Booking system
A booking chart for the following calendar year is circulated 
in priority order before the owners’ annual meeting. 

Each owner has a priority for that year, and moves up a couple 
of places each year: after a year at the top of the list, the owner 
then starts at the bottom, and after six years the cycle begins again.

Each owner can choose two weeks (separately or as a fortnight) 
in the ‘high season’ (April to October inclusive), and one week 
in the remainder of the year.

By this route, thirty-six weeks are firmly booked before the 
year begins. Allowing for time for winter maintenance, the 
remaining fourteen weeks are booked with priority in reverse 
order to the original chart, so having last choice originally does 
have its compensations. These extra bookings are confirmed 
on the first day of the month before the month of the booking.
Priority for school holidaysUp to three designated "special" shares have priority booking 
of school holiday weeks and pay a higher proportion of the costs 
than "ordinary" shares thus reducing the other nine shares contributions.

At present (2024) NO owners have this status attached to their shares.
