BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS

Please read these Terms & Conditions carefully before completing your booking.

By paying your deposit, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. These form the basis of a legally binding contract between you (“the Guest”) and the property owner (“the Host”).

A booking is confirmed only upon receipt of the required deposit and written confirmation from the Host. Until this point, no contract exists, and the dates are not guaranteed.

1.2 Deposit

A non-refundable deposit of 30% of the total booking cost is required at the time of booking to secure your dates. {Currently £225}

1.3 Balance Payment

The remaining balance {currently £525} is due no later than 4 weeks before your arrival date. A payment reminder will be sent in advance. Failure to pay by this date may result in the booking being cancelled and the deposit forfeited.

Where a booking is made within 6 weeks of the arrival date, the full amount {£750} is payable at the time of booking.

All cancellations must be made in writing (email is acceptable). The following charges apply based on the notice given before your arrival date:

2.2 Cancellation by the Host

In exceptional circumstances (including but not limited to structural damage, flooding, fire, or other events beyond our control), the Host reserves the right to cancel a booking.
