Bookings made via a third-party site will be refunded minus fees/commission charges incurred by us at the point of booking. Our usual cancellation policy applies to all other cancellations - please see below.

In the event your area goes into a local lockdown you must contact us within 3 days of a Government notification to inform us of this. A refund or change of dates will only be given in this instance unless the lockdown is within 3 days of your arrival date.

If guests choose not to accept a refund or change in dates when first offered & opt to keep the original arrival dates when a local lockdown is known to be happening or imminent, any monies paid will be non-refundable & no change of dates will be offered if guests are subsequently unable to travel due to travel restrictions.

 

Payments & Cancellations

 

A deposit of 25% will be required at the time of booking to be received by us within 7 days of your booking or as per the deposit conditions of the booking platform you booked through. This deposit is non-refundable.  For last minute bookings payment is to be received, in full, within 48 hours or immediately upon booking if arrival is 7 days or less from booking.

 

A damage deposit of £200 is required when the remainder of your balance is due (not applicable for AirBnB guests). This will be returned within 7 days of your departure (minus any breakages or damage costs, if applicable) once the dome/hut/facilities have been checked. 

 

Payment in full (including the damage deposit) will be required 6 weeks before arrival or as per the deposit conditions of the booking platform you booked through. 

 

Wild Wellingtons reserves the right to cancel a holiday where payment has not been received in accordance with the above terms, we will also request to have any charges paid if any are incurred due to or because of a missed or declined payment.

You are strongly advised to take out appropriate travel insurance with adequate covid cover to cover any cancellations (due to weather/illness etc.) made by yourself & for any other needs.

We are unable to refund due to weather conditions unless we close our accommodation at any point during your stay.

In the event of a no show or booking reduction (on or after arrival date) the full cost of the booking is charged.

 

In the unlikely event that we have no alternative but to cancel your booking due to an unavoidable personal site problem (excluding Covid related cancellations), a full refund will be offered – or alternative dates if suitable & available, however, if you request us to do so we will make every reasonable effort to find alternative accommodation of a similar nature & price. This does not apply to us cancelling your break if our T&C's are broken by any member of your group once you have arrived.

In the case of an emergency, fault or problem guests must allow the owners or their agent access to the accommodation if necessary.

Please be aware that whilst Wild Wellingtons has lawned areas, it is also a lovely, natural site situated in the countryside, therefore we do have stinging nettles, muddy patches (our wooded copse can be a bit boggy), brambles, insects, including midges, & a pond on site (which is fenced around the front only) so please ensure children are supervised by an adult at all times. 

The Site

In addition to Wild Wellingtons being a natural site, we do have a farm nearby, & so the usual farm noises can be heard from time to time.

As stated on our website we are off grid & though guests have access to a fridge, hobs & dishwasher in the communal kitchen cabin & our solar boxes charge small USB devices & provide light in the domes (subject to there being enough sunlight), we do not have Wi-Fi, power sockets or electric lighting.

Under no circumstances do we accept dogs.

Noise & Damages

In the interest of other guests, please ensure that no one in your party does anything to cause a nuisance to other guests. We ask that children do not go into the play areas between 10pm & 8.30am the next day.

We have a no loud noise policy after 11pm.

We do not accept stag, hen groups or large groups under the age of 30. Any group of this nature must be given approval to stay prior to booking.

If unreasonably noisy or unruly behaviour is brought to our notice, we reserve the right to ask you to leave & forfeit the remainder of your payment.
