Booking involves a three-step process. Firstly, you need to let us know through the booking portal what dates you require and provide us with the details we need to process your application. Secondly, if your application is accepted, we will make you an offer on email. Before completing your booking, check that the booking details shown in the offer are correct.

Your booking is not confirmed or complete until you have paid us and accepted these terms and conditions as instructed in your offer. Once complete, your booking on these terms and conditions is contractually binding.
