DAMAGES
& BREAKAGES
Please
take care whilst you are staying in Brackenwood. You are responsible and liable for any damages or breakages, to both
the accommodation and its contents during your stay. Any incidents must be reported as and if they occur. Minor
breakages are not normally charged for, but you will be sent an invoice for repair and making good or replacement if the damage
or breakage is more significant, and there may make an additional charge of £15 if you did not report any incident.
DEPOSITSA non-refundable reservation deposit
of £150 per week or short break is payable at the time of booking. Additionally a security deposit of £100
is payable with the balance payment of your booking. You will be due a refund of this security deposit amount one week
after your departure and we will account to you for any deductions made if necessary against damages, breakages and additional
cleaning costs.
CANCELLATION & INSURANCE
Whilst it is not a condition of your booking to have insurance
we do strongly recommend it and would suggest that you also check that your policy includes cancellation cover, as once a
booking has been made you are liable for the full cost of the holiday and your weekly or short break booking deposit is not
refundable under any circumstances.
By making your booking, our agreement is a legal contract
and your booking deposit is non-refundable. If you cannot take your holiday and the booking cannot be re-let, you are
still liable to pay for the booking in full, even if we have not yet received your balance. If we do succeed in re-letting
the booking, you are no longer liable for the balance, or we will refund it to you if you have already paid it, less an additional
10% administration fee of the period tariff provided your cancellation was received in writing more than 6 weeks before your
planned arrival date. Where your cancellation letter is received less than 6 weeks before your planned arrival date
this administration fee increases to 15%.
NON
AVAILABILITY OF ACCOMMODATION
We would
only cancel your holiday if your accommodation was unavailable for reasons beyond our control. We would refund all monies
paid by you for the holiday. Our liability would not extend beyond this refund.
LIABILITY
We do not accept any liability for any
damage, loss or injury to any member of your party or any vehicle or possessions, unless proven to be caused by a negligent
act by ourselves or our employees or contractors whilst acting in the course of employment.
SMOKING
Smoking is not permitted in the house.
Please also remember that not all Visitors smoke, so perhaps additional attention needs to be made outside too before your
departure - to clean up after yourself!
COMPLAINTS
In the unlikely event that something
should not be to your satisfaction on your arrival please do contact us immediately and we shall endeavour to put matters
right as quickly as possible. Additional cleaning or minor repairs, for example, can usually be arranged without delay.
Full detail on how to make contact during your stay will be supplied in the property information file. We may not be
able to resolve a problem to your satisfaction if you tell us of it only on or after your departure. No such matters
can be dealt with after completion of the rental period.
ARRIVAL
Brackenwood will be available to you
from 3pm on the day of your arrival. We may not be able to accommodate you if you arrive earlier than the agreed time
as we will be busy preparing the house for you.
DEPARTURE
Your let period finishes at 10am on
the day of your departure. The property is thoroughly inspected between Visitors but there is only a limited time available
for this and we do ask you please to leave your holiday home in a clean and welcoming condition for the next guests.
Failure to do so could result in additional charges.
