Booking Conditions

1. The property may be offered for holiday rental subject to confirmation by the managers to the renter (‘the client’).
2. To reserve the property, the client should complete and sign the booking form and return it together with payment of the initial deposit. Please note that any monies paid may not be refunded in the event of cancellation. The client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive travel insurance policy including cancellation cover and to have full cover for the party’s personal belongings and public liability etc since these are not covered by the owners insurance. The deposit constitutes part of the total rental fee. Bed linen, bath and hand towels, Electricity, cooking gas, hot and cold water are always included. Following receipt of the booking form and deposit, the managers will send a confirmation statement. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.
3. The balance of the rental is due not less than 60 days before the start of the rental period. If payment is not received by the due date the managers reserve the right to give notice in writing that the reservation may be cancelled and the deposit retained by the managers. Reservations made within 70 days of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking. In cases where the rental period commences within one month of booking we require notification of payment within 48hrs of receipt of the booking form.
4. A  security deposit is not required in the case of single gite bookings but may be charged in the case of multiple gite bookings. The managers reserve the right to claim costs incurred for the replacement of breakages or repair of damage to the property. Note that the amount of the deposit may vary and in any case shall not limit the clients' liability to the owner.
5. Any chargeable expenses arising during the rental period e.g. linen renewal, breakfast pack, EV charging costs or cleaning service, must be settled locally with the managers on the day before departure.
