If their chosen pitch or accommodation is available, it will be assigned to them, and they will be required to pay a €10 fee.
However, in the event of force majeure, WILD BED reserves the right to change the allocation of pitches or rental accommodations.

CHANGE OF STAY

A request to modify the services included in the stay may be made up to 10 days before arrival. In this case, WILD BED will do its best to accommodate the request, subject to availability and provided the chosen rate allows for modifications. This modification request is subject to a €30 fee per rental unit and/or pitch. Should WILD BED be obliged to modify the services initially included in the stay, it will make every effort to provide similar services. If it is impossible to provide equivalent services, the client should refer to the "Cancellation and Refund" section.
