Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions about UK holiday deals

Booking Process

How do I book a holiday deal through your website?

Booking through our website is simple. When you find a deal you like, click on it to view the full details. Then click the "Book Now" or similar button, which will direct you to the holiday provider's website where you can complete your booking. The discount or special offer will either be automatically applied, or we'll provide a voucher code for you to enter at checkout.

We don't process bookings directly – we connect you with trusted UK holiday providers who handle all reservations and payments.

Do I need to create an account to book a holiday?

You don't need an account with BargainUKHolidays.com to browse or book deals. However, creating a free account lets you save favourite deals, set up deal alerts, and receive personalized recommendations based on your preferences.

When you proceed to book with the holiday provider, they may require you to create an account on their website to complete your reservation.

How do I know my booking is confirmed?

After completing your booking on the holiday provider's website, you should receive a confirmation email directly from them. This email will include your booking reference number, payment details, and important information about your holiday.

If you don't receive a confirmation within 24 hours of booking, we recommend contacting the holiday provider directly using the contact details provided in their listing.

Can I book for large groups or multiple accommodations?

Yes, many of our partners can accommodate large group bookings. Look for listings that specifically mention group bookings or multiple accommodation options. For very large groups, you might need to contact the holiday provider directly to discuss your requirements.

For specific information about group bookings, check the details on the deal page or follow the link to the provider's website.

About Our Deals

How often are new deals added to the website?

We add new deals daily. Our team is constantly working with holiday providers across the UK to secure exclusive offers and discounts for our users.

To stay updated on the latest deals, you can sign up for our email newsletter or check our homepage regularly.

Are your deals really exclusive? Can I find them elsewhere?

Many of our deals are negotiated exclusively for BargainUKHolidays.com users and cannot be found elsewhere. We work directly with holiday providers to secure special rates and offers.

Even for offers that might be available through other channels, we carefully verify that they represent genuine value before listing them on our site.

Why are some deals limited-time only?

Limited-time deals are typically special promotions that holiday providers can only offer for a short period. These might be flash sales, seasonal promotions, or offers designed to fill specific accommodation during quieter periods.

We always clearly display the expiration date for these deals, so you know exactly how long you have to book.

What types of holiday accommodations do you offer deals for?

We offer deals across a wide range of UK holiday accommodations, including:

  • Holiday cottages and homes
  • Holiday parks and resorts
  • Hotels and B&Bs
  • Glamping and camping sites
  • Lodges and log cabins
  • Apartment rentals
  • Luxury properties

You can use our search filters to find specific types of accommodation that suit your preferences.

Payments & Pricing

How do I pay for my holiday booking?

All payments are processed directly through the holiday provider's website after you click through from our site. Most providers accept major credit and debit cards, and some may offer alternative payment methods like PayPal or bank transfers.

The specific payment options will be displayed during the checkout process on the provider's website.

Are there any hidden fees when booking through your site?

BargainUKHolidays.com doesn't charge any fees to users. Our service is completely free for holidaymakers.

The prices displayed for each deal should include all mandatory charges. However, some holiday providers may have additional optional fees for specific services (like cleaning, pet fees, or premium amenities). These should be clearly displayed during the booking process.

Do I need to pay the full amount upfront?

Payment terms vary depending on the holiday provider. Many providers offer low deposit options, especially for bookings made well in advance. The specific deposit amount and payment schedule will be clearly explained during the booking process.

We highlight deals with particularly low deposits (such as £25 or £30) directly in our listings to help you find flexible payment options.

How do I use discount codes or vouchers?

For deals that require a discount code, we'll display this prominently on the deal page. Simply copy this code and enter it in the designated field during checkout on the holiday provider's website.

If you're having trouble applying a discount code, please contact us and we'll be happy to assist.

Cancellations & Changes

What is your cancellation policy?

As BargainUKHolidays.com is a deals listing site rather than a booking platform, the cancellation policy for each holiday booking is determined by the individual holiday provider.

Cancellation policies vary between providers, but they should be clearly displayed during the booking process. We recommend reading these policies carefully before confirming your reservation.

Can I change the dates of my booking?

Date changes need to be arranged directly with the holiday provider. Most providers will try to accommodate date changes when possible, though this may depend on availability and their specific policies.

Be aware that date changes, especially for promotional rates or special offers, might incur additional charges or require adjustment to the price you pay.

What happens if I need to cancel due to illness or emergency?

We strongly recommend purchasing appropriate travel insurance that covers holiday cancellations due to illness or emergencies. This provides financial protection if you need to cancel unexpectedly.

If you need to cancel for these reasons, contact the holiday provider as soon as possible. Some providers may offer more flexible terms for cancellations due to genuine emergencies, but this varies.

What if the holiday provider cancels my booking?

In the rare event that a holiday provider needs to cancel your booking, they should contact you directly with options. These typically include a full refund or rebooking for alternative dates.

If you face any difficulties with a provider-initiated cancellation, please contact our support team who can help mediate the situation.
