• The balance is due 8 weeks prior to arrival along with a refundable security deposit of £100 (to cover damages or extra cleaning). No reminder will be issued.
• Failure to pay the balance of rental charges will result in the owner treating the property as available for rebooking.
• If for any reason beyond our control we are unable to provide the property booked, either before or during the booked period we will refund all monies you have paid in full and the hirer shall have no further claim against us.
• The property let is to be used solely for the purpose of a self-catering holiday let. The booking agreement confers a right to occupy the accommodation for the agreed period only.
