  9. Eye Kettleby Lakes regret we cannot accept responsibility or pay any compensation where the performance or prompt performance of our contract with you (signed booking form) is prevented or affected by reason of circumstances which amount to force majeure. Circumstances amounting to force majeure include any event which we could not even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Such circumstances include the destruction or damage of your holiday home. (Which cannot reasonably be remedied to a satisfactory standard before the start of your holiday) through fire, flood explosion, storm or other weather damage (including a period of electricity failure), break-in, criminal damage or any similar event.

  11. Hot tubs, saunas and fishing lakes are provided, but are unsupervised and are therefore used entirely at your own risk.
  12. We maintain our hot tubs on a daily basis. In the event of inappropriate use resulting in chemical imbalances and the need to drain and refill the hot tub, a charge of £50 will be made to the person who made the booking. Guides to the proper use of our hot tubs are available in each of our lodges. Please be aware that for health and safety regulations we drain our hot tubs every two weeks, this will be done on Monday mornings, and therefore could result in the hot tub being out of use for a day of your stay.
