We aim to make our holidays and facilities available and accessible for all. Please discuss your requirements with us in detail before making your booking, to ensure a holiday that will meet all your needs and expectations.
Honest advice We will provide honest and accurate advice - for example, which units are only suitable for some disabled guests with assistance, where wheelchair access is limited, and where wheelchair friendly accommodation is not suitable for bigger electric wheelchairs.
Please confirm your special requirements in writing. We regret that special requests cannot be made a condition of your booking as they are always subject to availability.

Cots and highchairs in Self-Catering accommodation are available for an extra charge. Cots in Self-Catering need to be located in the living area and in Dinner. You will need to bring your own cot linen. Please call 01780 782344 for full cost and hire deposit details. In all accommodation cots and highchairs need to be requested at the time of booking and are subject to availability.

We welcome well-trained dogs in selected accommodation at many Parks, but reserve the right to refuse certain breeds. We charge £40 per dog per 8/7/6 nights and £20 per dog per 5/4/3 nights, with a maximum of two dogs per booking. Please ensure your dog wears a collar and identity tag, and is on a lead under the control of a responsible adult at all times. We accept dogs in Standard accommodation excluding 2008 Model Caravans. We reserve the right to require the owner of any dog or pet considered a nuisance, or to be affecting the comfort of guests, to remove it from the Park. We do not allow on Park any breeds of dog listed under the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. At time of press, these were: any dog of a type known as the Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasiliero, plus any other type appearing to be bred for fighting.
Where your dog can’t go Dogs and other pets are not allowed entry to Park facilities, restaurants, food servery and swimming pool areas, with the exception of registered assistance dogs for the disabled. Please also note that at certain Parks dogs are not allowed on the beach between 1 May to end of October. (Note: where a public footpath or right of way crosses our Parks, dogs have every right to be there).
Registered assistance dogs for the disabled There’s no charge for registered assistance dogs for disabled guests, in Self-Catering or accommodation.
Other pets These may be permitted at the discretion of the Park General Manager. Please contact the Park direct to discuss charges prior to making your booking.

For the protection of guests and employees, anyone found to have such a condition may be confined, or requested to leave.
