Moyvalley Hotel and Golf Resort - Golf Booking Terms & Conditions
Booking Policy
===================
Credit/debit card details are required to guarantee individual tee times at the time of booking online, in-person and over the phone. On arrival, green fees and competition entry fees can be paid for in cash, or by credit/debit card.
All bookings of 12 or more must be secured with a €200 deposit, at the time of booking. The balance of green fees/entry fees must be settled in full prior to play. If a deposit remains outstanding more than 14 days after the deposit request is made, Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort reserve the right to cancel the booking.

Cancellation Policy
===================
Individual bookings and small groups up to 11 people:
You can cancel your booking by emailing golf@moyvalley.com using the email address that was used at the time of the booking.
If you cancel your booking more than 48 hours before your booked tee time, there will be no charge made to your credit/debit card.
If you cancel your booking less than 48 hours in advance, there will be a charge of 100% of the green fee/competition entry fee made to your credit/debit card. Your booking is completely transferable to another person for the same day and time, therefore, should you be unable to make your tee time, you can offer the tee time to someone else such as a family member or friend.
Bookings for 12 people and more:
Cancellations/changes for groups of 12 or more must be confirmed in writing to golf@moyvalley.com
Cancellations received 4 weeks or more in advance of date of play: the deposit will be transferred to another date or refunded as required at the discretion of Moyvalley Hotel and Golf Resort.
If the cancellation is received less than 4 weeks in advance of date of play: the deposit received is non-refundable.
Moyvalley Hotel and Golf Resort will accept up to 10% reductions to the numbers booked, provided any reduction is received and agreed by Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort no later than 3 days prior to the day of play. (ie on the preceding Wednesday for a Saturday booking)
Visiting groups, including societies, are advised that any shortfall in numbers after the final confirmation, 3 days in advance, will be charged in full. This applies to golf and food that has been pre-booked.
In the event of a reduced number of golfers or no-shows on the day of play, full payment is due for unused tee times.
Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort requests that the group event organiser make each member of his/her group aware of the above conditions.
Four-ball Policy
===================
To facilitate the smooth running of the time sheet in terms of pace of play and where the time sheet is busy, Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort reserve the right to pair groups up into four-balls where possible.
If a single golfer, pair or three-ball wish to have a whole line to themselves, please contact our Golf Shop who can advise on options available. A surcharge may apply for this service.
Golf societies must play in four-balls as far as is reasonably possible. For example, a group of 18 golfers must play in 3 x Four-Balls and Two Three-Balls.
Course Closure Policy
===================
In the event of course closure, where Management deems the course unplayable, an alternative date will be offered (based on availability) or payment will be refunded at the discretion of Management.
Please note that inclement weather in itself does not constitute a reason to close the course and golfers that choose not to go out or leave the course of their own volition will be charged in full and no refunds granted.
Dangerous Situations
===================
Where a dangerous situation occurs, such as lightning, all players are required to leave the course immediately and seek shelter indoors. Temporary suspensions of play for lightning and other dangerous situations will be kept to a minimum. Where play cannot be resumed, and/or the delay is greater than 90 minutes and golfers choose not to wait longer, green fee vouchers will be issued for golfers to return on another day.
