Can I arrive a day late?

I want to take my family to France for a few days next month, I've found a good deal thru Siblu,but we can only go from the Sunday to thurs, but the booking is for a week, Saturday to Saturday,(using tesco vouchers this works out cheaper than 4 day bookings with other companies) can I arrive on the sunday if the holiday starts Saturday? As we will need to check in,get passes ect.
I know a can leave when I want, but can I arrive a day late?
Thanks everyone in advance

    There's no need to ring them. The answer to your question may be found on their website, ie it depends what time on Sunday...
    You must claim your accommodation by 10am on the day after your holiday is due to start, or we will treat your booking as cancelled with no refund given.

    Perhaps better not to get in touch beforehand and just ring them on Saturday saying you've been delayed 24 hours due to 'unforeseen circumstances beyond your control'?


    EDIT: There's more detail in your booking T&Cs (why haven't you read them?)...
    If you have not arrived by 10am on the morning after your holiday was due to commence on any particular village or contacted the village concerned to confi rm when you will arrive, we will assume that the holiday is cancelled and the total cost and the insurance premium will be forfeited.

    Thanks for all your replies, I could easily get there before 10 on Sunday, but I think I will do as suggested and call them on the Saturday and say we are delayed Incase we are later, traffic ect.

    Bad I know and I will get stung one day but I never read the terms and conditions on these holidays. :eek:

    Thank you everyone tho, will have happy kiddies now :D
