We know that you will probably have some questions about your Hoburne Holiday that's why we have compiled a list of the most popular questions we get asked. If you have any questions that are not covered here then please feel free to use our contact form or give us a call.
Simply call the Park of your choice and they will be only too happy to talk through your requirements with you. Contact details for our seven Holiday Parks can be found on our contact form. Generally the Park Receptions will be able to take calls from 9.00am to 6:00pm Monday to Sunday (although times will vary per Park on Sundays).
UK Residents are able to pay via Mastercard, Visa, Visa Electron, Maestro or Personal Cheque.
All customers are also able to pay directly into our bank by using the following instructions:
Please remember to quote your booking reference (which begins with BK______) when you make the payment. You should also note that there is a bank charge of £7 to receive payment from non UK residents.
We require a deposit of £50.00 per week or part week for each unit of accommodation as well as the cost of the holiday cancellation cover if required.
If the first day of your proposed holiday is less than 42 days from the date of booking then you must pay us the full cost of the holiday at the time of booking. In the case of touring pitches you must pay us the full fee at the time of booking if this is less than £50.00. If the fee is more than £50.00 we require a minimum of £50.00 deposit with your booking.
You must pay the balance (if any) of the cost of your holiday to us not less than 42 days before the commencement of the holiday. If you do not pay any outstanding balance of the cost of your holiday by the due date (see above) we may treat you as having cancelled your booking.
For the avoidance of doubt, payment will only have been made under this contract when the monies have cleared into our bank account. You must allow for any reasonable delays in cheque clearance and we reserve the right to refuse any booking without explanation.
Your booking is a legally binding contract and like all contracts you should protect yourself in case things go wrong. We offer an optional Holiday Cancellation Scheme, under which we will refund certain costs and/or waive our right to a cancellation charge if you have to cancel your holiday for any one of the Designated Reasons set out below. If you wish to participate in this Scheme you must do so at the time that you make your booking or within the following 7 days.
If you indicate when booking that you wish to participate in the scheme then the fee will be added to your initial deposit, otherwise it must be paid within 48 hours. The scheme fee will depend upon the cost of your holiday, as follows:-
You must let us know immediately by telephone once you know that you will have to cancel your holiday, however your cancellation will only take effect once we receive written confirmation signed by the lead person who made the booking. Provided we receive this within 48 hours of your telephone call we will treat the date of the phone call as the date of cancellation.
All telephone calls and correspondence should be directed to the individual Park where you were to have taken your holiday.
As soon as possible after cancelling your booking, please send us documentary evidence to support your claim. If you are cancelling for medical reasons we will need to see medical certificate(s) or written confirmation from your doctor. If cancelling for another reason we will require sufficient evidence to substantiate your claim to our reasonable satisfaction. We will not make any refund until this evidence has been provided.
The Holiday Cancellation Scheme is not a policy of insurance, nor does it replicate all of the features of a typical holiday insurance policy. If you require insurance cover then you should contact an insurance broker authorised by the Financial Services Authority.
Our Holiday Parks primarily cater for family holidays, bookings for single sex parties of three or more can only be accepted via prior arrangement with the General Manager. We suggest that you call the Park of your choice with the details of how many are in your party, their ages and details to see if there is availability for your holiday.
You will need to inform us of any changes to the booking as soon as you are aware of any such changes as we reserve the right to refuse entry if the booking details do not match who arrives on Park.
Quite often customers wish to holiday with friends or family so up to three units of accommodation can be booked at the same time and we will try our best to make sure they are close to each other. Simply call the Park of your choice to discuss your requirements. We cater primarily for family holidays, so do not accept group bookings for more than three caravans.
For all holiday accommodation booked directly through Hoburne Holiday Parks either online or by calling the Park of your choice, the following is included in the overall holiday price:
Please remember to bring along your own towels (Except in the Becton Lodges at Hoburne Naish) and tea towels . Towels and tea towels are available for hire if you forget.
For tourers the above is applicable with the obvious exceptions of bed linen and cooking/eating utensils.
Generally we do not allow customers to bring pets on holiday with them to our Parks although touring customers are allowed to bring along their pet at Hoburne Bashley on a nightly charge, one pet per booking basis.
Customer should be aware that Holiday Home Owners are allowed to bring their pets on holiday with them so you may see pets on the Park during your stay. We also welcome guide dogs on all Parks.
We currently have wheelchair-friendly units at Hoburne Naish, Hoburne Torbay, Hoburne Blue Anchor and Hoburne Cotswold. Pool hoists are available at Hoburne Naish and Hoburne Blue Anchor and Hoburne Cotswold has a wheelchair to help disabled guests into the water.

If you want to make a minor change to any of the details of your booking e.g. changing to a different pitch of the same standard or changing the name of a member of your party, we will do our best to assist you, subject to availability. There will be no charge for minor changes.
A change of dates, or any change that affects the price of your holiday, will be treated as a major change. Major changes made at least 42 days prior to the start date of your holiday will incur an administration charge of £20.00.
Major changes made within 42 days of the start date of your holiday will be treated as a cancellation - see 'Will I incur any charges if I cancel my booking?'
We would appreciate it if you need to cancel your booking that you let us know immediately by telephone and then send us a confirmatory letter.
Unfortunately as we will incur additional administration costs when you cancel your booking and there is the possibility that we may be unable to re-let the accommodation or pitch, we do charge for cancelling your booking on the following scale:
Our Holiday Cancellation Scheme cover is optional but is strongly recommended - please refer to the Holiday Cancellation Scheme page for more details.
