Terms & Conditions and Tenants Obligations

Please read carefully before completing your booking form.  Signing and dating of the booking form confirms your acceptance of all of the terms and conditions that have been put before you.

DEPOSIT
A deposit of 25% of the full rental charge is required to confirm the booking.  Reservations are not confirmed until receipt of the deposit and funds have been cleared.

BALANCE OF RENTAL FEE
The balance becomes due 4 weeks before your arrival date at Sea Holly Cottage.  If the balance has not been paid by this time, and communication has not been received then we reserve the right to re-let the cottage.  Deposits will be forfeited by the hirer of Sea Holly Cottage if communication or prior written agreement of late payment has not been received.

CANCELLATION
If you need to cancel your holiday please advise us asap in writing.  We will endeavour to re-let the property.  If Sea Holly Cottage is re-let then all monies paid will be refunded less £50 to cover re-letting costs and administration.  If the cottage is not re-let, however, then we will require the balance of the total rental fee.  We will always endeavour, although not guarantee, to re-let the property.

ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE
Sea Holly Cottage will be available to you from 3pm on the first day of your holiday and we require that you vacate the cottage by 10.30am on your departure day.  Lettings usually run from Saturday to Saturday. Any variations to this will have to have been made in writing and agreed before your rental commences.

DAMAGE DEPOSIT
The damage deposit is payable when your balance is due, four weeks before your holiday commences.  It is fully refundable after your holiday has ended if no damage to the property or the contents has been sustained, the property is left tidy and the cleaning managers have access to the property from 10.30am on the day of departure to carry out their duties.

GUEST RESPONSIBILITIES DURING YOUR STAY
It is your responsibility to put out the rubbish on Thursday evenings for collection on Friday mornings.  It is also your responsibility if you have used the fire, BBQ or chimnea, to leave them in a clean state and ready for use by the next guest. Any wood or firelighters used should be replaced.  If for any reason these responsibilities are not carried out during your stay then unfortunately a £20 surcharge for each item will be deducted from your damage deposit.

LINEN & CLEANING
Included in the rental fee is bed linen, bath towels, hand towels and tea towels.  By prior arrangement, cot linen can also be provided.  On arrival all beds will be made up and towels made available for your use.  At the end of your stay, please leave all linen and towels in the cottage.

PETS
Well-behaved pets are welcome at Sea Holly Cottage although we insist that all animals are kept downstairs (a stairgate is provided for your use).  Please also ensure that calls of nature are not to be done in the garden.

PAYPHONE AND WIFI
By signing the booking form you agree to abide by the BT Broadband Standard Terms and Conditions including their Fair User Policy.  Please see BT Website for more details.
