We have 3 on site fire pits and all open fires must be in these.  We do not allow any portable fire pits anywhere else on site for safety of our wooden buildings, structures, fellow glampers and for insurance reasons.  All fires must be extinguished by 10.30pm at the latest for insurance reasons.  You are able to bring your own BBQ or borrow one of the two Glamping site BBQs but these must be used in the outdoor cooking area.  Gas cookers or BBQs must never be used within 6 metres of any of our glamping pods, railway wagons or the amenities building.

Cancellation of Your Booking by Yorkshire Wolds Glamping
We do not expect to have to make changes to your booking, however sometimes problems hap-
pen, and bookings have to be changed or cancelled. We will only change or cancel your booking:

a) if necessary to perform or complete essential remedial or refurbishment works; or
b) for other reasons unforeseen at the time you made your booking which are beyond our rea-
sonable control. This may include occasions where the accommodation becomes inaccessible due
to a Meteorological Office Severe Weather Warning or other unforeseen event.
c) If we do need to change or cancel your booking for the reason set out in Section
a), we will do our best to offer you a suitable alternative booking. If we are not able to offer you
a suitable alternative, or if you do not accept the alternative we offer, the booking will be deemed
cancelled and we will refund you the total amount you have paid us for the booking.
d) If we do need to change or cancel your booking in line with b), because it becomes impossible
to deliver the booking due to unforeseen events beyond our reasonable control, we’ll do our best
to offer you a suitable alternative booking for either the same dates or alternative dates. If you
don’t accept the alternative we offer, the booking will be deemed cancelled and no refund of any
amounts paid will be offered. If you are happy to rearrange your stay and the dates you choose
are higher prices than the original booking (i.e. if you originally booked a low season date and
instead choose a high season date) you will be charged the difference.
e) We strongly advise that you obtain appropriate travel insurance for all members of your
group. This should ideally cover loss of baggage and personal accident.
