The Greener Camping Club

We have chosen to be members of the Greener Camping Club, meaning we are a Greener Camping Club members-only ‘Certificated Campsite’. Membership costs £12 for the calendar year. This amount can be added to your camping fees when you book, (if you are not an existing member). Only one membership is required for each pitch. We can provide your membership confirmation email before you arrive for your holiday or you can contact them directly at www.greenercamping.org.

Payment

We request a 50% non- refundable deposit to secure your camping pitch booking. This is payable via bank transfer. Confirmed receipt of your deposit confirms your booking. The balance is requested 4 weeks before your stay. We will send you an email reminder. If you book when your stay is imminent, i.e. you book within 4 weeks of your stay, the full amount is required to secure the booking. This is payable by bank transfer or our online booking system. When making payments by bank transfer please give the surname of the person making the booking as the reference.

Cancellation by you

We understand that sometimes plans change. If you cancel more than 4 weeks before your stay, we may be able to offer you alternative dates subject to availability. If this is not possible, we keep the 50% deposit and you will not be required to pay the balance. If you cancel within 4 weeks of your stay and we can re-let your pitch, we keep the deposit but you will not be required to pay the balance. If we cannot re-let your pitch, no refund will be made (we retain your full payment).
If you cancel within 7 days of your stay, no refund will be made (we retain your full payment).
Upper Scolton Camping is not liable for refunds or expenses you incur in the unlikely event of extenuating circumstances beyond our control. Such circumstances include (but are not limited to) war, terrorism, riots or civil unrest, industrial action, flooding, natural disaster, epidemics, health risks or such similar events (‘Force Majeure’). In the unlikely event of such circumstances, you will not receive a refund but we may be able to offer alternative dates or, in certain circumstances, gift vouchers. If you are worried about the prospect of cancelling, please take out holiday insurance. Bookings are not transferrable to other guests without prior agreement from us in writing or email.

Cancellation by us

Such circumstances include (but are not limited to) war, terrorism, riots or civil unrest, industrial action, natural disaster, epidemics, health risks or similar events (‘Force Majeure’). In the unlikely event of such circumstances, you will not receive a refund but we may be able to offer alternative dates or, in certain circumstances, gift vouchers. Upper Scolton Camping cannot accept liability or responsibility for any loss, including consequential loss, caused by cancellation.
