SWIM REFUND POLICY
Unless you have purchased your SWIM CREDITS within the last 14 days you will not get a refund - it is not practical for a business like ours to issue refunds outside the statuary 14 day 'cooling off' period for online sales - we are sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear but it is our policy which you agreed to when you joined as a swim member - if you want to know more please see below...
​
WE DO NOT ISSUE REFUNDS! When you buy SWIM CREDITS to use during any SWIM SEASON you are agreeing that these credits will be used by the published 'last day of season' which is currently 9 am to 12.30 pm on Sunday 29th September 2024.
​
You have purchased access credits to use our facilities, a bit like purchasing a monthly gym membership you have agreed to use these credits before they expire on the last swim session of the season.
​
The terms & conditions are quite clear that they have no cash value and cannot be refunded at any point.
​
There are plenty of sessions available spread across 5 swim sessions a week throughout the season.
​
It is unfair to expect us to refund your purchase because you decided it 'wasn't for you' or if you 'didn't have time to swim' or 'suffered an injury or illness'.
​
These things and any other reasons are outside our control and just like buying that gym membership in a rush of excited intention in the January sale... but never using it... you won't get a refund if you decide not to go or can't use it for any other reason.
It is really important that you viewed the TERMS & CONDITIONS when you purchased your swim credit - These are totally transparent and visible when you go through the purchase process (you have to tick to say you have read them before you can proceed to payment) and are really clear - the initial sales screen is shown as image one to the right of this page (or scroll down if viewing on a mobile device), the second image is a copy of the general terms & conditions you ticked to say you had read and is available in full on the booking app if you want to read it.
​​
The third image is the CHECKOT screen showing the 'tick box' that has to be ticked prior to moving through to the actual payment capture... you cannot move through until this has been ticked.
​
In addition to the terms & conditions you also signed up as a member via our yearly 'MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION' form and ticked and signed the CONDITIONS OF MEMBERSHIP form at the end.
​
The images below shows the membership terms & conditions that you ticked and then signed and submitted to be accepted as a member - you would not be able to swim at our lake unless you have signed and filed this form prior to your first swim session. A full copy of these is available on request if you didnt print them at the time of submission.
​
​
​
​
Please remember that we do have a 'Pay as You Go' option every year where you simply sign up and pay for a single swim session each time you visit, if you are at all unsure if you will get best value from a pre paid number of swims then this is probably the best option for you.
​
If you have any other reason you believe you might be considered for a refund then please email us using the CONTACT US link above but please be aware that we have a lot of incoming emails and booking enquiries so it is unlikely you will get a fast reply as our policies are quite clear and readily available on the booking app... but you never know... you might catch us on a good day ;-)
