When you book a holiday with us, you do so to stay in a specific grade of accommodation and NOT a specific holiday home on a specific pitch. For operational reasons, your booking will not be assigned to a caravan or lodge until just before your arrival on park. We are therefore unable to guarantee precisely where you will be staying on the park but rest assured that you will be staying in the grade of accommodation booked.

If booking more that one holiday accommodation or travelling with friends, if made aware, we will endeavour to locate you within a short distance of each other, however we are unable to guarantee this as it depends on a number of factors including the respective grades of accommodations booked, when they were booked, and how full the park is on the dates concerned.

There is designated parking alongside, or on rare occasions, adjacent to your holiday home for only 1 car. If you bring more than 1 car you may need to use additional parking provided, however we cannot guarantee this will be by the holiday home. Signature accommodation at Bowleaze Cove Holiday Park & Spa does have 2 parking spaces.

Please note that parking for apartments, cottages and The Manor House at Tregoad is communal but adjacent to the accommodation. Please also note we do not permit jet-skis, boats, lorries, vans (including camper vans) or other commercial or sign written vehicles on our park.

Up to 2 well-trained small dogs up to 15kg each (or 1 medium/large weighing greater than 15kg) of breeds not listed in the Banned Dog Breeds section of our Terms and Conditions, and their responsible owners, are welcome on the park and in DESIGNATED holiday accommodation only. There is a charge reflecting the increased cost of cleaning and maintaining dog-friendly accommodations. When booking, look out for specific ‘Dog friendly’ accommodation or ask our helpful reservations team to point you in the right direction. We regret however that only Registered Assistance dogs are permitted in the facilities. If you’ve brought your four-legged friend on holiday with you, we ask that they are kept on a lead at all times whilst outside with the exception of the designated dog walking area. Unfortunately we are not able to accept any pets other than dogs. When dogs are inside the accommodation they must sleep in their own beds. We also ask that dogs are not left unaccompanied within your accommodation as they may get nervous with new surroundings!

Please note that your four-legged friends are welcome in the Stargazy Bar & Grill at Tregoad and Country Club at Osmington.

This will depend on which type of accommodation you have booked:

• Signature - Bath Towels and Bed Linen

• Deluxe - Bath Towels and Bed Linen

• Superior - Bath Towels and Bed Linen

• Classic - Bed Linen only

All of your beds will be made up upon arrival and please note that Towels refers to Bath towels and a Tea towel. Please note that Beach towels and towels for swimming are NOT provided.

Where not provided, Towel packs can be hired from Housekeeping and Reception for use during your stay for £5 with an additional £5 refundable deposit.

Fresh towels?

For holidays of 7 nights or longer, a complimentary fresh towel exchange is included when returning to Housekeeping the towels provided at the start of your stay. All other exchanges are chargeable at £5 per pair of towels.

• Take care both when removing and replacing the Hot Tub cover and when entering and exiting the Hot Tub
• Shower before and after use. Do not use any soaps or oils in the Hot Tub nor use if you have applied fake tan.
• Do not stand, sit, or lie on the lid or edge of the Hot Tub and certainly do not jump or dive into it.
• Your Hot Tub has a maximum number of occupants, and this must be observed to enable its filtration system to function correctly and maintain a suitable chemical balance
• No child under 4 years should use the Hot Tub and it is your responsibility to supervise all minors between the ages of 4 and 16 years if allowing them to use the facility.
• You should avoid use of your Hot Tub if you are under the influence of alcohol or have recently eaten a substantial meal. No glass or food should be brought into the vicinity of the unit, and you must refrain from smoking during use.
• Do not use if you are pregnant. If you suffer from heart disease, diabetes, blood pressure issues or any other serious illness, please take advice from a medical professional before use.
• You must only use a Hot tub continuously for a maximum of 15 minutes. At any time during usage, if you feel unwell, you must get out immediately. Please ensure you cool down between periods of use.
• If our usage guidelines are followed, your Hot Tub will provide you with many happy memories. However, if used excessively, it may be that the levels of cleanliness and the chemical balance of your Hot Tub cannot be corrected by routine maintenance. Under such circumstances, we will be required to drain the hot tub down and re-fill and re-heat. Naturally, the Hot tub will be out of use until we deem it ready.
• You are not permitted to use the Hot Tub after 11pm and ask that when doing so after 10pm that noise be kept to a minimum. Do not use at any time during stormy weather where there is a risk of lightening!
• When not using the Hot tub, we kindly ask you to replace the cover. Turn off the jets but do not turn off the Hot Tub as you will wish to maintain the water heat for subsequent use.

The Waterside Group Best Price Promise

2nd 2022 Holiday Discount (Comeback Offer)

When you decide to come back for a second or subsequent holiday within the same calendar year to any one of our parks, you can save up to an EXTRA 10% on your holiday. Call us directly to book, simply quoting “Comeback Offer” and your original booking reference number to receive the extra discount. The offer applies to new bookings only, cannot be applied retrospectively and only applies to the 2nd and additional holidays. 5% discount applies to School and Bank Holiday periods, 10% discount applies to all other dates. Any discounts applied under this offer will be removed if the original booking is cancelled.

Some of our holiday homeowners let out their accommodation privately and this can be an alternative way to spend some valuable holiday time with us.

We do however need to make you aware that when you enter in to a private letting arrangement directly with a 3rd party, we are not involved in the booking and have no control over the availability, quality, and cleanliness of the holiday home you are renting.

As a result, any queries about your booking need to be raised with them and not with us. We also strongly advise that you verify that you are dealing with a genuine owner and that both parties fully understand the contractual relationship and each other’s responsibilities.
