<\/p>\n
NOUS VOUS RECOMMANDONS VIVEMENT DE SOUSCRIRE UNE ASSURANCE VOYAGE COMPL\u00c8TE POUR COUVRIR LES ACTIVIT\u00c9S DE VOTRE RETRAITE.<\/p>\n
5.1 Nous avons contract\u00e9 une assurance responsabilit\u00e9 civile appropri\u00e9e qui vous couvrira pour les accidents qui se produisent pendant les activit\u00e9s que nous avons organis\u00e9es pendant votre retraite et qui sont caus\u00e9s par une n\u00e9gligence de la part de nos fournisseurs ou de nous-m\u00eames.<\/p>\n
5.2 Vous devez disposer de votre propre assurance voyage et nous fournir ces informations en cas d'urgence . Vous devez \u00e9galement v\u00e9rifier aupr\u00e8s de votre m\u00e9decin que vous \u00eates suffisamment en forme et en bonne sant\u00e9 pour entreprendre l'activit\u00e9 physique que nous avons organis\u00e9e ou que vous pouvez organiser pendant votre retraite. Veuillez v\u00e9rifier aupr\u00e8s de votre m\u00e9decin que vous \u00eates suffisamment en forme et que les m\u00e9dicaments que vous prenez ne vous emp\u00eachent pas de participer pleinement \u00e0 la retraite. Si vous vous blessez ou si vous ressentez une quelconque g\u00eane lors d'une activit\u00e9 organis\u00e9e pour vous, vous devez alors cesser imm\u00e9diatement l'activit\u00e9 et en informer votre h\u00f4te de retraite.<\/p>\n
5.3 It is your responsibility to take out adequate accident and travel insurance at the time of making your booking. Please note that some insurance policies exclude cycling except by way of transport and therefore, you will require additional insurance for cycling and triathlon retreats as the cycling coaching available and cycling undertaken with a guide on the training retreats will exceed such description. We strongly recommend that you take out the insurance described in this clause. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
6.1 If, after your deposit payment has been credited to our account, you wish to change any part of your retreat arrangements, or wish to change departure date, we will do our utmost to make the changes, provided that notification is received in writing at our offices from the person who made the booking, at least 8 weeks before departure. There is also an amendment fee payable of \u00a3150 per person, and any further cost we incur in making this alteration. Please bear in mind that we currently operate a select number of trips each year and can only offer places on one of the other trips when places are available.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
7.1 The information and the retreats outlined in our literature and on our website are designed to be illustrative only in order to explain the scope and type of activities you may undertake during the retreat. Due to the very nature of the retreats being designed to meet the abilities and aims of both yours and our other clients participating in the retreats, it is unlikely that any one retreat could be or would be precisely as published<\/p>\n
7.2 It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your retreat, but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance. Occasionally, changes may have to be made (e.g., to itineraries, venue, accommodation, chefs, personal trainers, instructors or other Company representative or other arrangements), which we reserve the right to do at any time. Changes are normally minor and we will advise you at the earliest possible date. If your accommodation has to be changed, we will do our utmost to provide accommodation of a similar rating. If a significant change (‘Major Change’) becomes necessary before departure, we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure to do so. Should a significant change occur before your departure, then provided that it does not arise through circumstances amounting to force majeure (see below), you will have the choice of either accepting the change of arrangements, booking another retreat with us, or cancelling your retreat and receiving a full refund. If you choose another retreat that is more expensive you must pay any difference, but if it is cheaper we will make the appropriate refund. <\/p>\n
7.3 In all cases, we will pay compensation as detailed below:<\/p>\n
7.3.1 Period before Departure within which a Major Change is notified to you, compensation per person<\/p>\n
(A) Up to 56 days \u00a3Nil<\/p>\n
(B) 56-29 days \u00a320<\/p>\n
(C) 28-15 days \u00a330<\/p>\n
(D) 14-1 days \u00a350<\/p>\n
(E) Day of departure \u00a3100<\/p>\n
7.4 Compensation payments will not apply if payment of your retreat has not been received by the Company by the stipulated payment date.<\/p>\n
7.5 Compensation will not be paid if the Company is forced to cancel or in any way change your retreat due to unusual or unforseeable circumstances beyond our control such as war, threat of war, riot, civil strife, industrial dispute, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, epidemics and pandemics, fire, adverse weather conditions (including snow and volcanic ash), technical or maintenance problems with transport, or other circumstances which amount to force majeure.<\/p>\n
7.6 We may revise these Terms or the booking from time to time to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements. If we have to revise these Terms under this clause we will give you at least one month’s written notice of any changes to these Terms before they take effect.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
8.1 The Company reserves the right in any circumstances to cancel your retreat, in which case we will offer a refund in full all monies paid. If we cancel your retreat we will pay you compensation as set out in clause 7 above.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
9.1 We accept responsibility for ensuring that the retreats that you book with us are supplied as described and that the services we are contractually obliged to provide are to a reasonable standard. We accept responsibility for the acts and\/or omissions of our employees, agents and suppliers except where they lead to death, injury or illness (see below). However we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to: you; or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel arrangements and where the failure is unforeseeable or unavoidable or unusual and beyond our control. Our liability will also be limited to a maximum of twice the price paid for the retreat (other than in cases of death or injury).<\/p>\n
9.2 We accept responsibility for death, injury or illness caused by the negligent acts and\/or omissions of our employees or agents, together with our suppliers and sub-contractors, servants and\/or agents of the same whilst acting within the scope of, or in the course of their employment in the provision of your retreat. We will, accordingly, pay to our client such damages as might have been awarded in such circumstances under English law.<\/p>\n
9.3 Optional trips booked locally are not our responsibility.<\/p>\n
9.4 Other than set out in clause 9.2, We are not responsible for any services which do not form part of our contract with You, for example, any additional services or facilities which the venue or any other supplier agrees to provide You nor are We responsible for any loss and\/or damage to luggage or personal possessions (including money).<\/p>\n9.5 We only supply the Services for domestic and private use. You agree not to use the Services for any business purpose, and we have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.\n
9.6 Please note the following:-<\/p>\n
9.6.1 There are risks inherent with any activity retreat and with physical exercise. We strongly recommend that you consult your doctor before travel to advise on your ability to undertake strenuous exercise. You should make him and us aware of any medical condition which may affect your ability and comfort when undergoing vigorous exercise.<\/p>\n
9.6.2 The cycling coaching element of our Services will always take place off public highways. We will design each retreat program to provide you with the opportunity to put into practice the cycling coaching you have received from us.<\/p>\n
