Terms updated 20th November 18 (and part 24/2/19 BeachRoc)supersedes all others before this date. BeachRoc 2020 updates from 26/4/19.
Its an unfortunate part of the business having to provide these so people are fully aware regarding theirs(customers of MJRoc) and MJRoc commitments to bookings.
Our Holiday Contract with You
Our contract is made with you when you receive our written holiday confirmation. Our contract is subject to condition of booking as stated below. The personal details of all persons in the holiday party including FULL name and home address (ages of children) must be true and provided to us by the date stated on our communications to you, if you have pre-booked and paid deposits. It is your responsibility as LEAD NAME (if not a single booker) to contact and inform your group of all relevant information regarding the booking i.e. booking information and terms and conditions of contract. Parkdean Holidays/Trouville Hotel/Other Hotel/MJRoc reserves the right to decline or terminate the booking of any guest(s) whose behaviour interferes or may interfere with the general comfort of other guests. In this event no refunds will be made (NB – MJRoc and guests must adhere to all terms and conditions as stated by Parkdean Holidays/ Trouville Hotel/Other Hotels. A copy is available upon request).
Cancellation of your holiday by you
If you wish to cancel your holiday, this must be notified in writing by the lead person of the party (where possible). The date of cancellation is the date when we have received written notification. In the event cancellation charges will apply, as shown below, dependent on time scale. If your place is within a couple/group/paring/friends, no part deposits/refunds can be made, it is your role to fill that place/s and get your money back from the replacement. If you are a single booking, if you cancel but sell to another, this is still a full cancellation as any new replacement has to start with a new booking form and the process starts as well plus the closing audit on the original booking and new account for the replacement, therefore this in not permitted.

No action can be taken in respect of any complaint that has not been brought to the attention of a senior member of staff from MJRoc.
Damage Form and Responsibility - Warmwell event only
Parkdean Holiday Parks have introduced a Lodge Responsibility Form whereby the Lead Name of each Lodge (and each person in a Shared lodge who are deemed to be lead names) will sign such a form to state that they will take financial responsibility should any malicious damage take place in the lodge they are staying in. This is currently a tick box on the Booking Form. This is not for any broken plates/glasses (although these should be reported to Reception should this happen), but wilful and malicious damage to any part of the Lodge. Any incidents of malicious damage will be investigated by MJRoc and Parkdean to determine cause and responsibility and MJRoc will therefore seek financial compensation from the Lead Name to cover all costs incurred.
Gender Balance - Warmwell Event only
Female Lodges or Predominately Female Lodges (From your booking forms)
We do NOT advertise All female lodges or more females than men booking lodges. This supersedes our conditions previously and is based on all bookings for 2019 Warmwell booked from 20/11/18.

All FEMALE ONLY GROUP OR MORE FEMALES THAN MEN as an acceptance of this booking you fully understand your Group MUST promote and find men to book (and be fully paid) into Male(Stranger or a Male Groups collectively{not one person with a male group}) Only Lodges to counter balance the Events Gender Balance ratio. This counts from the moment the booking is made and up to when the final balance is due. If the number is not reached, no balance payment can be accepted. We need men who clearly state/d (on their booking forms) they were recommended by people in your Group, referrals cannot be backdated if not declared at the time the male/men book.

Launderette facilities are available for any washing you may need to do during your stay at your own cost.
Sharing Lodges
MJRoc Warmwell 2019
If you are in a Male/Female/Couple sharing lodge, this means you will have your own (or shared) room and will most probably be sharing with strangers. MJROC take no responsibility for non-compatibility of lodge-mates and will not be able to move any of the lodge-mates into another lodge. Therefore it is imperative that all lodge-mates are considerate with each other including sharing bathroom, kitchen and lounge times. You have all been allocated a specific room in the lodge, so please take note of which room you are in, and do not take anyone else's room. Also not making too much noise to wake your lodge-mates either late at night or early in the morning. Also, you are not permitted to have any extra people (male or female) staying in your lodge at any time as this is not fair to the other lodge-mates. There is also no smoking in any of the lodges.
If you have booked a place in either a Male or Female only “Stranger” lodge, the INVOICE will tell you the room you are booked into. (Please do not deviate from the room you have booked, i.e. if you are booked into the small twin room, you do not take i.e. the large room). There are three bedrooms in these lodges. Please note all Female & all Male lodges have other people in their own bedrooms sharing the same lodge. We do not put strangers into the same bedroom.
The room you have been booked into, it’s clearly shown what your booked room is and it is clearly shown on your Welcome Pack when you arrive at Warmwell plus its on all your Invoices. Because of this repeated problem and it continually waste our time sorting out at every event, if you cause problems as we had in 2017 when people refused to move back into their booked bedrooms, causing friction between lodge mates, your booking will be cancelled, you will be asked to leave the site immediately and no refund will be offered. Alternatively if the other person only agrees to stay in the enforced room, the room you should have been in, you have to immediately repay them twice the difference in room costs to compensate the hassle. MJRoc will no longer be subject to these annual problems and this statement is addition to the MJRoc Terms & Conditions.
Gender and Child Wrist Bands

You will be provided with gender wrist bands when you arrive and children’s wrist bands will also be issued (ages 5-15), this will give you access to the venue during the weekend. When completing the Booking Form, you must be truthful in stating the correct number of males/females and children ages (UNDER 16 AS OF THE EVENT DATES) so that we can maintain a good gender balance (at MJRoc’s discretion) and ensure we have the right number of wrist bands. Any attempt to mislead MJRoc will result in guest(s) being asked to leave the weekend, without refund. As lead name, it is your responsibility to tell your group of this rule. IF ANY MEMBER OF YOUR LODGE CANCELS, YOU MUST REPLACE THE PERSON OF THE SAME GENDER (AND INFORM MJROC OF ANY NAME CHANGES IMMEDIATELY), IF YOU TURN UP WITH A MEMBER OF THE OPPOSITE SEX THAN YOU HAVE BOOKED, WE WILL REFUSE ENTRY AND NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN.
