Where a booking is made within 6 weeks of the stay, the full balance is due at the time of booking.

Your accommodation will be available to you from 3.30pm on the day of arrival. A key code will be sent to you the week prior to your booking.
Please be ready to leave the accommodation by 10.00am on the day of departure, to give us adequate time to prepare for subsequent guests. We would be grateful if you could leave the accommodation in a clean and tidy state. Thank you.
Damages & Breakages
Please take care with our properties. You are responsible and liable for any breakages or damages which you cause to the accommodation or its contents. Please report these as soon as they occur. We do not charge for minor breakages, but we may send you an invoice for repair or making good if the damage or breakage is significant.
Security
You are responsible for leaving the accommodation secure when you leave it unoccupied during the period of the let.
Cancellation
If you are compelled to cancel your holiday more than 4 weeks before the start of the holiday your deposit will be refunded. Should cancellation take place less than 4 weeks before the start of the holiday the rental is payable in full. It is therefore recommended that you consider taking out suitable holiday cancellation insurance.

If for any reason the property is not available due to circumstances beyond our control (e.g. by fire damage or some services fault) then we would refund all monies paid by you for the holiday.
Complaints & Breach
We hope that you will have a wonderful holiday, however, if you do have a problem or complaint please contact us straight away so we can try and put it right immediately for you. We cannot accept claims after you have returned home. We reserve the right to terminate the contract without notice or refund for a breach of these ‘terms and conditions’
