Terms and Conditions 

We hope that you and your dog(s) enjoy your time at our Private Hire Exercise Field. To ensure safety and enjoyment for yourself, your dog(s) and others, please read the following.

It is understood that you accept the following terms and conditions each time you use the facility.

Booking is deemed as agreement to these terms and conditions:

During the COVID – 19 Pandemic we are only allowing a maximum of 2 people of the same household to use the field at any one time.

One car per booking slot only.

All dogs using the field must be from the same household.

Under no circumstances must any groups from different households use the field under the current government guidelines.

If possible please wear clean gloves when touching the gate, padlock or water tap.

Appointment times are for 45 minutes. Arriving on the hour, departing at quarter to the hour, this gives us time to disinfect the gate, padlock and water facilities after each customer and ensures no contamination on the cross over with the next arriving customer.

We cannot be held responsible for any accident, incident or injury to users of Stage1hydrotherapy’s Private Hire Exercise Field. Every reasonable precaution has been taken to ensure the safety of users and their dogs.

Use of Stage1hydrotherapy’s Private Hire Exercise Field is at the dog owners/handlers own risk. We recommend that you have public liability insurance – often this is included in your home/pet insurance.

It is strictly forbidden to enter the property from the hydrotherapy car park to the exercise field on foot. We have our own dogs that may be loose in their own paddock that would get very stressed by people and their dogs walking to the exercise field. Hence vehicular entry is the only way to access our field. Any person seen walking in any other area other than the Private Hire Exercise Field will be banned from further use without question.

Dogs must be loaded back into your vehicle by the end of the booked time to ensure the next booking can start on time.

Dogs must not be allowed out of your vehicle until the previous user has safely vacated the facility and you have driven into the field with the gate fully shut and secured.

Users must clean up after their dogs and take all dog waste and rubbish away with them.

Please do not turn your vehicle around in the field. Use the hard standing only and reverse out or in. 

Users must report any accident, incident or injury to us immediately by contacting 07766551376. 

Users must not leave any dog unattended or unsupervised at any time whilst on the premises.

Users must respect the area and contents. Children must not be allowed to climb our fences or gates. Users must keep dogs and children in sight at all times whilst using this facility.

Whilst the paddock is secure, we cannot guarantee complete security for every dog.

Stage1hydrotherapy’s Private Hire Exercise Field can not be held responsible should your dog escape.

Users must not bring to the facility any dog that appears unwell or is known to have an infectious disease.

Persons under the age of 18 should accompanied by an adult at all times.

Users must ensure they lock the gate from the inside using the paddock for their own safety.

Users must lock the paddock after use with the locks provided. Users must lock the paddock gate on exit even if the next user is waiting.

Vehicles are parked entirely at the owners risk. Stage1hydrotherapy’s Private Hire Exercise Field cannot be held responsible for any accidents, damage or loss incurred to vehicles or their contents and valuables.

Users must ensure the water tap is not left running after use.

Users must discourage their dog from digging in the field. Any holes must be filled in by the user prior to leaving the facility. Failure to rectify any damage caused may result in a charge.

Parts of the paddock may not be completely level – users should be aware of this to avoid injury to themselves or their dogs.

If users arrive late, bookings cannot be extended. You must still vacate the field on time.

Refunds can be made if bookings are cancelled at least 24 hours before the booked slot.

If we have to close the field due to weather or technical reasons we will notify customers as soon as possible and re-book or refund as required.

The user who makes the booking is the responsible person for all other persons, dogs and vehicles.

Stage1hydrotherapy’s Private Hire Exercise Field reserve the right to consider changes at any time or amend these terms and conditions of use at any time.

We reserve the right to refuse bookings from anyone that does not comply with our terms and conditions.
