    5.37 If any of these Terms and Conditions for Group Bookings and Events shall be found by a Court or other competent authority to be invalid, ineffective or unenforceable, the rest of the Terms and Conditions for Group Bookings and Events shall continue to be valid and enforceable.

  • HOUSE RULES

    Updated October 2018

    (EACH VENUE HAS A NUMBER OF UNIQUE FEATURES THAT ARE COVERED BELOW)

    SOLENT FORTS

    1. Make sure you are fully protected for your boat journey, flat shoes, a coat or jacket are a must.
    2. The sea is a busy place and boats must leave on time. Please make sure you are not late as we cannot wait! If you miss the boat, we may be able to send a boat to collect you but you will be charged for journey.
    3. From time to time, the power may fluctuate, remember this is a remote Fort in the middle of the sea.
    4. The Forts are full of original features, spiral stairs, thin alleys, and lots of steps; please be aware and take care.
    5. The Forts have walls in excess of 5m thick and it can be difficult to get either a mobile phone signal or internet connection in certain parts. Please ask a member of staff for advice on where to find the best signals.
    6. Always be safe when enjoying a hot tub or sauna and follow our safety guidelines.
    7. Your safety is important to us. If the weather and sea conditions prevent us from transporting you safely, please be aware that every effort will have been made; however, we may have to cancel or postpone for safety reasons – sorry!
    8. A range of sports and leisure pursuits can be undertaken at or near the Forts including high speed boat trips and water based activities. Please note that participation of any sporting or leisure pursuits/ activities, either held at or organised by the Venue, is entirely at the Client and/or their guests risk. Some of the activities carry a degree of risk and Clarenco, the Venue or its staff cannot be held responsible for any accidents, injuries, losses or illness however caused.
    9. The Forts are historic buildings and were built for soldiers and are, therefore, not child friendly. Children under the age of 12 are not allowed on the forts under any circumstances. Children between the age of 12 to 17 and vulnerable adults are only allowed to visit the forts during the day and may not stay the night. Parents of any child wishing to visit the forts in the daytime are to sign a disclaimer (before they board the boat to the forts) and must accompany/supervise their child at all times. Fort staff are unable to supervise children or be on their own with them at any time.
