer swimwear. No t-shirts or shorts to be worn. • Swimming caps may be required in Italy.

We strongly advise you supervise your children at all times when they are using swimming pool/ water chutes/slides.
Water Chutes and Waterslides • Each resort will have its own regulations clearly indicated, that may relate to age, height and opening times. Pools, water chutes and waterslides are used at the customers’ own risk. Barbecues Most resorts allow the use of barbecues. However, resort owners/local authorities may impose restrictions/bans on their use at any time during the season. Gas/charcoal barbecues are supplied with all our range of accommodation. Camping La Grande Metairie & Playa Montroig have charcoal bbqs.
Special Requests Special requests cannot be guaranteed. Your courier will be informed of your request and will do their utmost to meet your wishes. However, circumstances such as the way our accommodation is located on the resort and the departure pattern of preceding customers means it is not always possible to grant special requests, regardless of when you book your holiday. Special Requirements Should you have a special requirement, which is absolutely essential to your holiday enjoyment, please inform us in writing at the time of booking and we will do our utmost to honour your requirement, although this cannot be guaranteed.

Good Housekeeping Deposit (€100/£80) The purpose of this deposit is to ensure that all accommodation and equipment is returned to us at the same standard of cleanliness and functionality as which it was received on your arrival. In instances where the accommodation requires cleaning at the end of your stay, €20 / £20 an hour will be deducted from your deposit. Otherwise it will be refunded on your departure. Should your accommodation not be to your expectations on your arrival, please inform your courier or KelAir reception within one hour of your arrival.

Hotel Stops En Route With the exception of the campsites in Spain, Italy and the South of France, most resorts are within a day’s drive. Some people may not feel inclined to make the trip all at once and would like to relax and stay overnight en route.

While many of the facilities are available in June and early September, they are open at the discretion of the owners and may be unavailable outside of July and August. There are always shops; bars and restaurants open in the vicinity. However, should you require more precise information, our staff will be happy to oblige.

In general, most pitches are large enough to accommodate a regular sized car. However, larger vehicles may have to be parked away from your pitch. The location of KelAir Campotel pitches on each resort is at the discretion of the resort owner and so our accommodation is often located in numerous different areas of a resort. Small tents are not permitted on emplacements.
Club Buzzy Bee Please note that the KelAir Campotel Club Buzzy Bee is purely for childrens’ entertainment. It is not a childcare facility, and children remain the responsibility of parents/guardians at all times. For safety reasons, numbers admitted to the Clubs may be limited. Children must be signed in by a parent/guardian at the beginning of each session and signed out at the end of each session. Although the Clubs are free, a charge may apply to certain activities.
Couriers are employed to supervise the Clubs and in the event of illness or unforeseen circumstances, their position may not be possible to replace immediately. Money Matters You may get Euro from the majority of ATM machines by using your Banklink “Plus”, Pass “Cirrus” and credit cards (once you have a PIN number and subject to a small fee). Laser cards are now being accepted in more and more shops and restaurants. Contact your bank for more specific details. What To Pack and Not To Pack There’s no need to pack a hairdryer or iron, as these are available at KelAir Campotel resorts, from the courier, on request and subject to availability. It’s always a good idea to pack a common painkiller, such as Anadin, as these are only available from Pharmacies in France, Italy and Spain. We advise you bring a continental adapter for any electrical appliances and a car phone charger for charging your mobile phone.

In this Booking Form the word ‘Organiser’ means, Kellers Travel Limited trading as KelAir Campotel, the person who arranges your transport, accommodation etc., and who offers it as a holiday. ‘Consumer’ means you, the person who buys or agrees to buy the holiday or any person on whose behalf you agree to purchase the holiday and who is listed on the Booking Form or any other person to whom you transfer a holiday, which you have bought. 1. THE CONTRACT a) No contract shall arise until the Organiser has received this completed Booking Form together with a deposit or full payment for the holiday and has issued written confirmation of its acceptance to the Consumer. The terms of contract are contained solely in this booking form, the Organiser’s confirmation, the Organiser’s Brochure or other descriptive material, any airline or sailing ticket issued and the itinerary issued by the Organiser. b) T he Organiser reserves the right to terminate this contract if the behavior or conduct of a Consumer either prior to or during a holiday is likely to endanger the safety or well being of other Consumers in his company or that of the Consumer himself, the Organiser, or that of the Organiser’s representatives, contractors, agents or employees and the cancellation charges as provided for in Clause 10 of this Booking Form are payable by the Consumer.

PAYMENT The holiday must be paid for in full at least 8 weeks before the scheduled date of departure. If it is not paid by that date, the Organiser shall have the option to cancel the holiday. If the Organiser exercises that option or the Consumer cancels the holiday (which cancellation must be notified in writing to the Organiser) the cancellation charges detailed below are payable by the Consumer. Cancellation for Non-Payment. If the holiday is not paid for by the due date, the Organiser shall have the right to cancel the holiday. If the Organiser, at the request of the Consumer or Retailer, agrees to delay cancellation of the holiday, then if the Organiser subsequently cancels for non-payment, the cancellation charges set out in this Clause 10 shall apply and be payable by the Consumer. Because of the ever changing nature of airfare structures and the increasing availability of instant purchase air fares most of the flights which we sell must be paid for in full at the time of booking together with our normal deposit. Such airfares are non refundable and accordingly cancellation of holidays involving instant purchase/ticketed flights will incur loss of airfare together with our standard cancellation charges as detailed in this Clause 10.

LIABILITY The Organiser shall not be liable for any damage caused to the Consumer by the failure to perform the contract or the improper performance of the contract where the failure or the improper performance is due neither to any fault of the Organiser or Retailer acting on the Organiser’s behalf nor to that of another supplier of services because: (i) t he failures which occurs in the performance of the contract are attributable to the Consumer; (ii) such failures are attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of these services contracted for, and are unforeseeable or unavoidable; or (iii) such failures are due to: (a) unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of the Organiser, the Retailer acting on his behalf or other supplier of services, the consequences of which could not have been avoided if all due care had been exercised; or (b) an event which the Organiser, the Retailer acting on his behalf or the supplier of services, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall. In the case of damage other than death or personal injury or damage caused by defamation or by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Organiser the amount of compensation which will be paid to the Consumer will be limited to, in the case of an adult an amount equal to double the inclusive price of the Package to the adult concerned and in the case of a minor an amount equal to the inclusive price of the Package to the minor concerned.

Above that amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving that it was not negligent or otherwise at fault. Advance payments: If a passenger is killed or injured, the air carrier must make an advance payment, to cover immediate economic needs, within 15 days from the identification of the compensation. In the event of death, this advance payment shall not be less than 16,000 SDRs (approximately €20,000). Passenger delays: In the case of passenger delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for passenger delay is limited to 4,150 SDRs (approximately €5,100). Baggage delays: In case of baggage delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures.

Destruction, loss or damage to baggage: The air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to 1,000 SDRs (approximately €1,230).

Higher limits for baggage: A passenger can benefit from a higher liability limit by making a special declaration at the latest at check-in and by paying a supplementary fee. Complaints on baggage if the baggage is damaged, delayed, lost or destroyed, the passenger must write and complain to the air carrier as soon as possible. In the case of damage to the checked baggage, the passenger must write and complain within seven days, and in the case of delay within 21 days, in both cases from the date on which the baggage was placed at the passenger’s disposal. Liability of contracting and actual carriers: If the air carrier actually performing the flight is not the same as the actual carrier, the passenger has the right to address a complaint or to make a claim for damages against either.
