Booking, Payment, & Cancellations
Use of the Field is strictly by appointment only. We would prefer you to book online but please contact us to discuss if this is not possible. Payment must be made in advance via our online booking system before using the Field.
Any breach of this condition will lead to your permitted use of the Field being permanently revoked.
When making your booking you must give honest, accurate details of the number of dogs attending the booking, the maximum we allow is 5. Any changes to these details before the booking takes place must be notified in advance.
Your booking time includes the time required for you to secure your dog(s) and return them to your vehicle. Customers must ensure that they vacate the car park no later than the end time of their booking. For this reason, we recommend you allow 5/10 minutes to exit the Field safely. Other customers are not to be kept waiting to use the field; if this happens it may lead to the withdrawal of the facility for your use.
Bookings are non-transferable to other people.
If you cannot attend your booking for whatever reason you may prefer to simply move the booking to an alternative date and time, you can do this via the bookings page of our website, but please contact us if you need help.
Cancellations are not possible if they are attempted to be made with less than 24 hours’ notice, and payments will not be refunded.

Should you enter the Field later than the time of your booking this will not alter the end time of your booking.
