Holiday accommodation terms and conditions

Please read these terms and conditions before booking your holiday accommodation. If you have any questions about them please do not hesitate to contact us.

Yaxham Waters Holiday Park Ltd lets out accommodation on behalf of itself, "The Company" or on behalf of other accommodation owner’s "Owners". Whether the accommodation is rented on behalf of The Company or Owners, you will be given the same price and you can be assured of the same standards.

Once the holiday confirmation is issued, the contract will be between you "The Holidaymaker" and The Company or Owner depending on which accommodation is booked.

The Company will deal with all aspects of your booking at all times either on behalf of itself or on behalf of Owners.

1 The Holidaymaker is the person named on the booking form, and he/she is responsible for the obligations and conditions of hire and must be at least 25 years old at the time of booking. The Holidaymaker shall not pass the booking to another party. The Holidaymaker must notify The Company of any changes to the number of people or pets staying at the property in writing before the booking starts. Whilst we always try to meet the requirements of The Booker, The Company does reserve the right to not accept the changes or to apply extra charges as appropriate.

2 Booking - A booking can be made using the online reservation system. If you don't have access to the internet or would prefer to discuss your holiday preferences, please call us on 01362 696750 or email info@yaxhamwaters.co.uk. We will help you find the right property for your holiday but reserve the right to refuse any booking. Calls to our office may be recorded for training and monitoring purposes. For properties that have special offers applied, it is the largest offer on the property that is valid at the time of booking, two special offers cannot be processed on one booking.

3 Payment - A booking deposit of £100 must be paid at the time of the booking and once paid, this is non-refundable except where authorised by statute. your booking can be paid by debit card or credit card. The booking is only confirmed after the deposit is received and a Booking Confirmation email sent from The Company to The Holidaymaker. The Company will contact you by email unless you advise that you prefer to be contacted by post. You should read the confirmation details carefully and contact the Agent immediately if anything is incorrect.

4 The balance of the booking is payable four weeks before the start of the holiday. For bookings made less than four weeks before the start of your holiday, the total amount is payable at the time of booking. If the balance of the booking is not paid by the due date, The Company on behalf of the Accommodation Owner shall be entitled to cancel the reservation and The Holidaymaker will forfeit the deposit. We will attempt to re-let the property, but should it remain empty the occupier will also be liable for the remaining balance. Rental prices may increase or decrease over time but you will be charged the price quoted on the website at the time of booking.

7 Stag or hen party groups and unaccompanied teenagers are not permitted at any of the properties. The General Manager may at his discretion give specific permission to any of the groups above but will request a substantial deposit which would be forfeited in its entirety should the group be noisy or cause disruption to other guests or damage to property.

If your cancellation is within the 4 weeks to arrival you may also be subject to a £75 administration fee. You are liable to pay the full amount if the property is not re-let, however if we are only able to relet part of your cancelled stay or the cancelled dates are re-let at a lower price, then you will receive a part refund.
