Helpful Hints & Tips

Activities

To make planning your holiday as easy as possible, activity bookings will open 12 weeks from the start of your holiday, in line with restaurant bookings.

 

You’ll be able to make your bookings via the My Haven Experience app or at haven.com/experience and will be able to book both free and paid for activities.

 

Activity bookings can also be made once you arrive on park, however due to limited capacity, we’d always recommend booking in advance to ensure you get everything you’re after! 

Please note, whilst we have a lot of free activities for you to get stuck into, some of our activities do require a small additional charge to book.

 

Ants

During warm periods the appearance of ants is common. Advice from the Local Environmental Health Officer confirms that they do appear for no apparent reason and do not reflect any lack of hygiene.  They can only be attributed to a force of nature, but we apologise for any distress or inconvenience this situation may cause you. For safety reasons all holiday homes have vents, hence there will always be access points for such insects. To discourage their presence please do not leave food exposed, particularly in the kitchen. We do have ant spray on Park should you wish the team to apply this around the vents in your holiday home, please visit Reception

 

 

Arrival day activities  

If you want to book activities for your arrival day, this can be done seven days before your arrival date. Once within the seven days, you'll be able to book activities from 1pm. Please note, you’ll also be able to book activities for your first day via the Activity Booking Point on park once you’ve checked in (subject to availability). 

Activities are only available to our Holiday guests, Private Let guests who have purchased a Play Pass and our owners. Please bring your Play Pass or Owner Card with you. 

 

Arrival

Please visit the My Haven Experience app or haven.com/experience 7 days before arrival for your allocated check-in time. Please do not arrive before your allocated check-in time. If you arrive outside of your designated time, we may kindly ask for you to wait until a member of team becomes available to assist.

 

Arriving late: please let us know on the My Haven Experience app or via haven.com/experience when you get your allocated arrival time. We will then know to expect you later.

 

Barbecues

Get your sizzle on in safety. Please keep barbecues away from holiday homes, verandas, and the external gas bottles. They must also be elevated. Be sure that they’re completely put out before you leave them.

 

Bars and restaurants

We have two venues for wining or dining: The Brigs of Tweed bar and restaurant, and the Live Lounge entertainment venue – both are in the FunWorks amusement arcade.

 

You can pre-book a restaurant table on the My Haven Experience app or via haven.com/experience 12 weeks before your holiday or by visiting the restaurant once on park. There will be no table bookings in entertainment venues and tables will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

 

Buses

There’s also a council-run shuttle bus to the High Street on selected dates. If you want to travel further afield, buses run from the train station. Border Buses timetables are available from Reception.

 

Car parking

Our grassy areas are important to us. Please avoid parking on them and use the dedicated space next to, or near your holiday accommodation. Please also be considerate of your neighbours too. We have Blue Badge spaces in the main complex for those who need them.

 

Cash machines

We have free-to-use cash machines next to Cook’s Fish and Chips and at the Mini Market.

 

Checking out

All good things come to an end – please check out by 10am. Please leave your key in the key box outside of the Reception main doors. If you are a Haven direct guest, please leave hire goods in the holiday home. Once our team have confirmed the collection and return of the hired goods, we will refund the deposit back onto the card that the payment was made from.

 

Child safety

We can’t give you eyes in the back of your head, but we can give you a brightly coloured wristband for little ones in case they wander off. Come and see us at Reception and we’ll add your contact details to it.

 

Direct beach access

Feel the sand between your toes with access direct from the park. The park is on top of a cliff with access to two beaches down steps - just be careful as the steps are quite steep. The sandy beach next to the golf course has a walkway down to the play park and another walkway accessible for buggies down to the beach.

 

Dogs

We’re fond of dogs on park and most breeds are welcome, just always keep them on a lead. Dogs are welcome on our outside areas of the park, including the decking area and the play park area which are accessed via a side gate, but they are not allowed in any of our indoor facilities or in our outdoor pool area. Guide and service dogs are welcome inside our venues. Please clean up after your dog – we have bins all around the park especially for this. Dogs are welcome on the beach all-year round.

 

Driving

We’re strict about speed on park. Please stick to 10mph when you’re driving around.

 

Electric vehicle (EV) charging points

We have electric charging points available

 

Emergencies

If you have an emergency, please call 999 and then our Reception and Security teams. This way we can direct them straight to you and come to your aid while you wait. If it’s not an emergency but you’d still like help, please call our Reception team on 01289 307113 our our Security team on 07775 921125 as we have trained first aiders on the park.

We know how important a postcard to Nan and Grandad is when you’re on holiday, so drop in any pre-stamped post to us at Reception, and we’ll make sure it gets off for you.

 

Remote controls

No luck finding the TV remote? You can operate it from the set itself. We may even have another one at Reception so it’s worth asking just in case.

Special requirements and accessibility

If you have any questions or have special requests please contact our Call Centre prior to booking, where we have specially trained advisors who can help with every aspect of your booking. They can discuss the suitability of the park - some areas of our park are more suitable for wheelchairs. If you have any questions while on the park, please ask the Reception team.

 

Swimming

We know that swimming is one of our most popular activities, so we have done everything we can to ensure as many of our guests get a chance to swim as possible. 

For indoor swimming, you can book slots before and during your stay. From four weeks before your break start date, you'll be able to pre-book up to 14 swim slots per holiday booking. You'll also be able to book more slots once you arrive on park, should capacity allow. 

Each swim slot lasts for 60 minutes and can be booked on the My Haven Experience app or at haven.com/experience. We're able to hold swim slots for up to 15 minutes, however if you fail to show after this time, the swim slot will be cancelled and given to another guest. 

There's no booking required to use our outdoor pools which will be open from May half term until the end of August Bank Holiday. If the weather allows, simply turn up when you fancy an outdoor swim. 

 

Takeaway

If you can’t have a takeaway on holiday, when can you? We have a Papa John’s® and
Cook’s Fish & Chips on our park, just waiting for you to enjoy. Papa John’s® will also deliver directly to your accommodation if required. Whether you’re ordering for collection, delivery or to eat in, all takeaway orders can be made via My Haven Experience app or haven.com/experience

 

Terrain of the park

The park is level by the top near the complex but going down towards The Glen, Farne Close, The Dunes and The Cheviots the terrain becomes quite steep.

Towels

We provide towels (2 hand towels per caravan and 1 bath towel per person) in our Gold and Signature grade accommodation.or you can hire some from Reception for a small charge and deposit.

Visitors

To maximise the opportunity for guests to access the swimming pools, activities, entertainment venue and restaurants included in their holiday package, all holidaymakers visiting our parks must be included on a valid holiday booking. Unfortunately, we don’t have the capacity on our parks to allow our guests to bring visitors to our parks.

 

WiFi

Due to the remoteness of our holiday parks the WiFi signal can vary. We do have free guest WiFi available in Brigs of Tweed and Reception. Unfortunately, there is no WiFi in our accommodation. Our apps work on Wifi and 4G, and if you do not have any signal, you can always book your activities with our Activity and Leisure team at the Activity Booking Point.
