CANCELLATION
Please contact us immediately if you have to cancel your holiday. We will do our best to re-book the house / cottage. However, please appreciate that unlike larger establishments with multiple rooms, the house / cottage is a boutique accommodation for which a cancellation represents 100% loss of occupancy, which is very difficult to recover at short notice.
Payment of the deposit accepts the following conditions:
The deposit is non-refundable.
For cancellations made within 14 days of the arrival a fee of 50% of the total accommodation cost will apply (unless we are able to re-book to a similar value).
For cancellations made within 7 days of the arrival a fee of 100% of the total accommodation cost will apply (unless we are able to re-book to a similar value).
Failure to arrive on the due date or cancelled days, change in number of guests, after check in, will be charged at 100%.
For a genuinely unavoidable change in dates, the deposit will happily be transferred to the new dates – this is subject to our ability to re-book, availability for the new dates and is valid for a period of three months from the original booking date.
HOLIDAY CANCELLATION INSURANCE
We STRONGLY recommend that you obtain appropriate holiday cancellation insurance, as events like transport or illness problems can occur, and may result in the total loss of the cost of your holiday. Please note our cancellation policy in the clause above.
CARE OF THE HOUSE AND PERSONAL BELONGINGS AND RIGHT OF ACCESS
Guests are asked to respect the house / cottage as they would their own home, and leave it clean and tidy when vacating. Excessive food left in the refrigerator, and/or dirty dishes will incur an additional cleaning fee. Excessive soiling of linen or towels may incur a replacement fee.
Guests take full responsibility for all charges incurred including payment for any losses or damage to the house / cottage property whilst a guest at the house / cottage. Please report all breakages or damage to us immediately; we may have only a short period of time between guests, so if there is any damage or breakages we will need to know as soon as it occurs.
While all care is taken, we cannot accept responsibility for your personal belongings or valuables left in the house / cottage or your vehicle.
We reserve the right to enter the house / cottage, without prior notice if special circumstances or emergencies arise.
