ACTIVITIES
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. Why not have a round before lunch? 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. Relax on your sunlounger with a glass of the local wine and read that best seller you’ve always meant to get to. You might even get a tan while you’re at it!
…as you like!
It’s all about unwinding and having the time to do the things that you enjoy most.

ACTIVITIES

Teens to Tots…
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, 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!
(Available in high season only)
Entertainment programme for teenagers (aged 13-16
...to tiny tots...
We know that travelling to France 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.

Come join in all the fun at
Club Buzzy Bee Club Buzzy Bee runs from 6th June to 2nd September Buzzy Bee Club runs 5 days a week. La Grande Metairie – One 2½ hour session in the morning from 6th June to 1st July. From 4th July – 2nd Sept there will be two 2 hour sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. On all other campsites from 6th June to 2nd Sept there will be one 2½ hour session in the morning.
Boring…it’s not!
There’s never a dull moment at Club Buzzy Bee. We go to great lengths to make sure that when you’re relaxing 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 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.
SAMPLE BUZZY BEE TIMETABLE
Club Buzzy Bee is available at THE FOLLOWING RESORTS: • Domaine des Ormes • La Pointe St Gilles • La Grande Metairie • Clarys Plage • Les Genets • La Loubine • La Pinède • Séquoia Parc
MONDAY – Arts and crafts TUESDAY – Face painting & nature trail WEDNESDAY – French breakfast party and games THURSDAY – Talent show FRIDAY – Fancy dress party
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.
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! These are 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 action-packed sessions with kids their own age. Here are some samples of what types of activities are on for them at the Club…
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 You can rest assured that your kids are not only having find an immediate replacement. The above applies the time of their lives, but they’re in the very best of 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.

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.

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 1,000m2 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 oysters. 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 for when you don’t feel like cooking!

WHY CHOOSE THE LANGUEDOC ROUSILLON 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.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE LANGUEDOC ROUSILLON • PERPIGNAN. Capital city of Languedoc, on the Tet river, where Catalan culture is dominant in the language and cuisine, a big tourist attraction and good shopping town. • CARCASSONNE. Beautiful ancient, walled city, known for its Medieval festival during July and August, located between the Pyrenees and Black Mountains • BEZIERS. Famous for wine producing, visit the beautiful gothic cathedral of Saint Nazaire overlooking the city and the river Orbe • CANAL DU MIDI. Take a trip on the scenic canal which stretches 240km, some of the places on the canal worth visiting are Toulouse, Carcassonne, Beziers and Sete. • RESERVE AFRICAINE DE SIGEAN. Safari park.

KelAir Campotel are pleased to bring you Spain - widely known for Flamenco music and dance, bullfights, fantastic beaches and lots of sunshine, Spain has to offer much more than that COSTA BRAVA The Costa Brava, a 160-kilmetre stretch of beautiful, rugged coastline in the region of Catalonia in the north east corner of Spain. Its natural beauty, endless miles of sandy beaches and summer sunshine. The Costa stretches from Blanes, north of Barcelona, to Roses near the French border. Besides the obvious attractions of its many wonderful beaches, the Costa Brava (meaning Wild Coast) is also an ideal base from which to explore the countless treasures of Catalonia. The region capital of Barcelona must surely rank as one of the most fascinating cities on the planet with its mind blowing Gaudi architecture, Pabloe Picasso museum, Olympic village and world -famous La Rambla boulevard. The Salvador Dali museum at Figueres is one of the regions most popular tourist spots along with the Benedictine Monastery at Montserrat, perched high amid some extraordinary rock formations in the mountains to the north west of Barcelona.

Booking Conditions GENERAL Kellers Travel Limited, Trading as: KelAir Campotel. Registered Office: Main Street, Ballinasloe. All holidays in this brochure are sold by Kellers Travel Limited trading as KelAir Campotel hereafter refered to as The Organiser. License no: T.A.0148.
3. 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.
BOOKING CONDITIONS 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.
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. More than 42 days Deposit 31-42 days 60% 0-30 days 100%
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) The 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. Further, where, as a result of the Consumer’s actions or the actions of any other person who is listed on this Booking Form either or both of the following incidents occurs: (i) There is a delay or diversion to the means of transportation the subject of this contract; (ii) The accommodation in which the Consumer is staying is damaged; the Consumer, hereby agrees to indemnify the Organiser against any claim (including legal costs) made against the Organiser in relation to the occurrence of such incidents. 2. PERSONS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS It shall be the Consumer’s responsibility to disclose to the Organiser prior to booking any physical or mental condition of a member of his party, which may be relevant and no liability shall attach to the Organiser for the provision of an unsuitable holiday for a person with disabilities where disclosure of the special need has not been made to the Retailer or to the Organiser where the booking has been made directly with the Organiser. The Organiser reserves the right to decline to provide a holiday for a person with special needs where in the Organiser’s opinion that holiday would be inconsistent with the special needs of a person with disabilities.
4. SUBSTITUTION a) Where the Consumer is prevented from proceeding with the holiday, he may transfer his booking, having first given the Organiser reasonable notice in writing of his intention to do so before the departure date. The transferee from the Consumer must sign a Booking Form and comply with any other requirements of the Organiser applicable to the holiday. b) A Consumer who transfers a holiday booking shall be jointly and severally liable with the transferee to the Organiser for payment of any balance due in respect of the holiday and for a substitution fee of €30 per person substituted, subject to a maximum of €125 per booking (or such other greater sum as may be authorised). 5. ALTERATION BY CONSUMER A request for alteration must be in writing and must be accompanied by a payment of €30 per booking before ticketing and €60 after ticketing, which payment is not refundable. If the alteration is impractable the original holiday arrangement shall continue to apply. If only some of the Consumers booked request a change, which is found to be practicable, a price adjustment for all Consumers on the same booking may be payable and must be discharged on the date shown in the Organiser’s written confirmation of such change. If the Consumer in complying with the foregoing requirements makes default, the Organiser shall have the rights referred to in clause 3. In accordance with the provisions of Clause 1(a) the Consumer should be aware that some suppliers, such as carriers, impose cancellation fees and apply restrictions which are not
in the control of the Organiser and for which the Organiser shall not be held liable. 6. SPECIAL REQUESTS Special requests (e.g. porthole, adjacent cabins, adjacent accommodation), shall be communicated by the Consumer in writing to the Organiser at the time of making the booking. The Organiser shall use reasonable endeavour to fulfill such requests. The Organiser shall only be obliged to provide services in accordance with special requests where it specifically commits itself in writing to do so. No liability shall attach to the Organiser for failure to comply with a special request, which has not been confirmed by it in writing. 7. ALTERATIONS BY THE ORGANISER a) The Organiser reserves the right to alter, change, curtail or cancel a holiday. b) If as a consequence of ‘force majeure’ (as hereinafter defined in sub-paragraph (f) of this clause), the Organiser is obliged to curtail, alter, extend or cancel a holiday, the Consumer shall not be at liberty to maintain a claim for compensation or otherwise for any loss arising as a consequence of the said curtailment alteration, extension or cancellation of the holiday. c) A minimum number of bookings are required for a programme of holidays. The Organiser’s obligation to provide that programme shall be contingent upon the Organiser receiving and maintaining that minimum number of bookings. In the event that the Organiser does not receive the minimum number of bookings or having received such minimum number has that number reduced by reason of cancellations or transfer by consumers or otherwise, the Organiser shall be entitled to cancel or curtail the relevant programme at any time up to 4 weeks prior to the departure date and the Consumer shall not be entitled to make a claim for loss arising as a consequence of cancellation for curtailment in these circumstances. The Organiser shall notify the Consumer within seven days of any cancellation or curtailment necessitated by the foregoing circumstances. d) If prior to the departure date there is a cancellation, alteration, change or curtailment relating to a holiday, which results in more than 18 hours change in the time of departure, or a change of resort or in the type of accommodation offered, or some other change which fundamentally alters the holiday, the Organiser shall, if practicable, offer an alternative comparable holiday of at least similar standard or shall refund the Consumer all monies paid. Unless within seven days of issue of the offer of an alternative holiday it is accepted by the Consumer in writing, the Organiser shall assume that the Consumer has declined such offer and the Consumer shall only be entitled to return of payments made. e) Where the Organiser makes an alteration in the holiday as contemplated in sub-paragraph (d) of this clause the Consumer shall be entitled to receive compensation in accordance with the scale set out in this paragraph.

PRICE VARIATION All prices quoted are stated in Euro and are based on tariffs and exchange rates current and appropriate at the time of publication. If any of these vary, the cost of the holiday may increase or decrease accordingly. Any such increase/decrease must be paid by or refunded to the Consumer, however no variations shall be applied where their combined effect would result in an increase/decrease of less than 2% of the cost of the holiday. During the period of twenty days prior to departure date, the price stated in the brochure shall not be increased. “The circumstances in which the price may be varied shall only be to allow for changes in: a) transport costs, including the cost of fuel; b) dues, taxes or disembarkation fees at ports and airports, or c) the exchange rates which apply to the particular package.” 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) the 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. The Organiser’s liability will not exceed any limitation applicable under any international convention governing or relating to the provision of the service complained of in the place of where they are performed or due to be performed, even if that convention has not been ratified or applied in the Republic of Ireland. For international transport by air the provisions of the Warsaw Convention 1929 (as amended) relating to the carriage of passengers and their luggage by air or the EU Regulation on Air Carrier Liability for travel by air, may apply, throughout the flight and during boarding and disembarkation. For international transport by water the provisions of the Athens Convention relating to the Carriage of Passengers and their luggage by sea, 1974 applies. In respect of rail travel, the Berne Convention 1961, in respect of carriage by road, the Geneva Convention 1973; and, in respect of hotels, the Paris Convention 1962 may apply. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that the Organiser is to be regarded as having all benefits of any limitations of liability and compensation contained in any of these conventions or any other international conventions applicable to the Consumer’s holiday.
There are no financial limits to the liability for passenger injury or death. Fordamages up to 100,000 Special Drawing Rights (“SDRs”) (approximately E123,000) the air carrier cannot contest claims for compensation. Above that amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving that it was not negligent or otherwise at fault.
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 E5,100). 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. The liability for baggage delay is limited to 1,000 SDRs (approximately E1,230). Destruction, loss or damage to baggage: The air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to 1,000 SDRs (approximately E1,230). In the case of checked baggage, it is liable even if not at fault, unless the baggage was defective. In the case of unchecked baggage, the carrier is only liable only if at fault. 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. If the name or code of an air carrier is indicated that air carrier is the contracting air carrier. Time Limit for action: Any action in court to claim damages must be brought within two years from the date of arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived.
