You are entering into a binding contract with me so please read these terms and conditions carefully. By making the booking you have legally accepted the Terms & Conditions of rental below.

Owner : The legal Owner or other persons for the time being entitled to the Property or its rental income.

Customer : the person reserving the Property for the Period.

Property : the property specified in the Booking.

Period : the period of time specified in the Booking for which the Customer is to occupy the Property for holiday purposes.

Formation of Contract : The Contract is formed on receipt of a deposit of at least £100 (may vary see to individual property details) per week or short break along with a confirmed Booking by the Owner. Payment by cheque is deemed received on clearance of such cheque. Provisional bookings will not be kept unless the booking and deposit is received within 5 working days of such provisional bookings.

Payment : If a booking is made, the deposit must be received within 5 working days of the booking. In all of the cases payment of the outstanding balance due under the booking allowing for the deposit paid must be made not less than 28 days before the starting date of the period. The Owner shall not be under any obligation to issue reminders for such balances due. Non payment of such balance in such a manner shall entitle the Owners to treat the reservation as cancelled by the Customer.

Cancellation & Forfeiture : If the Customer cancels a reservation of the property for the period the deposit paid shall be forfeit in any event. The Owner will attempt to re-let the property for the period but no guarantee can be or is given as to the result. If the property is not re-let for the period the full cost of the holiday specified in the booking form shall be due and payable by the Customer including any balance unpaid by the Customer at the date of cancellation. If the property is re-let for the Period the Customer shall be liable to pay the deposit and the costs and expenses of the Owner. Any sum paid by Customer to the Owner in excess of such deposit costs and expenses shall be refundable to the Customer without interest.

During the period : the Customer shall not allow the property to be occupied by more persons than the maximum specified for the property on the Booking. The Owner shall have the right to enter the property at all reasonable times during the day (save in the case of emergency) for the purposes of inspection and repair of the property and its equipment, fittings and contents. The Customer shall occupy the property for holiday purposes and no other.

Customer obligations :
1 To pay for any losses or damage to the property, however cause (reasonable wear and tear excluded), unless the cost of making good such loss or damage can be recovered under any Householders insurance policy maintained by the Owner.
2. To keep the property and all furniture, fittings and effects, in or on the property, in the same state of repair and condition as the commencement of the Period, and to leave the property in the same state of cleanliness and general order in which is was found. The Owner will be entitled to make an additional charge to the Customer if extra cleaning is made necessary as a result of the property being left in a dirty condition upon the Customer's departure.

Departure : The property shall be vacated by no later than 10.30am on the last day of the period. The Customer shall be liable for any loss, claim, cost or expense arising from any failure on the part of the Customer to vacate the property in accordance with this condition.

Discrepancies : whilst the Owner takes all reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy of this website and links, no liability for errors or omissions is accepted. Distances and dimensions are approximate. Facilities may alter or be withdrawn. No liability shall attach to the Owner for the consequences of the acts or omissions of persons or events outside their influences or control. In the event of any discrepancies between these booking conditions and the contents of the website these booking conditions shall prevail.

Complaints : To enable any complaint to be investigated and an action considered, complaints must be taken up with the Owner immediately. If the Customer vacates the property prematurely as a result of any alleged dissatisfaction, or makes any claim upon return home from the property, and has not followed this procedure, then no liability for any subsequent claim will be accepted or correspondence entered into. All complaints made during the Period must be confirmed in writing to the Owner, within 7 days of the last day of the period.

Alterations : A Customer wishing to alter a booking after the contract is formed shall forfeit the deposit paid on booking and any alteration shall be treated as a new booking and contract. Where a Customer has requested services in addition to the basic cost of occupation of the property for the Period and the cost of such services increases between the date of the booking and the start of the Period such increase cost shall be borne and paid by the Customer. If for reasons beyond the control of the Owner the property is not available for the Period the Owner will endeavour to offer alternative accommodation of a similar type and standard and at the same cost as that originally requested by the Customer. If the alternative accommodation is not acceptable to the Customer, or no alternative accommodation can be offered, the Owner will refund in full all monies paid and be under no other liability.

Pets : Pets are permitted in the property only with permission (and are not permitted in Canada). If a pet is taken to a property where pets are excluded, or the stated number/size of pets is exceeded, the Owner is entitled to refuse entry and this will be treated as a cancellation by the Customer.

Amenities : The use of amenities where offered, such as swimming pools, tennis, fishing, golf etc. are entirely at the User's risk and the Owner will not accept responsibility for loss or damage to the Customer's belongings, personal injury or loss of life. Availability of amenities cannot be guaranteed.

Holiday & Personal Insurances : I strongly advise you to take out holiday insurance to cover any eventualities that may result in you having to cancel your holiday. I strongly suggest that you take out your own holiday insurance to cover any losses, accidents, damage, injury, expense or inconvenience whether to person or property which may arise out of or in connection with the period.

Jurisdiction : These terms and conditions shall be read and construed in accordance with the law or England and Wales and the parties hereby submit to such jurisdiction.
