Walking and activity holidays in the UK, Europe, and worldwide 2025/6
Trails of Medieval Umbria
Dear Reader,
I am delighted to introduce my first brochure as the new Chief Executive Officer of HF Holidays, the only co-operative organisation providing walking holidays in the travel industry. The enduring success of HF Holidays lies in its simple yet powerful formula: being owned by and for its members. For over 111 years, this model has thrived, helping continue our mission to create shared holiday experiences that inspire fun, friendship, and an active enjoyment of the great outdoors.
Being new to HF Holidays I have been immensely impressed by our rich history and the vision of our founder, TA Leonard, who believed in the power of walking to break down barriers and bring people from all walks of life together. Meeting our members, customers, and leaders since I joined has underscored the enduring values of community and belonging that define HF Holidays.
As we look ahead, I’m excited to continue building on this remarkable legacy. Now that 2025 is here, it’s the perfect time to choose from our ever-increasing range of holiday options. Inside you’ll find some familiar favourites coupled with a host of exciting new products. Booking early, not only ensures that you get the holiday of your choice, but also something to look forward to in the year ahead, so step this way and let us help you plan your perfect break.
I hope you find inspiration in these pages, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Best wishes,
Chris Simmonds CEO of HF Holidays

Making a bigger difference as a co-operative
As a co-operative, we are guided by our members. Their voice benefits every guest, whether they are a member or not.
Our ethos means that all surplus is reinvested in the business, especially our 15 characterful country houses. We listen to all opinions, integrating these into our activities as we continue providing enriching holidays that connect people with a love of the great outdoors.
When you become a member, you’ll be rewarded with exclusive benefits; from helping to decide the way things are done to enjoying a wealth of special offers and discounts.

Our mission is to provide shared holiday experiences that inspire friendship, fun and an active enjoyment of the great outdoors.
HF Holidays is proud to be a co-operative organisation committed to making the great outdoors accessible to all. Driven by a passion for the countryside and a desire to share its wonders with everyone, we believe walking together can boost both mental and physical health, foster friendships, and create a strong sense of community.
It takes every single one of our 48,000 loyal members, 500-strong team of employees, and 650 volunteer leaders to make our holidays happen. Fuelled by an unwavering commitment to our mission statement, we work together to help over 55,000 guests enjoy fulfilling walking breaks and activity holidays every year.
The HF Holidays story began with one man. In the late 19th century, country pastor turned social innovator, Thomas Arthur Leonard OBE, sought to improve the lives of factory workers by offering walking holidays as an alternative to the annual trend of spending a week at the seaside. He founded the Co-operative Holiday Association in 1893 before establishing the Holiday Fellowship (HF Holidays) in 1913. On his memorial plaque below Cat Bells in the Lake District, he’s hailed as the “Father of the Open-Air Movement in this Country”.

Building our tomorrow, together
We believe walking is a powerful way to unite people in an increasingly divided world. When the very technology designed to connect us often drives us apart, it’s more important than ever to break down barriers by bringing people together in the great outdoors.
Whether we’re out walking, volunteering in local communities, or simply swapping stories around the dinner table, incredible things can happen when different minds meet. When you join an HF Holiday, you’ll have the chance to form meaningful and long-lasting friendships whilst getting active in nature or discovering a new hobby.
Become part of a community that values connection, kindness, and ensuring the countryside landscapes we love remain a source of joy and inspiration for generations to come.
“HF Holidays is more than a travel company; it’s an inclusive, welcoming society. Members and guests share experiences, creating a true sense of belonging. HF belongs to its members, and members are part of the HF family.”
Chris, HF Holidays Leader, member and volunteer Archivist
“After my first HF break, I felt I’d discovered a secret. When I shared it with my aunt Stella, she laughed—she’d been a member for over 50 years! As President, I celebrate the variety of stunning coast and countryside experiences HF offers.”
Helen, HF Holidays President
“Many thanks to HF Holidays and your volunteer walk leaders for continuing to provide holidays where community lives on - alongside comfort and good food! I’m so impressed by what you do and want others to know about it.”

Journeys with Purpose
Sustainable travel has always been a part of our DNA. Walking holidays are, by their very nature, a lowcarbon choice. We’ve worked hard to build strong partnerships and develop group initiatives that provide a brighter future for all.
Proudly B-Corp Certified
We’re proud to be a certified B Corporation, committed to ensuring our business practices are a force for good. Our ambition is to be net zero by 2040, earlier if we can. By choosing HF Holidays, you’re supporting sustainable travel and community-focused initiatives that benefit both people and the planet.
To help you make more informed choices, we now label all our holidays online with a carbon emissions rating and promote lowcarbon travel options, including rail holidays and shared transfers.
Our Pathways Fund
Broadening our reach: The Summit 2024
Dedicated to making the countryside more inclusive for all, we’re proud to have hosted The Summit for the fourth year running. This annual event encourages communities from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to engage with nature and share ideas in the great outdoors.
From providing holidays for families who couldn’t otherwise afford one to protecting and preserving popular footpaths, our Pathways Fund makes a real difference – one that extends beyond the trails and into people’s everyday lives.
Here are just a few of the fantastic projects and community initiatives we’re part of:
Roseberry Topping & The National Trust
HF Holidays is donating £30,000 to restore pathways at Roseberry Topping, an iconic North Yorkshire landmark. Partnering with the National Trust and North York Moors National Park Authority, our donation funds essential repairs to improve access for walkers, horse riders, and cyclists, ensuring this iconic landmark remains a highlight for generations to come. Even more reason to lace up your boots and explore from Larpool Hall, our nearby country house in Whitby.
Opening Doors to the Great Outdoors: Fences & Frontiers
We’re excited to continue our partnership with Fences & Frontiers, a charity dedicated to making the UK a welcoming place for refugees and asylum seekers. In 2024, we hosted three assisted holidays that introduced our guests to the stunning landscapes of the South Downs and Peak District.
“In a nutshell I see HF Holidays enriching other people as well as my own life. From the moment you walk into one of our houses you are welcomed and supported and instantly put at ease. It’s like being enveloped in a big warm hug. There’s such a positive vibe and this enables you to overcome difficulties and challenges, enhance your wellbeing, be open to learning new things, and to grow new friendships.”

A sense of belonging
Solos, couples, friends, families & groups all welcome
As Britain’s biggest walking holiday co-operative, we believe things are better when they’re done together. Sociability and shared experiences are a big focus on our holidays. We invite couples, families, friends, clubs, colleagues, and solo travellers, both members and non-members, to walk together as one.
Members and non-members, all welcome
Whether it’s your first holiday with us or your thousandth, member or non-member, we ensure everyone feels confident and welcome in the wild places we love. Simply put, when you choose us, you join a community of like-minded people who share a passion for the countryside and a desire to make the outdoors a place where we all belong.
“HF Holidays is more than just another travel company. It is a society – inclusive and welcoming. On the holidays, it’s the experiences that we share that matter. And members and guests identify with each other and with HF. It’s not simply a transactional relationship, there is a sense of belonging: HF belongs to its members, and members belong to the HF family.”
Michael, HF Holidays Guest, Member, and Leader
Travelling by yourself?
Whilst travelling solo can be daunting, many of our guests choose to holiday by themselves. At HF Holidays, going away on your own does not mean being alone. Through a shared passion for the outdoors, we all walk together as one.
Single rooms
With no hidden single supplement to pay on Classic single rooms at our country houses, we offer a fabulous selection of great value getaways for solo travellers. We also have a limited number of single rooms available at our partner hotels for a supplement.
Reassurance for solo travellers
Our UK guided walking holidays offer a choice of up to three walks a day with our experienced HF Holidays Leaders. With no need to navigate, you can simply savour the joy of the journey and focus on getting to know your group.
Shared dining tables and socialising
Whether you’re staying at our country houses or one of our partner hotels, you can expect shared dining tables to help spark conversation and evening activities on selected stays (subject to destination and itinerary).
Great for groups
We’re all about creating experiences that bring people together and that’s why we love group organisers. They’re the people that put plans in place, set things in motion, and make things happen. So, whether it’s for family, friends, colleagues, or a club, let us help you plan an unforgettable group getaway.
Group holidays made easy
Home or abroad, groups of 10+ adults will have a dedicated Account Manager who will be on hand to find the best possible packages and handle all the details, so you can sit back, relax, and look forward to spending time with the people who mean the most to you.
At our UK country houses, your group can choose from a range of guided walking breaks on a full-board basis that include up to three different grade daily walks. Or go self-guided to walk as much as you please, using our easy-to-follow routes and maps. Groups of 15+ adults will also benefit from
one free place, and as a reward for getting your group together, we automatically give group organisers a free room upgrade.

What’s new for 2025
“The Product team has paid tribute to our recently retired CEO, David Harrington. To celebrate his career, we’ve brought back the Savoie Alps, a holiday from our 1984 brochure, the year David joined. We’ve also revived favourites like Snowdonia, Arran, and Dorset, introduced new Balkan destinations, two Africa itineraries, and a UK Discover More collection.”
Rob
HF Holidays Product General Manager
Wendy HF Holidays Senior Product Manager UK
“We’re excited to revive some old favourites this year. We’re returning to Northern Snowdonia, staying at the Gwydyr Hotel in Betws-y-Coed. We’re also heading back to Dorset and the Isle of Arran for guided walking trips, offering a new Skyline programme for those who like a challenge, and introducing exciting new small group Discover More tours to get even closer to your holiday destination.”
Sharon HF Holidays Senior Product Manager Europe
“Some familiar faces return to our European walking holidays this year, often with a fresh twist. Visit the French Alps by air or rail, explore Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula, or the Amalfi Coast and the Isle of Capri. Brand-new destinations for 2025 include Transylvania, Montenegro, and Albania, adding some intriguing new options to our already extensive range.”
“It’s been a whirlwind year for the Worldwide Team. Our new 2025 trip to Eswatini sold out within weeks, so be sure to book early for 2026. We’ve brought back both South Africa and the American Rockies with new and improved itineraries, while our freshly designed Maritime Canada trip offers incredible coastal walking and unforgettable experiences.”

Pick a holiday style to suit you
We have a range of different holiday styles to suit every interest and ability. From active, outdoor walking experiences and sightseeing tours, to relaxing breaks that spark curiosity for new hobbies and interests.
Guided walking holidays
Our most popular style is a guided walking holiday. In the UK, you’ll often have a choice of three different grade daily walks, all guided by our experienced HF Holidays Leaders. Our overseas holidays combine one or two walking options per day with sightseeing experiences, all guided by a knowledgeable local leader.
We know everyone is different, so to help tailor your experience, we offer a variety of other guided holiday options to suit your walking ability, pace, and style, including:
Gentle guided walking
If you’re new to walking or simply prefer to take things slowly, these walks minimise gradients and rough ground – but without compromising sights or scenery. Best of all, you can still choose from three different walks per day.
Tread-lightly guided walking
Offering a choice of three walks per day that begin and end on the doorstep of our country houses, these holidays are kinder to the environment as they remove the need for coach travel.
Walking with sightseeing
Enjoy the perfect combination of easier guided walks and sightseeing that introduce you to the very heart of your destination. Our itineraries balance big-name sights with shorter walks and experiences that help you uncover history, heritage, landmarks, wildlife and more.
Guided trails
Walk the world’s most iconic long-distance trails as part of a small group (15 max). We’ll take care of all the planning and navigation, plus any luggage transfers needed, so you can just focus on enjoying the journey.
Challenge holidays
Take on an exhilarating walking challenge with the help of our experienced HF Holidays Leaders and tick-off some of the UK’s highest mountains and wildest landscapes.
Island hopping
Discover incredible islands around the UK with guided breaks led by our experienced leaders. Explore a single island or several and discover standout sights on foot.
Rail adventures
Our rail holidays make the journey as much a part of the adventure as the destination. Departing from London St Pancras, we’ll hop across the English Channel by Eurostar and then onward to some of Europe’s finest countries to explore fabulous landscapes and sights.
Family walking adventures
We’ve got walks for little legs, trails for older children, and hikes that’ll keep the whole clan happy – with experienced leaders who know a place best or on your own. Departing during the school holidays, these breaks help kick-start a healthy passion for walking early on in life.
Self-guided walking holidays
For complete freedom and flexibility in the UK, our self-guided holidays are the perfect pick. Use the dedicated Discovery Points at our country houses and choose from a range of easy-to-follow routes that you can walk at your own pace.
With step-by-step instructions to keep you on the right track, you can feel confident exploring the great outdoors on your own.
Special interest holidays
Combining stunning locations with something you’re passionate about, these holidays will help you embrace new hobbies, learn new skills, or improve on existing ones. Whether it’s painting, music, yoga, reading, cookery, or bridge that appeals, our expert tutors cater for all experience levels.

Our walking grades explained
Whether you’re a newcomer or keen walker, we offer walks to suit all paces and experience levels. For the majority of our holidays we not only offer a wide range of walks but a daily choice, too. For example, on our UK country house guided walking holidays, you’ll have a choice of up to three different grade daily walks to choose from.
Your daily walks at a glance
Walking grades
Choose a walking grade to suit you
Walk at a relaxed pace, often spending time at places of interest en-route. Walking experience isn’t necessary as distances are quite short and gradients generally easy.
Good paths but walks are a bit longer. Some walks, particularly in mountain areas, may have sections over rough or steeper terrain.
Walks follow well-defined paths, though often in hilly or upland areas, or along rugged coastal footpaths. These may be rough or steep in sections and will require reasonable fitness.
Fitness levels
The number of walking grade icons displayed by each holiday indicates how many walks you can choose from each walking day. The number inside the icon reflects the difficulty level of the walk.
Long distances in remote countryside and on rough terrain. You can expect some sustained ascents and descents; there may be occasional sections of scree and steep ground.
Good fitness and stamina required. Expect rocky terrain with sustained ascents and descents. Walks may include high summits and ridges.
Our most challenging walks where high levels of fitness and stamina are required. Walks will be long and strenuous in difficult mountain terrain.
Please consider your fitness levels to ensure the grade of walk you choose reflects the ability of everyone in the group. If you are not sure which grade suits you, call us and we’ll be happy to help.
Travel with confidence
Top of our list at HF Holidays is making sure you feel confident travelling with us. We know that peace of mind is priceless, so we’ll always go above and beyond to meet – and exceed – expectations. Whether staying in the UK or travelling further afield, all package holidays purchased directly with us have 100% financial protection regulated by ATOL or ABTOT.
Which? Recommended Provider for Escorted Tours
We’re thrilled to have been endorsed as Which? Recommended Provider for Escorted Tours for the sixth year running. To be recognised by the consumer champions, based on a survey of over 8,000 members of the public, is a testament to the hard work of our team in delivering exceptional experiences year after year.
Why fly with us?
All flights include hold baggage and return airport transfers to and from your hotels. While most flights depart from London airports, we also offer a selection of holidays from Manchester, Birmingham and other regional airports. Prices may vary, please see details on individual holiday pages in this brochure and on our website.
If you’d rather organise your own flights and transfers, select our land only option. Holidays without flights are still ABTOT bonded, but any independently purchased flights don’t benefit from our ATOL protection.
Travelling by rail
Our fully escorted rail journeys are led by HF Holidays Tour Managers from start to finish. Your group will depart from London St Pancras by Eurostar and then onward into Europe via high-speed and regional rail services.
These trips offer the perfect opportunity to get to know your fellow travellers, and benefit from ample legroom and the freedom to move around.
Travelling with us by train is an integral part of your holiday experience. Please keep in mind that you will be responsible for your own luggage. We recommend packing as lightly as possible, using a suitcase with wheels, so you can lift your luggage on, off and between trains and transfer coaches (possibly onto overhead racks), and sometimes between stations and hotels.

“I enjoyed all the walks in the dramatic volcanic landscapes of Gran Canaria, but the final day is higher and greener than many of the others, earning it the local name: Pequena Irelanda (Little Ireland).

8. Your participation in the holiday
Participation on our walks and activities requires an appropriate level of fitness. We reserve the right not to accept participants on our walks and activities if, in the reasonable opinion of the leader, this would compromise the safety or enjoyment of an individual or the group as a whole.
If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your booking, please provide us with full details before you make your booking so that we can try to advise you as to the suitability of your chosen arrangements. We may require you to produce a doctor’s certificate certifying that you are fit to participate. Acting reasonably, if we are unable to properly accommodate the needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking or, if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will cancel it and impose applicable cancellation charges when we become aware of these details.
All our customers are expected to conduct themselves in an orderly and acceptable manner and not to disrupt the enjoyment of others. If in our opinion or in the opinion of any hotel manager or any other person in authority, your behaviour or that of any member of your party is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any other customers or any third party, or damage to property, or to cause a delay or diversion to transportation, we reserve the right to terminate your booking with us immediately.
In the event of such termination our liability to you and/or your party will cease and you and/or your party will be required to leave your accommodation or other arrangements
immediately. We will have no further obligations to you and/or your party. No refunds for lost accommodation or any other arrangements will be made, and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of termination. You and/or your party may also be required to pay for loss and/or damage caused by your actions, and we will hold you and each member of your party jointly and individually liable for any damage or losses caused by you or any member of your party.
Full payment for any such damage or losses must be paid directly to the hotel manager or other supplier prior to departure. If you fail to make payment, you will be responsible for meeting any claims (including legal costs) subsequently made against us as a result of your actions together with all costs we incur in pursuing any claim against you.

9. Prices
Prices on our website are updated regularly. However, we:
a.Reserve the right to alter the prices of any of our unsold holidays at any time;
b. Are unable to honour prices where an obvious pricing error has been made; and
c.Reserve the right to correct errors in the prices of confirmed holidays.
In any instance, we will advise you of the current price of the holiday before your booking is confirmed or contact you within 72 hours of the correct price, as per clause 3 above.
In addition, we also reserve the right to increase the price of confirmed holidays solely to allow for increases which are a direct consequence of changes in:
a.The price of the carriage of passengers resulting from the cost of fuel or other power sources;
b. The level of taxes or fees chargeable for services applicable to the holiday imposed by third parties not directly involved in the performance of the holiday, including tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports; and
c.The exchange rates relevant to the package.
Such variations could include but are not limited to airline cost changes which are part of our contracts with airlines (and their agents), cruise ship operators, and any other transport providers.
However, if this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your confirmed holiday (excluding any insurance premiums, amendment charges and/ or additional services or travel arrangements), you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid to us, except for any insurance premiums and any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 7 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy.
Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, then any refund due will be paid to you less an administrative fee of £10. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. There will be no change made to the price of your confirmed holiday within 20 days of your departure nor will refunds be paid during this period.
Prices displayed on our website and marketing materials are full public price. Verified members will pay £30 less than this published price and will see their discount appear on their booking.

We make group flight bookings for our holidays in advance. Once these seats have been filled, extra seats are requested on a booking-by-booking basis. Sometimes there may be the need for a further supplement to be paid in addition to any holiday costs shown in our brochure. This is beyond our control and comes from the airline provider and in such cases, clause 22 (Conditions of Suppliers) will apply. Any additional supplements will be quoted at the time of confirming your booking. 15. Your insolvency protection
1. We provide financial security for flight-inclusive packages and ATOL protected flights by way of our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 0710, issued by the Civil Aviation Authority, Gatwick Airport South, West Sussex, RH6 0YR, UK, telephone 0333 103 6350, email: claims@caa.co.uk. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive package from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL Scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable).
If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL Scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL Scheme.
2. We provide full financial protection for our package holidays which don’t include flights, by way of a bond held by ABTOT (The Association of Bonded Travel Organisers Trust Limited), membership number 5008, 69 Leadenhall Street, London, EC3A 2BG, 020 7065 5311, membership@abtot.com. ABTOT provides financial protection under The Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 for HF Holidays Ltd, and in the event of our insolvency, protection is provided for non-flight packages. ABTOT cover provides for a refund in the event you have not yet travelled or repatriation if transportation was included in your package. Please note that bookings made outside the UK are only protected by ABTOT when purchased directly with HF Holidays Ltd, company number IP05713R.

16. Our responsibility
1. We will accept responsibility for the arrangements we agree to provide or arrange for you as an “organiser” under the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018, as set out below and as such, we are responsible for the proper provision of all travel services specifically included in your package, as set out in your confirmation invoice and the information we provided to you regarding the services prior to booking. Please note that we shall not be responsible for any additional services provided to you, whether provided by the travel service providers or otherwise, which are not set out in your confirmation invoice and the information we provided to you.
2. We will not be responsible or pay you compensation for any personal injury or death unless you are able to prove that it was caused by our negligence or the negligence of our suppliers.
3. We will not be responsible or pay you compensation for any injury, illness, death, loss, damage, expense, cost or other claim of any description if it results from:
a.The acts and/or omissions of the person affected; or
b. The acts and/or omissions of a third party unconnected with the provision of the services contracted for and which were unavoidable and extraordinary; or
c.Events Beyond Our Control (as defined in clause 13).
4. We limit the amount of compensation we may have to pay you if we are found liable under this clause:
a. Loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions and money: the maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is an amount equivalent to the excess on your insurance policy which applies to this type of loss per person in total because you are required to have adequate insurance in place to cover any losses of this kind.
b. Claims not falling under (3a) above and which don’t involve injury, illness or death: the maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is up to three times the price paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total. This maximum amountwill only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you or your party has not received any benefit at all from your booking.
c. Claims in respect of international travel by air, sea and rail, or any stay in a hotel:
I.The extent of our liability will in all cases be limited as if we were carriers under the appropriate Conventions, which include The Warsaw/Montreal Convention (international travel by air); The Athens Convention (with respect to sea travel); The Berne/Cotif Convention (with respect to rail travel) and The Paris Convention (with respect to hotel arrangements). You can ask for copies of these Conventions from our offices. Please contact us. In addition, you agree that the operating carrier or transport company’s own ‘Conditions of Carriage’ will apply to you on that journey. When arranging transportation for you, we rely on the terms and conditions contained within these international Conventions and those ‘Conditions of Carriage’. You acknowledge that all of the terms and conditions contained in those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ form part of your contract with us, as well as with the transport company and that those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ shall be deemed to be included by reference into this contract.
II.In any circumstances in which a carrier is liable to you by virtue of the Denied Boarding Regulation 2004, any liability we may have to you under our contract with you, arising out of the same facts, is limited to the remedies provided under the Regulation as if (for this purpose only) we were a carrier.
III.When making any payment, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from the transport provider or hotelier for the complaint or claim in question.
5.Subject to these Booking Conditions, if we or our suppliers negligently perform or arrange those services set out in the confirmation invoice and the information we provided to you regarding the services prior to booking and we don’t remedy or resolve your complaint within a reasonable period of time, and this has affected the enjoyment of your package holiday you may be entitled to an appropriate price reduction or compensation or both. You must inform us without undue delay of any failure to perform or improper performance of the travel services included in this package. The level of any such price reduction or compensation in respect of any claim for damages or compensation whatsoever will be calculated taking into consideration all relevant factors such as but not limited to: following the complaints procedure as described in these Booking Conditions and the extent to which ours or our employees’ or suppliers’ negligence affected the overall enjoyment of your holiday. Please note that it is your responsibility to show that we or our supplier(s) have been negligent if you wish to make a claim against us.
6.It is a condition of our acceptance of liability under this clause that you notify any claim to us and our supplier(s) strictly in accordance with the complaints procedure set out in these conditions.
7. Where any payment is made, the person(s) receiving it (and their parent or guardian if under 18 years) must also assign to us or our insurers any rights they may have to pursue any third party and must provide ourselves and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require.
8.Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss or expense or other sum(s) of any description:
a.Which, on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you; or
b. Relate to any business; or
c.Indirect or consequential loss of any kind.
9. We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of our
Privacy policy
Our website privacy policy contains more detailed information about our data processing (including about data security, data retention and lawful processing bases) and you should read that in conjunction with this privacy notice. See hfholidays.co.uk/privacypolicy. If you do not have access to the internet, you can ask us to send you a printed copy by contacting us, details of how to are listed below.
The majority of personal data we collect will be directly from you. However, we will also collate some information about your engagement with our organisation and technical data, profile data, usage data and marketing and communications data. How you can understand more about the categories of data we process is explained in our website privacy policy.
We will only use your personal data for the purpose for which we collected it, which includes to register you as a new customer or member, to process and complete your holiday bookings; to manage your relationship with us; to enable you to participate in a prize draw, competition or to complete a survey; to improve our website, products or services; to administer marketing or customer relationships including to recommend
agreement or where they are not advertised in our brochure or on our website. For example, any excursion you book whilst away, or any service or facility which your hotel or any other supplier agrees to provide for you.
10.Where it is impossible for you to return to your departure point as per the agreed return date of your package, due to “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances”, we shall provide you with any necessary accommodation (where possible, of a comparable standard) for a period not exceeding three nights per person. Please note that the 3-night cap does not apply to persons with reduced mobility, pregnant women or unaccompanied minors, nor to persons needing specific medical assistance, provided we have been notified of these particular needs at least 48 hours before the start of your holiday. For the purposes of this clause, “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” mean warfare, acts of terrorism, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination, or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely back to your departure point.
17. Special requests and add-ons
Any special requests must be advised to us at the time of booking e.g. diet, room location, a particular facility at a hotel etc. You should then confirm your requests in writing. Whilst every effort will be made by us to try and arrange your reasonable special requests, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. The fact that a special request has been noted on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation or that it has been passed on to the supplier is not confirmation that the request will be met. Failure to meet any special request will not be a breach of contract on our part unless the request has been specifically confirmed by us. We do not accept bookings that are conditional upon any special request being met.
We may provide you the option to request extras in addition to our standard packages (‘add-on(s)’). Such add-on(s) options may include extensions, extra accommodation, upgrades and/or domestic flights, but will vary depending on when you make a booking with us. Such add-on(s) may result in a higher non-refundable deposit and/or nonrefundable charges in addition to our standard package and you will be notified of the total price of your holiday before your booking is confirmed. Please note that where a flight upgrade has been booked and there is a change of airline prior to your departure date it may not be possible to offer an equivalent upgrade or there may be an additional cost payable (we will refund you the difference if the upgrade with the new airline is of a lower value). In this situation, we will offer you the opportunity to revert to economy class and refund you the cost of the upgrade, pay any additional costs for the equivalent upgrade or cancel with a full refund of all monies paid. Compensation will not be payable.
18. Disabilities and medical problems
We will do our utmost to cater for any special requirements you may have. If you or any member of your party has any medical condition you must provide us with full details before you make your booking so we can try to advise you as to the suitability of your chosen arrangements. If any further health conditions arise before your travel date, please let us know as soon as you can. We may require a doctor’s certificate to confirm that you are fit to participate.
Acting reasonably, if we are unable to properly accommodate the needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking or if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will cancel it and impose applicable cancellation charges when we become aware of these details.
19. Entry, passport, visa and immigration requirements, safety and health formalities
We can only provide general information regarding the entry, passport, visa, immigration requirements and safety and health formalities applicable to your itinerary. It is your responsibility to check such requirements (in good time before departure) in order to make your decisions to fulfil such requirements regarding your destination and/or the country(ies) through which you may be transiting.
Such information which you may need to check includes (but is not limited to) passport requirements including (but not limited to) how valid your passport must be after return date, whether your passport must be machine readable or which visas/waivers may be required for entry such as ESTA for USA travel and/or ETIAS for EU travel).
You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances with the relevant bodies as applicable. We have provided a few useful resources below, though it is your responsibility to check and see if such a body would be relevant to yourself.
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (“FCDO”, https://www.gov.uk/ travelaware) (applicable to UK residents); UK Passport Office (0870 5210410 or https://www.gov.uk/browse/citizenship). Embassies, High Commission and/or Consulates; Own doctor.
For UK residents booking European travel you should obtain a UK Global Health Insurance Card (UK GHIC) prior to departure unless you are able to rely upon an existing European Health Insurance Card (EHIC). For travel to Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland, UK GHIC and EHIC cannot be used for medical treatment. Passengers to these destinations should obtain comprehensive medical insurance prior to departure, including cover for emergency medical treatment and associated costs.
We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any entry, passport, visa, immigration requirements or safety and health formalities. You agree to reimburse us in relation to any fines or other losses which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any entry passport, visa, immigration requirements or safety and health formalities. 20. Insurance
Adequate travel insurance is mandatory for everyone travelling on a holiday with us and is a condition of booking (UK and overseas holidays). You must be satisfied that your insurance fully covers all your personal requirements including pre-existing medical conditions, cancellation charges, medical expenses and repatriation in the event of accident or illness. 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.
All booking conditions will be subject to the booking conditions on our website. Please visit hfholidays.co.uk/booking-conditions to view our booking conditions in full.

HF Holidays Guest
“The holiday matched completely my expectations. The walking tours were amazing and well organised. There was everyday the possibility of choosing among different options with different levels of difficulty. The leaders prepared and friendly. The accommodation was good as well as the food. The staff of HF Holidays always polite and helpful. The leaders also organised activities for the evenings after dinner. I really appreciated the fact that the guests came from different countries, even overseas. From the point of view of socialising there was a very pleasant and interesting atmosphere.”
