BOOKINGS AND DEPOSITS
If we are able to accommodate you, a non-refundable deposit of 20% is required to confirm your booking. Balance of payment is due 8 weeks before your stay. We will issue an email or postal* reminder 2 months prior to your stay along with all other details you will need to plan your trip. If your stay is within 8 weeks of booking then payment in full is required at time of booking.
Upon payment of the deposit and subject to the acceptance of the booking, the applicant becomes liable for the balance of the rent for the full period of the letting.
You must be over 18 at the time of booking. By paying a deposit you are agreeing to these Terms and Conditions.
*We do not correspond by post unless specifically asked to do so.
CANCELLATIONS
Cancellation by YOU – If you have to cancel your holiday, for whatever reason, you must contact us immediately. If you cancel your holiday more than 8 calendar weeks before your check-in day we will retain the booking deposit but return any balances paid. If you cancel your holiday within 8 weeks of the check-in date the final balance is nonrefundable. Should we find it possible to re-let the date then we will refund your payment, less the deposit. We recommend that guests take out their own insurance to cover this eventuality.
Cancellation by US – Once we have sent you a confirmation of booking we will do our very best not to have to change or cancel your holiday. We promise to do all we can to avoid this but we MUST reserve the right to do so.
THE PARTY
The property must only be occupied by the party on the booking form which will be sent to you to be completed upon confirming your booking. We must be advised at the time of booking if the party of the visitor will be comprised of an all male or all female group. If changes are to be made to the members of the party occupying the property, these changes must be agreed with us before the holiday commences.
Your holiday group must not exceed the maximum number of 7 persons (+ babies sleeping in cots. We can provide one cot on request) – except in certain very limited circumstances and agreed in writing by us. If you do we can refuse you access to the property or ask you to leave. This will deem the holiday to have been cancelled by you and you will not be entitled to any refund.
