Please read this page carefully before booking. It relates to your financial security and
personal safety. By making a booking you will be agreeing to all these terms. Without
your agreement to them (by signing on the booking form) we cannot accept your booking.

Cancellation Costs
If I have to cancel I accept that Othona returns a varying proportion of my payment:
More than 4 weeks ahead of the event start date: all but the deposit
Less than 4 weeks, more than 1 week ahead: 50%
Less than 1 week ahead: 10%
On or after start date: nil
I am aware I could take out insurance against loss due to cancellation.

Recreation at Othona
One of the delights of Othona is its relatively ‘wild’ outdoor environment. We want to
keep this open to all and safe for all. Please read this carefully as it constitutes part
of your terms and conditions for booking.

By booking to stay at the Othona Community at Burton Bradstock DT6 4RN I am
agreeing to all of the following:
Any or all of the members of my family or party listed on the booking form may
want to play and engage in other recreational activities in the grounds of the Othona
Community, including use of the equipment known as the Treehouse.

I understand that:
a. The grounds include varied terrain on which care is needed to avoid accidental
injury. They are largely ‘undomesticated’ for the sake of wildlife and bio-diversity.
There may be plants growing wild which are poisonous if eaten.
b. As in any wild environment, common sense is needed to enjoy the surroundings
and avoid danger.
c. The possibility of injury to myself and others will always exist.

I confirm that:
a. I am aware and accept that there are potential risks to myself and others and
I will not deliberately endanger myself or others.
b. I acknowledge and accept the responsibility for the supervision of any child
of mine who plays in the grounds, including use of the Treehouse.
c. I will comply - and ensure any child of mine complies – with the Othona
Community guidelines as to use of the Treehouse or any other play equipment.
d. I will only allow my child(ren) to use the Treehouse when I have satisfied myself
that it is safe for them to do so.

I hereby release, remise and forever discharge from any claims and liabilities
whatsoever without limitation the Othona Community, its employees and volunteer
helpers and any other person playing in the grounds who might injure me or my
child(ren) howsoever arising, and I make this release on behalf of myself, my heirs,
executors and administrators.
