If you cancel within eight weeks, having paid your balance we cannot promise a refund but will do our best to re-sell the dates and refund you the balance payment. 

We strongly recommend travel insurance to cover any changes in circumstances for all types of stay. 

Covid 19

If government restrictions are put in place within your or our area which do not permit travel, where possible we will secure new travel dates (subject to any seasonal rate changes), or if this is not possible we will issue full refunds.

Please ensure that you have a travel insurance policy that covers you for Covid-19. This policy should cover your costs if your stay at The Treehouses needs to be cancelled because you have to self-isolate due to Covid, and are therefore unable to travel.

Check out is by 11.00am on your day of departure.

Early check-in and late check-out - We cannot offer an early check in or late check out just now.

Smoking

The Treehouses are not suitable for smokers.

Anyone smoking on the site is responsible for disposing of their cigarette butts in a bin and not littering.  

Children

We are delighted to have children of all ages at The Treehouses, however, please ensure they are accompanied by an adult at all times. This includes in the treehouses and on walks in the surrounding area. Up to three children are included in the cost of our two bedroom units (Wren and Siskin) if the third child is sleeping in a travel cot or your own mattress. There is an £80 per stay surcharge for use of the sofa bed if required. Cots and highchairs can be provided free of charge. 

Pets

Dogs are the only pets allowed on the premises. No other kinds of pets are permitted at The Treehouses. Guests must make us aware that they wish to bring a dog(s) at the time of booking and agree to pay the surcharge of £20 per dog for accompanying dog(s). There is a maximum limit of two dogs for each Treehouse.

We love dogs but cannot accommodate badly behaved ones! Sheep, cattle, wild deer and other animals roam free around The Treehouse site and it is the responsibility of dog owners to keep their dog under control at all times. Guests may be required to vacate the premises, after being warned if their dog is causing issues and they continue to fail to control it. In such circumstance, no refund will be payable to the guest for the unexpired part of their stay. Any injury or death caused by a guest’s dog to a person, another dog, stock animal or wild animal is the responsibility of the dog’s owner. In cases of injury or death of live-stock or wild animals caused by a guest’s dog, The Treehouses reserves the right to charge that guest for any applicable veterinary care or animal replacement costs.

Dogs are not allowed on the furniture at The Treehouses and an additional cleaning fee will be charged if this is apparent. If they have a tendency to chase wild animals or fight with other dogs they must be kept on a lead at all times. We ask that any fouling close to The Treehouses, roads or foot-paths should be cleaned up by the dog’s owner.

We will supply water bowls but please bring your own dog beds.

Damages and repairs

Please leave your treehouse clean, tidy, and in the same general condition it was in when you arrived. Although we understand accidents happen, we reserve the right to charge the lead guest for any damages caused through the course of a booking by any member of the booking party. This includes breakages, spillages, stains, damage to furniture or fixtures and fittings. Any accidental damages should be reported as soon as possible in order to minimise damage and associated costs. Lost keys will incur a replacement charge per key lost.

Inventory

We keep an inventory of everything in each Treehouse and refer to it before and after every stay. If you remove something from your treehouse, we may invoice you for its replacement.

Visitors

The maximum number of staying guests per treehouse is four in Chiffchaff and Goldfinch and six in Wren and Siskin, unless by written agreement and the property will be used solely for the purpose of a holiday by you and your guests.

Only the lead guest and the named booking party are allowed to use the property and its facilities and we don’t allow visitors during your stay. 

For your Safety and Health - General Responsibility

We would love our guests to enjoy the treehouses and the wider area at their own leisure, however we cannot accept any responsibility for any accidents, injuries, illness, loss or damage suffered during your stay – either in the treehouse or the surrounding land. 

Please take particular care with children around the pond and streams. There is a working farm nearby so please keep a close eye on children around livestock and any machinery.

Please be advised that the section of road between Goldfinch and Wren runs parallel with an extremely steep banking. Please stay away from this area. 

If walking up near the cairn, please be aware and take extra care as there are no clear footpaths and bad weather and fog can be disorientating.

More information about the safety aspects can be found on the App.

Force majeure

We cannot accept responsibility or be responsible for compensation in a situation that cannot be avoided, foreseen or is in any way out of our control. The event may include any kind of destruction or damage through fire, flood, explosion, storm, weather damage, break in, criminal damage, riots or civil strife, industrial action, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather, war or threat, actual or threatened terrorist activity, epidemic and any similar situation beyond the owners’ control.

Guest no-show

If you can no longer arrive on the first day of your booking, let us know. If you haven’t arrived by midday on the second day of your stay and we haven’t heard from you, we’ll cancel your booking and may re-let your treehouse.

Inappropriate conduct

Guests undertake to behave in a proper, appropriate, and legal manner with due respect to the owner, the property, other guests and their property. If any guest behaves inappropriately, improperly or illegally, The Treehouses reserves the right to ask the guest and their party to leave the site before the end of the holiday and no refund will be issued.
