Frequently Asked Questions:
PAYMENTS AND BOOKING CONFIRMATIONS
Q- I am trying to make a booking and I cannot make a payment. Is there some other way I can make a booking?
A - Customers have experienced problems in the past with some card payments being refused for no reason. If you use an out of date server it may cause payments to be affected. Card processors are introducing extra security which can affect some credit and debit cards nationally. We have taken action to resolve issues. If you experience problems please email us at millhillfarmcamping@live.co.uk with your requirements.
Q - I have tried to make a booking on line but I have not received a booking confirmation email. Has my booking been successful?
A- The banks and payment processors have added extra security recently which can affect the success of payments going through. Following the successful capture of your card details by Worldpay and approval by your bank an online booking confirmation email will automatically be sent to the email address that you have provided. We then follow this up with a booking confirmation email, usually the next day. One week before your holiday, or sooner if the booking is made less than a week before arrival, you will receive a welcome email with your booking details, and in the case of a booking for the pod, your keysafe code. Please check your spam folder and allow emails from noreply@gemapark.co.uk
If you do not receive any booking confirmation emails please call us on 01728 668555 (answerphone) or email millhillfarmcamping@live.co.uk with your booking details and we will look into it for you.

MOTORHOMES AND EXTRA CARS
Q- I tow a car on an A frame or trailer behind my motorhome. Do I have to pay for an extra car ?
A- If a small car is attached to the motorhome by an A frame or trailer it is included as part of the unit and there is no extra charge. However it is best to advise us that you will be bringing a small extra car or trailer as this could affect the pitch allocation. An additional car that is driven in separately is classed as an extra car and will be charged at the prevailing rate for an additional car. Due to space limitations please do not bring an extra car if you are bringing one as an attachment. Only 2 vehicles per pitch please i.e. motorhome and toad.
