Connect to Hipcamp

We have a 2 way ical connection to Hipcamp

Please note: iCal will send basic availability up to your channel, and then basic booking data will be pushed back to Anytime Booking. We check all iCals every 15 minutes.

You may wish to edit each booking from Hipcamp once imported into the system, to ensure your required information is set against the booking. We only import the booked dates and booking reference number.

Please note:

We read cancellations and amendments automatically on these feeds. Please read more about this function here.

 

Please find below full instructions on how to sync your availability with Hipcamp.
