The brochure is merely a guide for you to make your holiday choice and we cannot accept responsibility for changes that may occur. YORKSHIRE ROSE HOLIDAYS CUSTOMER PROMISE 1, THE PRICE OF YOUR HOLIDAY The price of your holiday is guaranteed and will not be subject to any surcharges except for those resulting from fuel costs, government action, including additional bonding or licensing requirements and VAT. In all cases we reserve the right to pass these amounts on in full. Holiday prices include all coach travel, hotel accommodation and meals as specified in the holiday description and VAT at the current rate where applicable. Morning coffee, afternoon tea and other refreshments are not included unless otherwise stated. Some hotels may make a small additional charge for any porterage and tea or coffee served after a meal. Gratuities to the hotel staff and driver/courier are discretionary. 2, IF WE CANCEL YOUR HOLIDAY It is necessary for there to be a minimum number of passengers on a tour in order for the tour to operate. In certain circumstances, therefore, we may have to cancel your holiday, and if this should occur we will return to you all moneis paid to us, or offer you a suitable alternative. However we will not normally cancel your holiday, a) immediately prior to the departure date unless you have not paid for your holiday in full. b) After the balance due date, except as a result of hostilities, political unrest or other circumstances amounting to force majeure, also including strike action. If we have to cancel your holiday at any time, Yorkshire Rose Holidays are liable only for any monies you may have paid to us at the time of cancellation. 3, OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO YOU We accept responsibility for ensuring that all component parts of your holiday as described in our brochure are supplied to you to a reasonable standard. If any such part is not provided in the advertised manner, we will pay you reasonable compensation unless the non-provision was due to circumstances which we could not predict and which were beyond our control such as adverse weather, road or traffic conditions. Please remember that some amenities (e.g. hotel lifts, swimming pools, etc.) require servicing and cleaning and may not therefore be available at all times. Some services may be affected by weather conditions and their availability is entirely at the discretion of the provider of the service. Entertainment provided by hotels is frequently subject to demand and its nature and/or frequency may be varied if there is a lack of demand or insufficient numbers staying at the hotel. The published running times of services are estimates only and we will not be liable for any loss (howsoever caused) arising from delay or failure to operate services in accordance with published timings. HOLIDAY INFORMATION 1, CHILD REDUCTIONS On most holidays, reductions are available for children aged between 2 and 14 providing the child shares a room with 2 full fare paying passengers, although there are some variations.

A small holdall can be taken on board the coach. 3, WHEELCHAIRS / DISABLED PASSENGERS Wheelchairs must be flat folding due to space limitations.

You are responsible for ensuring that you are at the correct departure point at the correct time, and we cannot be liable for any loss or expense suffered by passengers because of their late arrival at any departure point.

Seat requests can be made on most holidays when booking. However, since allocations are made on a first come, first served basis, early booking is advisable for preferred seats. There is a seating plan of the coach for each holiday, but it is possible that, on occasions, for operational reasons, a coach of different configuration may be used and we must therefore reserve the right to amend a seating plan and allocate seats other than those you have booked. We shall have no liability in relation to any such change of specification. Specific seats will not be allocated on feeder vehicles.

Yorkshire Rose Family Update The wonder returns, after 10 months sunning it up in the American sunshine James is home, long hair and in need of a razor, but some things will never change!!! We say home, back for now but not for long as he will be setting of for 2 weeks in South Africa in October to complete a 100km charity walk to provide schools to under privileged children. Details of charity day trips will be released to help him get to the £2500 target. Laura (James’ now fiancée) has returned with a ring on her finger and will hopefully someday be making an honest man of him. Due to the engagement, obviously without delay Steve is on yet another diet to squeeze into a suit. Alfie’s growing up fast, just started play school, although he does struggle to find time along with running the office and cleaning coaches. Katie (David’s Wife) & Jess (Lynn’s Daughter) will be taking part in this year’s “Wild Wild West” Midnight Walk in aid of Barnsley Hospice on 29th June. Any sponsorship donations can be made at our office and would be greatly appreciated. As some of you may be aware this year we have added two more brand new tour coaches to our fleet.

Happy travels and we look

forward to seeing you all soon!
