Bookings
A booking deposit of 25% is payable within 1 days of the provisional booking being taken. The booking is taken on a provisional basis until the deposit has been paid in full and funds cleared through the banking system (where appropriate). The booking then becomes confirmed. Until the booking is confirmed, it can be cancelled at any time without prior notice.
The balance of the rental charge is payable not less than 6 weeks prior to the start of the holiday. Failure to pay the deposit or balance in full by the due dates will constitute a cancellation of the holiday by the holidaymaker. Please be sure to note the due dates of these payments as reminders are not routinely issued.
Bookings made less than 6 weeks prior to the arrival date must be paid in full at the time of booking.
Cancellation by the Holidaymaker
Cancellation of the booking by the holidaymaker should be made in writing and emailed.
In the event of a cancellation, then a cancellation charge is made depending on the number of days prior to the start date of the holiday that the cancellation notice is received according to the table below
| Days prior to start of holiday that notice of cancellation is received | Cancellation Charge |
| 0-7 days | 75% of total cost |
| 8-28 days | 50% of total cost |
| 29-42 days | 25% of total cost |
| 43 days + | 10% of monies paid |
We strongly recommend you take out holiday cancellation insurance.
The shortening of a reservation prior to, or during, your stay will not entitle you to any refund from the property owner.

Any liability resulting from cancellation of your booking by the owners for any reason, is strictly limited to the total sum paid to us by you and shall not exceed the total cost of the booking in any eventuality.

The maximum number of people entitled to stay at this property is stated on the detail page and furthermore, only those people named on the booking form are entitled to stay. If it is found that more people than agreed are using the property, this will be considered a breach of contract and the holidaymaker and his/her party will be asked to leave immediately without any refund. Sub letting or assignation of the let is prohibited.
Pets
2 Small pets are allowed in the property subject to the property owner’s agreement. All pets must be house trained and the type of pet must not exceed what was agreed at the time of booking, otherwise a breach of contract will be deemed to have taken place.

Arrival and Departure Time
Every effort will be made to have the property available from 16:00 on the day of arrival. The property must be vacated by 10:00 on the day of departure.

The property owner takes no responsibility for the personal possessions of the holidaymaker or the holidaymaker’s party. Vehicles and possessions are left entirely at the risk of the holidaymaker.
Children must be supervised at all times.
Cleaning
We would like to think the holidaymaker and party would treat the property as they would their own home and at the end of the holiday the property is left in a clean and tidy condition. The property owner retains the right to make an additional charge for cleaning should the property not be left in a similar condition to the way it was found at the start of the holiday.
Breakages
The holidaymaker should make every effort to keep the property, fixtures and fittings and all contents in the same state of repair and condition as at the start of the holiday. Any accidental dame or breakages should be reported to the property owner (or their representative) prior to departure. The property owner retains the right to make an additional charge for damage and breakages although it should be noted that minor breakages and reasonable wear and tear (in the opinion of the property owner) will not be charged for.
Complaints
Every endeavour is made to ensure your stay with us is memorable for all the right reasons. However, we do recognise that from to time things do go wrong. In these circumstances, it is the responsibility of the holidaymaker to make any such problem known to the property owner (or their representative) immediately it becomes apparent, thereby giving the property owner the opportunity to correct the situation. Unless this procedure is followed, no subsequent claim will be entertained.
The property owner will make every endeavour to rectify any identified problems as soon as is reasonably possible.
