Creative Course Payment Terms

Please read our Standard Booking and Cancellation Policies below, and before booking a place on one of our courses, please read our guidelines. By completing an online reservation form, you are signifying your acceptance with and agreement to our Terms and Conditions:

Is your travel and accommodation covered by your Travel Insurance Policy? We strongly recommend that you take out adequate insurance cover in accordance with UK Government guidelines (or the guidelines issued by your own country of residence):

If your travel is essential, make sure you have appropriate insurance for overseas travel, and purchase it as soon as you book your travel. You should check the detail of your travel insurance to see what it covers, and contact your insurance provider if you have any questions.

You may need to consider a specialist policy. It’s your responsibility to make sure you’re covered. Read our guidance on purchasing insurance.

If a course cannot run for any unexpected or unusual circumstance beyond our control, such as war or a pandemic, we will immediately do everything we can to reschedule the course for a future date.

If alternative dates are not possible, your travel plans have been adversely affected by circumstances beyond your or our control and your Travel Insurance Policy does not cover you for cancellation of accommodation, then we will consider a refund of part or all of any monies paid. We will only consider refunding monies paid if travel and accommodation provision are not possible due to government or airline restrictions surrounding circumstances beyond our control and preventing us from providing you with the contracted services. If clients cancel their reservations for any other reason, then our standard Payment Terms apply.

If we are unable to honour your reservation due to any Government restrictions related to exceptional circumstances that prevent us from receiving guests, then we will make every effort to reschedule your booking to an alternative date once restrictions are lifted. If we are unable to find an alternative date, then we will consider a full or part refund of all monies paid.

Reservations for a Granada Cultural Holidays Creative Course will only be confirmed by Granada Cultural Holidays upon receipt of a deposit, typically 40% of the total cost of the creative course for participants and/or their guests. The total cost of the course will be provided in writing by Granada Cultural Holidays to the Client on receipt of a completed Reservation Form.

Services provided by Granada Cultural Holidays for each Creative Course are outlined in the relevant website page for each specific course. Please check the details of the course prior to confirming your booking. Under certain circumstances, some of the course details may change due to weather, third-party cancellation, ill-health or other unexpected events. In the event of any such change, clients will be informed in writing and every step will be taken by Granada Cultural Holidays to provide an alternative service of equivalent, or better, value. If it is not possible to provide an alternative service, a full or part refund may be offered. Likewise, in some rare circumstances the venue for a course may change; this may be due to low participant numbers. If we do have to change venue, the alternative venue will be of an equivalent, or superior standard, and all affected clients will be notified in writing of the change.

All deposit and balance payments are non-refundable except in those rare circumstances that Granada Cultural Holidays makes the decision to cancel a particular course (see below). A deposit payment, typically of 40% of the total course course, will be payable to confirm a course booking. No booking is confirmed until the deposit has been paid and acknowledged. The balance payment will be due no later than 6 weeks prior to the commencement of the particular course. Late balance payments may result in the cancellation of your booking and forfeit of your deposit payment. For any reservations made within 6 weeks of the commencement of the course, full payment for the course will be required to confirm the booking.

If insufficient participants confirm places on a particular course, and that course becomes unviable, Granada Cultural Holidays reserves the right to cancel the course. In such an event, the decision to cancel will be taken no later than 6 weeks prior to the commencement of the course, and a full refund of fees paid by confirmed participants will be arranged.

Granada Cultural Holidays cannot be held responsible for any external costs incurred by any client in preparation for a course in the event of that course being cancelled. Such costs include air fares, travel insurance, visa fees or car hire.

Course costs, as outlined in your Booking Confirmation sent on receipt of your completed Reservation Form, do not include the following: Flights, car hire, private excursions that are not included in the Granada Cultural Holidays Course Content, tickets for The Alhambra Palace in Granada and any additional equipment that is not stated as being included in the Granada Cultural Holidays Course Content. Course costs do not include meals and beverages taken on any specified non-teaching day where clients make their own arrangements away from the accommodation.

Granada Cultural Holidays strongly recommends that all participating and non-participating guests take out travel insurance for the duration of their booking. Participating and non-participating course guests must inform Granada Cultural Holidays, in advance, of any pre-existing health-related issues, disabilities, allergies and intolerances. Granada Cultural Holidays cannot be held liable for any such issues and clients must take their own precautions to ensure adequate cover is provided in the event of any pre-existing health-related issue.
