Allergies and dietary requirements
Please review our allergen portal to select dishes suitable for your specific food allergy or intolerance. It is your responsibility to ensure that they are suitable based on the information provided. Please also consider the information below. We use ingredients containing allergens in all our eateries. Whilst every care is taken when preparing dishes for guests with food allergies of intolerances to the 14 main allergens, it is not possible to guarantee that any product is 100% free from any allergen. Intended allergen ingredient and may contain information, from our suppliers, is available on our portal for all dishes on our menu. We recommend you check the portal on day of dining. All cooking oils are included in the overall allergy declaration for each dish. However, we use fryers to cook multiple dishes containing allergens, therefore dishes cooked in the fryers may not be suitable for guests with food allergies or intolerances. Please refer to the Allergen Portal for information regarding products cooked in fryers. All Gluten Free dishes are suitable for guests with Coeliac disease but may not be suitable for guest who are allergic to cereal proteins. Similarly, some vegan and vegetarian ingredients carry ‘may contain’ warnings so should not be relied on to avoid specific allergens, please check the portal. If you have made us aware of an allergy or intolerance, the dishes specifically prepared for you will be identified with a purple flag.
Allergen details for Las Iguanas, Amalfi, Bella Italia and Café Rouge do not feature on the Center Parcs allergen portal – instead each of these units will provide access to their allergen portal at point of ordering.

Fire action
In your cccommodation:
On arrival, please familiarise yourself with emergency procedures for dealing with fire.
- Notices are present in all accommodation.
- Floor plans are present in Apartments and Hotels.

- Please report to Guest Services if the detector is faulty or is particularly sensitive.
Please note: Boiler rooms/storage areas within the accommodation are not suitable for sleeping in. In addition, do not leave items in contact with the boiler.
If you discover a fire:
- Raise the alarm.
- If safe to do so, tackle a small fire with the extinguisher provided. Do not put yourself at risk.
- Evacuate the property and alert neighbours if possible. Do not stop to collect belongings.
- If this has not occurred already, report the fire to Guest Services/Security by the nearest phone. Use the emergency phone number.
- Do not return to the building until authorised to do so.
Public buildings:
Staff in all public buildings receive regular training in fire evacuation procedures and will supervise the evacuation should the fire alarm sound. Designated assembly areas are provided outside all buildings. Please do not be anxious. Rest assured if you are separated from other members of your party at the time of the alarm, they will have been evacuated to an alternative location. We will do our best to reunite you as soon as possible. We advise parties that have been separated to agree a rendezvous point, for example to return to your accommodation. Children’s play areas in particular receive immediate attention when a fire alarm occurs and the evacuation and assembly point is closely supervised.
Parents separated from their children should make their way to the assembly point assigned to the children’s play area as soon as it is safe for them to do so. Alternatively, on being informed of a false alarm please return to the play area to collect your child.
Fire prevention
For your own safety please read the safety instructions located within your accommodation. Smoke alarms are fitted in all accommodation, they are fitted with a hush button to reduce nuisance alarms. If a nuisance alarm occurs, press the test button - this will silence the alarm for ten minutes after which it will reset itself. If more smoke is detected the alarm will operate as normal.
If you have any disability including impaired hearing or sight, please inform Guest Services.
Please remember that you are in a forest environment. In order to minimise the risk of outbreak of fire there are a number of important measures to remember:
- Do not light fires in the forest.
- Dispose of matches and cigarettes carefully.
- You must not bring fireworks or sparklers onto the village. Any guest found to be using their own fireworks will be asked to leave the village.
- Use and dispose of barbecues correctly.
- At certain times of the year the entire forest will be declared a ‘high risk fire’ area. Barbecues and smoking outdoors other than on accommodation patios and in pre-notified areas close to central buildings will not be permitted. Signs will be displayed.
