Accommodation Preferences

NB. Single occupancy: There is no supplement if you are happy to share a room with another single traveller of the same sex. If there is an odd number of people on the trip and you end up with a room to yourself then you've got lucky, there is still no supplement. You may however select the 'Single Room option' if you prefer a guaranteed room to yourself and you tick the relevant box on the booking form, in which case we will reserve a room for your exclusive use and charge the amount stated. The price varies from trip to trip and can be found on the relevant trip page.

Please insert the total price for your group including any supplements and bike hire.

Terms and Conditions

 

 

  1. Booking Procedure and Payment terms

 

  1. On selection of your holiday please complete and return a signed copy of our Booking Form by email or post, or alternatively you may book by email by providing the same information requested by us on the booking form. Payment of deposit is deemed to be acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. The deposit is £250 per person or for bespoke tours this may vary depending on the accommodation booked.
  2. On receipt of your booking form we will issue an invoice for the deposit, which should be paid by cheque (drawn in sterling on a British bank) or bank transfer. Details will be provided on the invoice.
  3. If you are booking for a group, the named group leader is responsible for payment of all deposit and balance sums due, and all cancellation charges. To be eligible for group discounts all correspondence and payments must be made through the named group leader who we will assume to be ‘Customer 1’ on the booking form unless you alert us otherwise.
  4. For international payments from non-UK banks we will provide our details for international transfers and you agree that any charges levied by your bank or ours will be for your account. We are unable to accept cheques paid in any currency other than Pounds Sterling.
  5. Deposits become due within 7 days of invoice date and after this period your reservation will lapse if the deposit has not been received.
  6. If you need several more days (for example to gather deposits from your group members) please telephone before expiry of the 7 day period and we will extend it further.
  7. If we do not receive your deposit within 7 days or more time has not been negotiated as per clause 1.5 we reserve the right to sell your spaces to someone else.
  8. Payment of deposit is existence of a contract between us.
  9. On receipt of your deposit we will submit an invoice for the balance of your holiday cost which becomes due 6 weeks before commencement of the holiday.
  10. If the balance is not received in a timely manner this will constitute a cancellation by you (see paragraph 2.4 below).

 

2. Cancellation by you

 

If you cancel your holiday cancellation charges will apply as follows. You are therefore strongly advised to ensure that you have adequate travel insurance in place to cover you in the event of cancellation by you:

 

  1. The deposit is non-refundable
  2. After payment of deposit but before the balance is due, the deposit is forfeited in full.
  3. The balance is due 6 weeks before departure and time is of the essence.
  4. 6 weeks or less before the holiday start date 50% of the total holiday cost will be forfeited.
  5. 14 days or less before the holiday start date, the full holiday cost will be forfeited.
  6. In the event of curtailment of your holiday by you, or by us under clause 6.7, no refunds will be given either for all or part of any amounts paid.

 

3. Cancellation by us

 

  1. If we cancel your holiday we will offer you an alternative departure date for the same holiday, or an alternative holiday.
  2. You are not obliged to accept our offer of alternatives and can instead opt for a full refund, including deposit, of all monies paid to Green Jersey Cycling Tours Ltd.
  3. If you accept a holiday of greater or lesser value, the difference between the original holiday cost and the new holiday cost will be paid either by you or us as the case may be.
  4. You should ensure that you have adequate insurance in place to cover you should we be forced to cancel your holiday to cover those amounts paid to suppliers other than us (e.g. travel arrangements).
  5. We make no guarantee as to the final number of participants on a tour. Our tours have a minimum number to make them viable, which varies from tour to tour, and if this number is not met by the time the balance becomes payable we will extend to you the option to cancel your holiday and we will refund your deposit in full. In this instance Section 2 of these Terms & Conditions will not apply.

 

4. Variation by you

 

  1. If you wish to change the holiday you have booked, you may request a transfer to another holiday and we will endeavour to meet this request, subject to availability. Transfers are not possible after the balance has been paid.
  2. If you request a holiday of greater or lesser value, the difference between the original holiday cost and the new holiday cost will be paid either by you or us as the case may be.
  3. If we cannot accommodate you in your request, cancellation charges will still apply.
  4. There is no charge for the first variation under this section. Second and subsequent variations will attract a £30 administration fee per person travelling under your booking.
  5. If you are delayed in joining the start of your holiday or need to curtail your holiday, we will not offer any refund. You will be responsible for making your own travel arrangements at your own cost from the point where you join or leave the holiday.

 

5. Variation by us

 

  1. All reasonable care is taken to ensure that your holiday is as advertised. We take great care to ensure that only the most suitable accommodation is used and that the routes offer the best cycling on offer. However we retain the right to alter your holiday.
  2. If there is a ‘significant variation’ to the advertised holiday we will offer you the same options as set out under ‘Cancellation by us’ above.
  3. A significant variation is defined as one where any of the following conditions are met:
    1. The holiday start as advertised is altered by more than 12 hours
    2. The holiday finish as advertised is altered by more than 12 hours
    3. The holiday start or finish point is changed by more than 15 miles.
  4. A change in the hotels as advertised or the route as advertised does not constitute a significant variation.
  5. You should ensure that you have adequate insurance in place to cover you should we be forced to make a ‘significant variation’ to your holiday to cover those amounts paid to suppliers other than us (e.g. travel arrangements).

  1. If you have requested bike hire we will make available to you a bicycle for the duration of your holiday from the start point to the finish point.

  3. You agree to take due care of the bicycle and equipment provided and to return it in the same state as it was provided (wear and tear excepted).
  4. You agree that your travel insurance will cover the bicycle against loss, damage or destruction.

 

16. Bicycle transport conditions

 

  1. If we agree to transport your bicycle across international borders (including the  EU external border and the limits of Schengen areas) you agree that, in addition to the transport fee that is agreed and paid in advance, you will be responsible for any Customs charges or any and all other charges associated with the crossing of those border(s) imposed by the border officials of any nation in carrying out that service. You also agree that if your bicycle is impounded by any authority that you will be responsible to retrieving it and for any associated costs.

18. Descriptions

 

All descriptions whether written or verbal are given in good faith. Descriptions are by their very nature subjective and if there is anything of particular concern you should contact us prior to booking for clarification.

 

19. Legal

Company number 8185483 Registered address: Bun House, Cattistock, Dorchester, Dorset DT2 0HY England.

 

20. Financial Security

 

Green Jersey Cycling Tours Limited is a member of the Travel Trust Association. Our membership number is Q0937. Your holiday monies are paid into a trust fund which we cannot access until after your holiday has taken place. You are therefore 100% protected against the failure of the company or its suppliers. In addition we will issue to you an insurance policy called a Stand Alone Safe Seat Guarantee which provides another level of protection for you. The cost of this policy is borne by us.
