Booking Terms and Conditions

Contract of Hire: The hiring contract shall be between the Clients and the Owners of the property. It shall be deemed to be made subject to these Conditions of Hire. The Contract of Hire is not effective until the Clients receive a written confirmation of booking.
Initial Payment: Bookings will be confirmed upon receipt of the required deposit payment of £100 and the signed booking form. However, if the booking is made within two months of the holiday commencement date, the full amount of rental and Security Deposit will be required on booking.
Security Deposit: A returnable deposit of £200 is required to be paid with the balance of the rental. This is to be held as security against return of keys, inventory damage, excess cleaning costs, etc. The Management Company will return this deposit to the Clients subject to a satisfactory inspection.
Balance Payment: The balance of the hire costs will be due 8 weeks before the holiday commencement date. The Owner reserves the right to cancel a holiday where full payment has not been received six weeks prior to the holiday commencement date. Bookings made within two months of departure require FULL prepayment to be made.
Confirmation of Booking: Once a confirmation has been issued, the Client is responsible for the total price of the property rental as shown on the confirmation. Signing of the Booking Form constitutes acceptance of these Terms and Conditions by the Client.
Cancellations: Provided the Owner receives written notice of cancellation not less than 10 weeks before the holiday commencement date, the Client will not be required to pay the full balance; the amount of the deposit however, will be forfeited. All cancellations must be notified in writing at the earliest opportunity.

More than 10 weeks prior to departure, deposit only.
Between 8-10 weeks prior to departure, 50% of rental.
