Thank you for requesting our brochure. Many of our customers have enquired over the years whether we book holidays to other destinations so we have decided to incorporate Just Sardinia, Just Sicily and Just Corsica. These beautiful islands are all located a short flight from the UK, each with their own character, distinctive history and culture and stunning coastlines. Sardinia is renowned for its fantastic beaches, Corsica for its spectacular scenery and Sicily for its food and wine along with its history and culture. We are also now offering holidays to the beautiful Italian island of Elba (see p136-139). We offer a high standard of service and a wealth of knowledge across all the islands. Our accommodation has been personally selected to suit all tastes and budgets and our Reservations Team who have visited the properties can give you their personal recommendations to find your perfect holiday.

AN ISLAND OF SURPRISES
An Island of Surprises Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean with a land surface of 24,090km2, yet it is still relatively unknown and refreshingly unspoilt. It takes approximately 4 hours from north to south and 2 hours from east to west if driving on the main roads. It has a wealth of sightseeing to offer visitors along the stunning coastline or in the rugged interior, Sardinia has it all! North East & Costa Smeralda In recent years, the once wild and almost deserted north east coast, home of a few fishermen and shepherds, has been transformed into one of the most desirable holiday destinations in the Mediterranean. For the wellheeled sailing fraternity and jet-set, the Costa Smeralda has blossomed into an enchanting playground. Encouraged by its success, other resorts from Santa Teresa to San Teodoro with Palau, Cannigione and Golfo Aranci in between have developed along the beautiful rugged coastline enhanced by a profusion of Mediterranean macchia among some astonishing rock formations. The translucent, unpolluted waters sparkle turquoise and away from the Costa Smeralda itself these less expensive but equally beautiful places have a more relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
‘The Emerald Coast’, a name inspired by the striking colour of the sea, nestles in the north east corner of the island. It was designed and developed by the Aga Khan in the 1960’s, to “preserve and protect this earthly paradise”. With Porto Cervo at its centre, the Costa Smeralda coastline stretches for 55km, with a harmonisation between Mediterranean architecture, natural landscape and seascape encompassing more than 80 beautiful bays, coves and sandy beaches including Baia Sardinia, Liscia di Vacca, Grande Pevero, Cala di Volpe, Capriccioli and Romazzino.
North West Sardinia’s north west coast features some beautiful seaside resorts interspersed with some really spectacular coastline and dramatic countryside. Travel along the coast to visit some of the island’s most picturesque beaches and inland to its lakes, forests, archaeological sites, Nuraghi and vineyards. This area is packed with interest and a rare mixture of natural beauty spots and historical sites.
Alghero
Central Sardinia
Now a popular holiday resort, Alghero is a charming old Catalan town often referred to as the Coral Riviera, nestled into the north west Sardinian coastline, with wonderful views and sunsets over the bay to the dramatic cliffs at Capo Caccia. The old walled town of Alghero, within the ancient ramparts and lookout towers, has a lively atmosphere with a good selection of shops, café bars and restaurants. It has an interesting history to discover manifested in its well preserved architecture. There is a 5km long white sandy beach stretching from the port and marina to Fertilia and other lovely coves and beaches on the way to Porto Conte.
Central Sardinia features rugged cliffs, tiny coves with clear blue sea and picturesque harbours on the eastern coast, and a mountainous interior with far reaching views from the Gennargentu peaks. There are lakes, waterfalls, gorges, fascinating geology and the native flora and fauna to discover. Barumini has the formidable Su Nuraxi complex and the Giara di Gesturi nearby has Nuraghi to discover along with herds of semi‑wild ponies. Some of Sardinia’s wildest beaches can be found south of Oristano on the west coast.
For advice & bookings call 01202 484858 or email holidays@justsardinia.co.uk
South Sardinia The south of Sardinia boasts a relatively unspoilt coastline with spectacular beaches and Caribbean‑like turquoise sea. There are scenic drives along the south east coast with alternating sheer cliffs and long stretches of sandy beaches, Roman ruins and impressive sand dunes on the south west coast. Cagliari situated centrally on the south coast is the islands capital, steeped in history and offering an array of shops and restaurants.

ABOUT SARDINIA WHY SARDINIA?
Why Sardinia? Sardinia is not a mainstream holiday destination but a sophisticated Italian island set in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, west of mainland Italy and south of Corsica. With 1,800km of coastline, it is renowned for white sandy beaches, fascinating rock formations and sparkling emerald sea. Yet being the second largest Mediterranean island, it has so much more to offer with an interesting history, a wild mountainous interior, vibrant towns with local traditions and warm and friendly people.

Easy Access by Air
Mediterranean Lifestyle
Something for Everyone
Sardinia is just a 2 hour flight from the UK. There are direct flights from UK regional airports including Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton, Bristol and Manchester. There are 3 airports in Sardinia: Olbia in the north east, Cagliari in the south and Alghero in the north west. There are also regular flights between mainland Italy and Sardinia for a combination holiday with cities such as Rome, Venice, Florence and with the island of Sicily.
Sardinia is an island that allows you to truly experience the very essence of Mediterranean life. The cuisine offers a rich repertoire of dishes, heavily influenced by the island’s various neighbours including Corsica and Italy, accompanied by impressive local wines. The mixing of game and farm produce (traditional with inland towns) and fish and seafood (traditional with coastal towns) result in a combination of flavours that is unique to Sardinia.
Sardinia has something for everyone from the jet-set world famous Costa Smeralda, with breathtaking scenery and exclusive hotels, to the unspoilt south coast with many deserted beaches and azure blue sea. Wherever you are in Sardinia, there will be a stunning coastline with beautiful bays and beaches, vibrant yet uncommercialised towns and villages, a mountainous interior with wonderful views of the island, refreshing lakes and waterfalls and an interesting history.
Holiday Collection
For example, there are around 7,000 ‘Nuraghi’ (mysterious stone dwellings dating back 3,500 years), throughout the island as a reminder of its prehistoric occupation, as well as numerous examples of Roman architecture.

AN ISLAND OF SURPRISES
An Island of Surprises Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean (25,700km2) divided into nine provinces. Each province is directly linked to the coast, aside from Enna (central Sicily), allowing travellers to freely swap the vibrancy of the cities for an idyllic bay view. North Sicily
East Sicily
With its idyllic coastal towns, surrounding wall of mountains and picturesque beaches, it is unsurprising that tourists flock to northern Sicily throughout the year. Home to Palermo, Sicily’s capital as well as some of the island’s most popular and alluring towns, such as Cefalù and Geraci Siculo, considered to be one of Italy’s most beautiful villages. Northern Sicily is bursting with charm, character and history.
With the gateway city of Catania, the fertile eastern slopes of Mount Etna with pretty hillside towns, vineyards, citrus groves and rocky coastlines, the east of Sicily boasts dramatic views across the Ionian Sea to Calabria on mainland Italy.
South East Sicily
North East Sicily Not only is north east Sicily home to Mount Etna, it also encompasses some of the most beautiful, popular towns on the island as well as a number of picturesque beaches. With its winding medieval streets, historic attractions and stunning backdrop, Taormina is arguably the most enchanting town on the island, honoured for inspiring the works of a several great icons such as Oscar Wilde and D.H. Lawrence.

Surviving centuries of civil war, foreign invasion and natural disasters, the south east of Sicily allures visitors from all over the world to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Syracuse and Val di Noto. Sicilian Baroque architecture and many historic towns situated
amongst the rugged Iblei mountains make up this interesting area of the island, along with a picturesque coastline and nature reserves.
South Sicily Southern Sicily is one of the more untouched, authentic regions of the island with olive and almond groves scattered across the countryside and stunning architectural monuments standing as testament to the island’s diverse history. With great places of interest to visit such as the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, Southern Sicily is not to be missed!
Central Sicily With just a handful of towns and Enna at its centre, the vast interior that makes up central Sicily is mostly deplete of tourism with just miles of cornfields and rolling hills yet a picture of rural life on the island. With its Roman, Arab and Norman influences, there are a number
of places of historic interest including Villa Romana del Casale, Sicily’s finest Roman site.
West Sicily Different from the rest of the island, the west of Sicily has always been off the beaten track. Historically there were Phoenician and Arab invaders who influenced the architecture and food which can still be seen and tasted today.
The Islands of Sicily The volcanic Aeolian Islands are a listed UNESCO Site. Situated off the north coast, they are reached by hydrofoil from Cefalù and Milazzo. Ustica is 60km north of Palermo and the Egadi Islands are off the west coast, all accessed by hydrofoil from Palermo and Trapani respectively. The Pelagie Islands are 200km off the south coast reached by ferry (5/8hrs) from Porto Empedocle, Agrigento. Pantelleria, is accessed by ferry from Trapani (4hrs) or hydrofoil from Mazara del Vallo (2hrs, high season).

WHY SICILY?
Why Sicily? Despite its close proximity to the Italian mainland, the beautiful island of Sicily remains distinctive in both its history and culture, offering even seasoned travellers a unique and memorable taste of the Mediterranean. Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean with nine provinces dividing its intensely cultivated landscape. The Sicilians, renowned for prizing their unique heritage, welcome travellers looking to engage with the Sicilian culture and therefore offer a truly authentic Mediterranean experience to those willing to explore it. Immersed in an exceptionally diverse history, Sicily is widely understood to be not only an island of contrasts due to its Eastern and Western archaeological divide, but a world entirely unto itself.
Easy Access by Air

Something for Everyone
Separated by just 3km of water from Southern Italy, Sicily is approximately a 3 hour flight from the UK.

Sicily has 4 international airports: Catania (Fontanarossa, east), Palermo (Punta Raisi, north west), Trapani (Birgi, west) and Comiso (south). There are also regular flights to Sicily from mainland Italy and Sardinia for a combination holiday.
Embracing a kaleidoscope of cultural influences, Sicily offers a taste of the Mediterranean unlike any other island. Whilst it is still very much a part of Italy, Sicily and its inhabitants uphold the island’s cultural autonomy with pride. Its a fusion of cultures not only impacts greatly upon the island’s archaeology, but also its cuisine, dialect and traditions, making Sicily a uniquely charming holiday destination.
From historical attractions to idyllic beaches, local delicacies to family friendly dining, the island of Sicily is able to accommodate all ages and preferences. As an Italian island, Sicily welcomes families with children of all ages and offers a range of activities to suit both parent and child alike.

Climate Sicily boasts an all year round warm climate, particularly hot and dry from May to October, with cooler temperatures up in the mountains. Whilst the Sirocco (from the Sahara to the south) and mistral (from the north west) winds can blow during the summer months, the island generally maintains a pleasant climate which promotes the growth of olives, almonds, citrus fruits and vines. Winters are generally mild on the coast but it can snow on Mount Etna! Average daily temperatures F and C

An Island of Surprises Covering an area of 8,741km², Corsica is the 4th largest island in the Mediterranean but significantly smaller than the islands of Sicily and Sardinia and with only 36 inhabitants per km², it is one of the least densely populated places in Europe. Although popular with travellers, commercial development is very tightly controlled and it is the traditional architecture that gives the island its character. La Balagne Often referred to as the Garden of Corsica, La Balagne is famous for its fertile soils, coves of golden sand, winding coastline and charming, historic villages. The region is one of the largest producers of olives, olive oil, almonds and honey on the island and plays host to numerous, highly-rated vineyards. With its rich landscapes, hiking trails and the beautiful clear waters of the north west quarter of the island, La Balagne incorporating Calvi and L’Île Rousse is the perfect place to experience some authentic Corsican charm.
North East The north eastern tip of Corsica, Cap Corse, is the finger of land pointing into the Tyrrhenian Sea, with St Florent and Bastia
108 Holiday Collection
at its western and eastern bases. It is 14.5km across at its widest part and 37km long, yet has 10 mountain peaks over 1,000m. It is one of the most rugged parts of the island with 10 mountain peaks, a handful of small fishing villages including Erbalunga, a number of impressive beaches including the famous black sands of Nonza and 100km drive around the perimeter with views out to the island of Elba.
Bastia is the second largest town on Corsica, the old town with imposing buildings, Cathédrale Sainte-Marie, market square, Place de St Nicholas and charming port. Bastia has ferries to Italy, France and Elba and an international airport. In contrast, Moriani Plage, 20km to the south, is a section of an almost endless beach and situated in the fertile Costa Verde region of the island yet sheltered by dramatic mountains. From here the road leads south to Corse du Sud with the historic towns of Aléria (30km) and Solenzara (60km).
L’Extreme Sud Covering south east Corsica from Solenzara along the spine of the Alta Rocca mountains, the Extreme South of Corsica encompasses many renowned towns such as Bonifacio and Porto Vecchio, beautiful beaches, turquoise seas, verdant countryside, vast forests and rugged mountains, all interspersed with typical Corsican villages.
This part of the south of Corsica has a rich history and a reputation for being one of the most beautiful places in the Mediterranean.
Valinco & the West Coast By far the most rugged part of Corsica’s western coastline is the 200km stretch from the Revellata peninsula west of Calvi, down to Ajaccio. Towns and villages including Galéria, Girolata and Piana remain relatively quiet due to their restricted accessibility when compared to many other settlements on the island.
In contrast, further south, Ajaccio Bay, stretching from Parata to Monte Bianco and La Valinco, running from Monte Bianco to Campomoro have more populated settlements including Ajaccio itself, Porticcio, Propriano and smaller villages such as Portigliolo, Porto Pollo and Belvedère-Campomoro. There are many beautiful, sandy beaches interspersed with dramatic sea cliffs and a clear, turquoise sea providing stunning scenery.

Sat Nav / GPS If you own a sat nav which also covers Europe we would recommend taking this on holiday with you (rentals through car hire companies can be costly with limited availability) for ease of exploring of the island. There is no postcode system on the islands so, as part of your driving directions, we will send you your accommodation’s Latitude and Longitude which can be inserted into your sat nav.

The DVLA have abolished the paper counterpart of the UK photocard driving licence and all information relating to fines and penalty points is only be available online from the DVLA.

Health & Safety Your wellbeing whilst on holiday is of prime importance to us and we will do our best to ensure your holiday is safe and trouble free by working with our accommodation and service providers. It is, however, important to remember that standards abroad are not always the same as those we would expect at home and so we do ask you to take care while you are away. We strongly urge you to follow the safety guidelines detailed in our documentation plus any extra information afforded by individual service providers.
Emergency Number You will receive our emergency telephone number for your use in resort in case of need. We also detail in our holiday documentation emergency numbers for police, fire, ambulance and road assistance.
Complaints In the unlikely event of dissatisfaction with an element of your holiday, we would stress to you to let your Rep or accommodation reception know about it so that we can rectify the situation as soon as possible. It is much better to solve any issues during your holiday than to wait until you return home. (Please see Terms & Conditions p150 for complaints procedure.)

are unlikely to change traveller’s cheques but do accept most major credit cards.

Whilst the range of products available in shops continues to improve, please remember it is the Mediterranean so certain items might not be readily available. Villas & Apartments - have a minimum of a fridge, hob, sink, storage, crockery and utensils but some will not have kettles, toasters, microwaves or ovens (please ask our Reservations Team for details).

TERMS & CONDITIONS
Terms & Conditions Who We Are Just Sardinia, Just Sicily and Just Corsica are all trading names of Hargreaves & Nurse Ltd. Registration Number: 4080294 (and VAT registered number 760 536 139). Registered Office: 14 Silver Business Park, Airfield Way, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 3TA. What We Sell Package Holidays A “package holiday” is a combination of at least two elements which may include accommodation, ground transportation i.e. a hire car or transfer, flights or other resort services which form a significant part of your holiday and booked through us at an inclusive price. These holidays are protected under the Package Tours Regulations. These regulations require us to provide security for the monies that you pay for the package holidays booked from this brochure or website (see Your Financial Protection). Accommodation Only An “accommodation only” booking is a single element of accommodation booked through us. If you book accommodation through us, we will accept responsibility for your booking in accordance with the terms set out in the relevant sections below. As this is a single component, the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations do not apply. However Hargreaves & Nurse Ltd will protect your money under our ABTA bond (see Your Financial Protection). Your Financial Protection The Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992 require us to provide security for the monies that you pay for the package holidays booked from the website & brochure. We provide this security by way of an ATOL (Air Travel Organiser’s Licence) for holidays that include a flight in the package (ATOL number 10217) administered by the Civil Aviation Authority and a bond held by ABTA for holidays that do not include flights in the package (ABTA number W6775). ATOL Hargreaves & Nurse Ltd provide full financial protection for our “package holidays”. For flight based holidays this is through our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 10217. For further information visit the ATOL website at www. atol.org.uk . The price of our air holiday packages includes the amount of £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the CAA. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. You must take this certificate with you when you travel. (This can be as a PDF on your mobile device.) We will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where we aren’t able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or
your credit card issuer where applicable). If we are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. ABTA We are a Member of ABTA, membership number W6775. When you buy a package holiday that doesn’t include a flight, i.e. accommodation, car hire or transfer you are protected by way of a bond held by ABTA and provided by T&G Managing Agents of IICH Ltd. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct.

Your Contract Your contract is made on the terms of these conditions, which are governed by English Law and the jurisdiction of the English Courts. You may, however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you wish to do so. When you make a booking you guarantee that you are over 18 years and have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions. A contract will exist as soon as you or your travel agent call, email, book online, live chat or fax our sales office to make a booking, and we reserve all the elements of your holiday and confirm the booking to you (verbally, in person, on the telephone, online or in writing). A booking reference number will be given to you at this time. By asking us to confirm your holiday booking you are accepting the terms of this agreement and consent to us processing personal information about you and other members of your party (see Data Protection). Your contract is made on the terms of these booking conditions. You will be required to pay a deposit of £120 for each person (including infants) when you book. Please note your booking deposit maybe increased or there may be a charge payable for some accommodation or flight bookings where it is necessary to secure specific facilities with full payment at time of booking e.g. specific types of airline tickets or special offers. The balance must be paid at least 8 weeks before departure otherwise the booking may be cancelled by us and you will be liable for cancellation charges as stated below. On receipt of our confirmation invoice, it is important that you check all details are correct, including the spelling of all names, and if they are not correct you must contact your travel agent or us immediately. Any changes must be brought to our attention before your documentation is issued (usually 2/3 weeks before departure) or you will be liable for any costs incurred for the re-issuing of tickets and travel documents. Hargreaves & Nurse Ltd acts solely and exclusively in the capacity as an Agent for the supplier, Treat Company srl. trading as Treat
Emotions in the sale of any excursion or activity mentioned in our brochure or on our website. When making a booking for any excursion or activity, you accept that you are entering in to a contract directly between yourself and the supplier of the excursion or activity. No excursions or activities that you may choose to purchase either before or during your holiday form any part of your package holiday provided by us and your contract for any such excursions is between yourself and the excursion, activity or accommodation provider. We are not responsible for the provision of any excursion or activity. In the event that any excursion or activity is cancelled, altered or amended, any issues arising should be taken up directly with the provider.
Your Holiday Price Prices included in the brochure and website are in UK pounds and were calculated using an exchange rate of 1.15 Euros to £1 on the 14 November 2016 however, we reserve the right to change any of those prices from time to time. We will be able to tell you the up to date price of your holiday and of any other services advertised in this brochure and website before your contract is confirmed at the time of booking. Changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. However there will be no change within 30 days of your departure. We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements, you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. Should you decide to cancel: 1) you must do so within 14 days from the date on your final invoice 2) We will provide a refund of insurance premiums paid to us if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your holiday cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. When you buy a flight based holiday through a travel agent, all monies you pay to the travel agent are held by them on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust at all times. This is subject to the agent’s obligation to pay it to us so long as we do not fail. If we fail, any money held at that time by the agent, or subsequently accepted from you by them, is and continues to be held on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation to pay that money to us. When you buy a holiday not including a flight, all monies you pay to the travel agent are held by them on our behalf at all times. Please note that all prices quoted on our website include early booking offers, supplements and reductions.
If We Change or Cancel Your Holiday Package Holidays It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your travel arrangements, but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance. Occasionally, we may have to make changes and we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these changes will be minor and we will advise you or your travel agent of them at the earliest possible date. We also reserve the right in any circumstance to cancel your travel arrangements, for example, if the minimum number of clients required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel it. However, we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 8 weeks before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance. If we are unable to provide the booked travel arrangements, you can either have a refund of all monies paid or accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available. (We will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value.) If it is necessary to cancel your travel arrangements, we will pay to you compensation as set out in this clause. Please note that carriers such as airlines mentioned in the brochure/website may be subject to change and such a change is deemed to be a minor change. Other examples of minor changes include alteration of your outward/ return flights by less than 12 hours, changes of aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same standard. Major Changes We consider a major change as one involving a change or substitution of accommodation to a lower grade than stated in our website or brochure (whether star rating or our own vine rating), a change of UK departure airport (except between London airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, City Airport, Luton, Stansted and Southend), a change in the time of your departure or return flight by more than 12 hours (but not a flight delay as this is covered under insurance). These changes are only examples and there may be other significant changes which constitute major changes. Period before departure Compensation when a major change payable is notified per passenger More than 56 days NIL 55‑29 days £10 28‑7 days £15 Less than 7 days £25 Child Pro‑rata This standard payment will not affect your statutory or other legal rights. The compensation that we offer does not exclude you from claiming more if you are entitled to do so. Important Note-Events Beyond Our Control Force Majeure: We will not pay you compensation if we have to cancel or change your travel arrangements in any way because of unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control. These can include, for example, war, riot, industrial dispute, terrorist activity and its consequences, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, epidemics and pandemics and unavoidable technical problems with transport. Accommodation Only We reserve the right to change or cancel your booking. Subject to the note below, if we make a change and you don’t want to accept it, you can take any alternative accommodation we

TERMS & CONDITIONS
Terms & Conditions... are able to offer you (you will pay the increase in cost if the replacement is advertised at a higher price than your original booking, or receive a refund of the difference if it is less expensive) or a refund of the money you have paid to us. This does not apply where the change is not material. Examples of non-material changes include, but are not limited to, temporary withdrawal of facilities or seasonal unavailability of amenities. Subject to the note below, if we have to cancel, again we may be able to offer you an alternative. If you accept it, you will pay the difference if it was advertised at a higher price than your original accommodation, or receive a refund of the difference if it was advertised at a lower price, or we will refund the monies you have paid us for your accommodation. We will not be responsible to pay any compensation following a change or a cancellation by us. Any amendment or cancellation fees you incur in terms of other arrangements you have made with other providers under separate contracts are not claimable from us. Important Note Force Majeure: If a change or cancellation occurs because of circumstances beyond our control, for example war, riot, industrial dispute, actual or threatened terrorist activity and its consequences, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, flood, epidemic or pandemic illness and all similar situations we will have no liability to you. No compensation, costs, expenses or any other sums, including the cost of securing alternative accommodation will be paid by us.
If You Wish To Change Your Booking If, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your travel arrangements in any way, for example your chosen departure date or accommodation, we will do our utmost to make these changes but it may not always be possible. Any request for changes to be made must be in writing from the person who made the booking or your travel agent. You will be asked to pay an administration charge of £25, and any further cost we incur in making this alteration. You should be aware that these costs could increase the closer to the departure date that changes are made and you should contact us as soon as possible. Note: Certain travel arrangements (e.g. flight tickets) may not be changeable after a reservation has been made and any alteration request could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements. If all names change on any booking, then cancellation charges will apply. Any alterations made within 8 weeks of departure may be treated as cancellations and re-bookings. Please note: Once you have booked your own flight, a change of name and/or departure details are not always permitted by airlines. Please refer to your chosen flight carrier’s T&C’s. If You Wish To Cancel Your Booking You, or any member of your party, may cancel your travel arrangements at any time. Written notification from the person who made the booking or your travel agent must be received at our offices. Since we incur costs in cancelling your travel arrangements, you will have to pay cancellation charges as follows: No. of days before departure Over 56 55‑29 28‑22 21‑8 7‑0

Please note: When booking certain flights with some airlines, such as those that require full payment at the time of booking, a 100% cancellation charge from the time of booking will apply. You will also be advised if hotels/ offers are non-refundable. If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges.
Complaints If something is not satisfactory during your holiday, you must report it to our Resort Representative and the relevant supplier as soon as possible, who will do everything they can to resolve the problem. We would prefer to solve the problem locally, but if you fail to follow this simple procedure we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under this contract. If the matter cannot be resolved while you are on holiday, please email customerservices@ hnholidays.co.uk or write to us within 28 days of your return to allow the matter to be investigated properly. If a complaint cannot be settled between us you may, if you wish, refer the matter to arbitration. We offer ABTA’s scheme for the resolution of disputes which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to use ABTA’s simple procedure. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com. For injury and illness claims, you can request the ABTA Mediation Procedure and we have the option to agree to mediation. You can also access the European Commission Online Dispute (ODR) Resolution platform at www. ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. This ODR platform is a means of registering your complaint with us; it will not determine how your complaint should be resolved. Our Liability To You Package Holidays If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed by us or our suppliers, we will pay you appropriate compensation if this has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements. However we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to: You; or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel arrangements and where the failure is unforeseeable or unavoidable; or unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall. Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of twice the invoice total. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to: a) The contractual terms of the companies that provides the transportation for your travel arrangements. These terms are incorporated into this contract; and b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any
limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions. Accommodation Only We have a duty to select the accommodation providers with reasonable skill and care. We have no liability to you for the actual provision of the accommodation, except in cases where it is proved that we have breached that duty and damage to you has been caused. Therefore, providing we have selected the provider with reasonable care and skill, we will have no liability to you for anything that happens at the accommodation or any acts or omissions of the provider or others. We also have no liability in the following situations: i. Where the accommodation cannot be provided as booked, due to circumstances beyond our control (see the Note in clause ‘If We Change or Cancel Your Holiday’). ii. Where you incur any loss or damage that could not have been foreseen at the time of your booking, based on the information provided by you. iii. Where you incur any loss or damage that relates to any business activity. iv. Where any loss or damage relates to any services which do not form part of our contract with you. If we are found liable to you on any basis, we limit the amount we have to pay you to a maximum of three times the cost of your accommodation. This limit does not apply to cases involving death or injury.
Prompt Assistance In Resort If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed as a result of failures attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services, or as a result of failures due to unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall, and you suffer an injury or other material loss, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances. Anti-Social Behaviour When you book accommodation through us, you accept responsibility for the proper conduct of all members of your party during your stay. We reserve the right at any time to terminate the stay of any party member(s) whose behaviour is such, in the reasonable opinion of the accommodation provider or us, as to cause or to be likely to cause danger, upset or distress to anyone else or damage to property. Full cancellation charges will then apply and no refund will be given. Furthermore, we shall be under no obligation whatsoever to pay compensation or meet any costs or expenses (including but not limited to alternative accommodation) you may incur as a result of your stay being terminated. If you cause damage to the accommodation in which you are staying, you must fully reimburse the accommodation provider concerned for the cost of the damage before the end of your stay if the cost has been established by them or as soon as it has been established if later. You must also indemnify us for the full amount of any claim (including all legal costs) made against us by the accommodation provider or any third party as a result. This will also apply if, in the opinion of the transport carrier, you appear unfit to travel or are likely to cause disturbance or danger to other passengers.

We strongly urge you to follow the safety guidelines detailed in our documentation plus any extra information afforded by individual accommodation and service providers. All properties we offer receive a regular inspection as well as on going reviews throughout the season.

safety deposit facilities at your accommodation (there may be a small charge for this). Please take notice of advice given by our Representatives about local conditions. For Guidance and Information: Please check with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office email: TravelAdvicePublicEnquiries@fco.gov. uk or visit their website: www.gov.uk/browse/ abroad Inoculations: At the time of the website going live and the brochure going to print, there are no recommended inoculations for visiting Italy or France.

Data Protection Hargreaves & Nurse Ltd is committed to protecting your privacy. We will store and use the information which you supply to us and other members of your party, for purposes set out in our Privacy Policy.

Recording of Telephone Calls To ensure we carry out your instructions accurately and in order to help improve our service through staff training we monitor and record telephone calls. All recordings are and shall remain our sole property. Brochure & Website Accuracy We take great care to ensure that the facts in the brochure and on the website are checked in conjunction with our overseas suppliers and are as accurate as possible when the website and brochure are published. However, changes can and do occur after publication, which are beyond our control. For example: Sometimes a hotel may change from full waiter service to buffet service or vice versa; a pool maybe closed for maintenance or A/C may only be available at certain times of day and/or year. You will be informed about any changes at the time of booking if we know about them. If you have
already booked, we will do our best to tell you about changes, if there is time before departure and if we have been informed.
Low Season Availability Of Facilities Some advertised hotel facilities might not be available or fully operational in the early or late part of the season, depending on the number of guests at the hotel or weather conditions (e.g. A/C may not be turned on in low season and additional restaurants, bars and swimming pools may not be in use). Accommodation facilities are subject to change at the management’s discretion. We will endeavour to inform you as soon as possible of any changes that may affect your holiday, prior to your departure if we have been informed in time. Swimming Pools Unless otherwise stated swimming pools are not heated. The water in the swimming pools is fresh or sea water as stated on the accommodation page. Hotel swimming pools normally have a lifeguard and may be closed during lunch time and in the evenings and you may be asked to refrain from using the pool during these hours.
