Terms and Conditions
-
Bookings
Once a provisional booking has been agreed a booking form is provided.
This form must be completed by the designated party leader (hereafter
known as 'the Customer'), who must be at least 18 years of age. The completed
form must be returned to us (hereafter known as 'the Owner') by a date
that will be specified at the time of the provisional booking. All future
correspondence will be with the Customer.
Confirmation of your holiday will be sent in writing on receipt of completed
booking form and payments as described in 2. Payments.
The issue of this confirmation constitutes a contract between the Owner
and the Customer, which is governed by English Law.
-
Payments
If the booking is made within ten weeks of departure full payment is required
with the completed booking form. In all other cases a non refundable deposit
of 25%, of the total holiday price, is required, at the time of booking,
and the balance of 75% is due not less than 10 weeks prior to departure.
In the event of full payment not being made by the due time the Owner
reserves the right to cancel the booking. Any deposits will be forfeited
and the Customer will be required to pay cancellation charges in accordance
with 5. Cancellations made by the Customer.
In addition to the final holiday payment a security deposit of £250/$250
is also required. This deposit will be refunded within three working weeks
of your return, less any costs incurred,including but not limited to,
accidental damage to the property and any contents, excess cleaning, loss/non
return of keys, long distance telephone calls.
-
Accommodation
Access to the property is available from 15:00 on the first day of rental
and must be vacated by 10:00 on the agreed departure date. This allows
cleaning and preparation for the next guests to take place. The property
is reserved exclusively for those people named on the booking form and
no other persons are permitted to stay there unless this has been agreed
in writing with the Owner prior to the rental period. The home accommodates
a maximum of 10 people sleeping in five bedrooms. Under no circumstances
will any animals be allowed in the home (except dogs used to aid sight
or hearing). The home is designated non-smoking.
-
Changes
made by the customer
The Owner will endeavour to facilitate any changes requested after the
booking has been confirmed but changes will incur a fee of £15/$15 in
addition to any extra payments that become due. The alteration will be
effective as soon as the Owner sends written confirmation to the Customer
of the change. Any change must involve taking the revised rental period
in the same season as that originally booked. No change can be made within
eight weeks of departure.
-

Cancellations must be made by registered post and signed by the Customer.

Changes/cancellations
made by the Owner
If circumstances beyond the Owner's control should make the rental home
unavailable, then the customer will be advised as soon as possible. Alternative
accommodation of at least comparable standard will be offered if available,
or a refund of monies paid, unless the change/cancellation arises from
reasons of 'Force Majeure'.
-
Complaints
If there are any problems with the rental home or the management company
during the rental period, the customer must inform the management company
immediately. If the matter is not resolved the customer must follow up
the complaint in writing to the Owner within 14 days of the end of the
rental period.
If the problem has not been reported as detailed in this clause then the
Owner cannot accept responsibility for any claims or complaints.
-
Travel
Insurance
It is considered essential for the Customer to hold suitable Holiday and
Travel insurance. It is advisable for this insurance to be in place at
the time the rental period booking is made.
-
Liabilities
The Owner and/or the property management company do not accept any responsibility
or liability for acts of omission of third parties which may prevent or
disrupt a client's booking. The booking contract exists between the owners
and the client and is limited to the rental of the property and associated
services only. The information and descriptions supplied here are believed
to be accurate and offered in good faith. Certain features or facilities
may not be available from time to time due to circumstances beyond our
control for which the Owner and/or the property management company accepts
no liability. In addition no liability can be accepted by the Owner and/or
the property management company for any injury, loss or damage to the
Customer, any member of the Customers Party or any visitor to the rental
home, arising out of or in connection with the use of the rental home
or the pool. The Customer must ensure that all Children are supervised
at all times whilst in or around the pool.
-
Force
Majeure
No liability can be accepted by the Owner where the contract is affected
by 'force majeure'. In the context of these terms and conditions, 'force
majeure' is any event that the Owner or the property management company
could not, even with due care, foresee or avoid. These events include
but are not limited to war, threat of war, riot, civil commotion or strife,
hostilities, industrial dispute, natural disaster, fire, acts of God,
terrorist activity, nuclear disaster, adverse weather, government action,
technical problems with transportation or other events outside the Owners
or the property management companies control.
