2. Your Booking
2.1. Bookings can only be made by an adult aged at least 18 years old.
2.2. You, as the person making the booking, will be responsible for all members of your party throughout the stay and their adherence to these Booking Terms and Conditions. You must notify us at the time of booking if you will not be staying as part of the party.
2.3. We can only discuss your booking with you unless you give us your express consent in writing to deal with another member of your party.
2.4. Your booking cannot be transferred without our express permission, at our absolute discretion and without statement of reason.
2.5. Your booking creates a licence to occupy the Accommodation to which the booking relates for the purposes of your holiday and nothing in these terms and conditions shall create the relationship of landlord and tenant between us and you.
2.6. We may accept or decline bookings entirely at our discretion and without statement of reason.

3. The Booking Process
3.1. All bookings are made via our website which generates a booking request only; it does not guarantee the availability of the Accommodation or acceptance of your booking.
3.2. We will confirm availability and acceptance of your booking as soon as possible to the email address you give and will send you an invoice for your Booking Deposit. This amount is payable immediately by BACS transfer or by debit or credit card via our online payment link or by telephone.
3.3. This Booking Deposit is non-refundable.
3.4. We recommend checking travel availability before confirming your booking with us.
3.5. If you do not pay your Booking Deposit within seven days, we may release the Accommodation.
3.6. Upon receipt of your Booking Deposit, we will confirm your booking by email (the Booking Confirmation), at which point the contract between us is made.
3.7. The difference between the total amount payable for the Accommodation and the Booking Deposit is referred to as the Balance and must be received in full the day before your departure from the campsite. This is payable in cash, by BACS transfer or by debit or credit card via our online payment link or in person.
3.8. It is your responsibility to check that the details on your booking are correct and notify us immediately of any discrepancies. We cannot accept responsibility for any errors.

4. Insurance
4.1. Booking Deposits are non-refundable and once we issue a Booking Confirmation, you will be responsible for the Balance, as outlined in clause 3.7. For the avoidance of doubt, Booking Deposits are not refundable under any circumstances, including where your booking is cancelled for any reason outside of your reasonable control, including without limitation, poor weather or illness.
4.2. Therefore, we strongly advise you to take out insurance:
4.2.1. to cover any cancellation of, change to, curtailment or delay in your holiday for any reason; and
4.2.2. that you take this insurance out at the time of booking.

5. Pricing
5.1. Our current tariff is set out on our website.
5.2. We reserve the right to periodically adjust our tariff.
5.3. Whilst we do our best to ensure our pricing is displayed correctly if Accommodation has been incorrectly priced, we reserve the right to charge the correct rate or give you the opportunity to cancel the booking, providing a full refund of monies paid to us but without further liability on our part.
5.4. All prices given include VAT. If the VAT rate changes after you have paid your Booking Deposit, additional or less VAT may be chargeable and it will be at our absolute discretion to reflect this change in our pricing.
5.5. Our website details the facilities included within our tariff. Other facilities such as showers, luggage collection, laundry facilities and device charging will be chargeable locally, as detailed on our website, and we may adjust the pricing for these services from time to time.

5.6.2. cannot be applied retrospectively to existing bookings;
5.6.3. can be amended or withdrawn at any time.
5.7 We will email your balance invoice to your booking email the night before your departure. Your balance is due before your departure from the campsite, except by prior arrangement.

6. Special requests

6.2. We offer a luggage collection service, payable locally, between Bryher Church Quay or Bar and the Campsite. This service meets the Tresco Boat Services boats that meet the Scillonian sailings each day. We do not meet other boats, except by prior arrangement and at our sole discretion, and we reserve the right to charge an additional fee for any such trip.

7. Group bookings
7.1. You must advise us of any group bookings at the point of booking.
7.2. In particular, we must be advised of any planned stag, hen or birthday party, for which you must obtain our prior permission. We reserve the right to refuse such groups without a statement of reason.
7.3. The person making the group booking will be responsible for all members of the party (see clause 2) and will be expected to ensure full payment for the booking is made. In the case of cancellation, our usual cancellation policy (see clause 9) does apply, and we recommend all members of the group are made aware of our Booking Terms and Conditions.
7.4 From time to time we may have large groups on site, such as school or scouting groups. Whilst we will endeavour to let you know this at the point of accepting your booking, if you would rather avoid such groups, it is your responsibility to check this at the point of booking.

8. If you wish to change your booking
8.1. You must notify us of any proposed changes to your booking, including to the number of people or dates of your booking. Whilst we will always endeavour to accommodate any change, we cannot guarantee this will be possible. Any changes are made at our absolute discretion, without statement of reason.
8.2. The Balance of your stay will be adjusted accordingly, notwithstanding the terms of our cancellation policy in clause 9.
8.3. If the changes to your booking lead to any additional Booking Deposit being due, this will be payable immediately and the booking changes will not be confirmed until this has been received.
8.4. We do not usually charge an administration fee for changes but reserve the right to do so if excessive changes are made.

9. If you cancel your booking
9.1. If you wish to cancel your booking, you must let us know by email or in writing as soon as possible. Your booking will be cancelled with effect from the day we receive cancellation notice.
9.2. For clarification, these cancellation terms apply including where you cancel your booking for any reason outside of your reasonable control, including without limitation, inclement weather or illness. We strongly recommend you take out appropriate travel insurance cover at the point of booking.
9.3. The Booking Deposit is non-refundable.
9.4. Our cancellation charges are set out below:
9.4.1. For the period from date of booking to 56 days before arrival: loss of Booking Deposit;
9.4.2. Within 56 days of arrival, or any time during your stay: 100% of Balance due for the booking.
9.5. Notwithstanding the above, if you cancel your booking, we will endeavour to secure another booking for the Accommodation at the same price and if we are successful you will only forfeit your Booking Deposit, minus a £20 administration fee per booking. If we are unable to secure another booking for the same dates as your booking then you will remain liable for the cancellation charges set out in clause 9.4 above.

10. If we change or cancel your booking:
10.1. We would not normally expect to have to change or cancel your booking, but sometimes we may be unable to provide the Accommodation you have booked on your reserved dates.
10.2. If we need to change or cancel your booking, we may at our absolute discretion offer you an alternative stay within the same calendar year. If this is not possible – or you refuse the alternative – your booking will be cancelled, and we will refund all monies paid by you to us for your booking.
10.3. In the event the cancellation is due to events outside our reasonable control, no refund of your Booking Deposit will be due. Events outside our reasonable control include, but are not limited to, weather, transport failure, drought, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, epidemic, pandemic, governmental guidance, natural disaster, subsidence, strikes or industrial action, terrorist attack, war or threat of war, civil commotion, riot, invasion, or failure of public or private utilities.
10.4. In any case, in the event of cancellation of your holiday, we will not be liable for any damages or other losses or additional costs you may incur including, but not limited to, transport costs or the costs of any other Accommodation whether on the islands or on the UK mainland.
