BOOKING CONDITIONS
1. The Property known as The Cottage, Frachis
(the Property), is offered for holiday rental subject to
confirmation by Chris and Mary Rose, (the Owners), to
the renter, (the Client). The Client is deemed to be acting
on behalf of all members of the party and that they have read,
understood and agreed all terms and conditions.
2. To reserve the Property, the Client should
complete and sign the Booking Form and return it together with
payment of the initial deposit, being 30% of the total
rent due. Cheques should be made payable to Mr. & Mrs C.H.
Rose. Following the receipt of the Booking Form and deposit,
the Owners will send a confirmation invoice and statement. This
is the formal acceptance of the Booking.
3. The deposit is non-refundable.
4. The balance of the rent, together with security
deposit (see Clause 5 below), is payable not less than eight
weeks before the start of the rental period. If payment is not
received by the due date, the Owners reserve the right to give
notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. Reservations
made within eight weeks of the start of the rental period require
full payment at the time of booking.
5. A security deposit of £100.00 sterling
for every holiday rental period is required in case of, for
example, damage to the Property or its contents. However, the
sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the Client's liability
to the Owners. The Owners will account to the Client for the
security deposit and refund the balance after the end of the
rental period. Any chargeable expenses arising during the rental
period (for example, winter heating, any loss or damage etc.)
will be deducted from the deposit.
6. Subject of clauses 2, 3 and 4 above, in the
event of a non-insurable cancellation, refunds of amounts paid
will be made if the Owners are able to re-let the Property;
and any expenses in so doing will be deducted from the refundable
amount. The Client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive
travel insurance policy (including cancellation cover) and to
have full cover for the party's personal belongings, public
liability etc., since these are not covered by the Owner's insurance.
7. The rental period shall commence at 4.00 p.m.
on the first day and finish at 10 a.m. on the last day. The
owners shall not be obliged to offer accommodation before the
time stated and the Client shall not be entitled to remain in
occupation after the time stated.
8. The maximum number to reside in the Property
must not exceed the stated amount unless the Owners have given
written permission. If permission is given an extra charge may
be made.
9. All person who stay in the Property must be
named on the Booking Form at the time of booking and no other
person may stay in the Property or use its facilities without
the written permission of the Owners. If permission is given
an extra charge may be made.
10. The Client agrees to be a considerate tenant,
and to take good care of the Property and to leave it in a tidy
condition at the end of the rental period. Although a final
clean is included in the rental, the Owners reserve the right
to make a retention from the security of the deposit to cover
additional cleaning costs if the Client leaves the Property
in an unacceptable condition.
11. The Client also agrees not to act in a way,
which would cause disturbance to those residents in neighbouring
properties. The Client is asked to bear in mind that the Property
is situated near working farms.
12. The Client and party acquire no rights whatsoever
over the property excepting occupation as a holiday let for
the rental period booked. The Client shall not sub-let the property.
13. The Client shall report to the Owners without
delay any defects in the Property or breakdowns in any of the
equipment, plant, machinery or appliances in the property or
garden and arrangement for repair and/or replacement will be
made by the Owners as soon as possible.
14. The Owners shall not be liable to the Client,
either jointly or servally:
-
a. for any temporary defect or stoppage
in the supply of public services to the property, nor
in respect of any equipment, plant, machinery or appliance
in the property or garden.
-
b. for any loss, damage or injury which
is the result of adverse weather conditions, riot, war
strikes or other matters beyond the control of the owners.
-
c. for any loss, damage or inconvenience
caused to or suffered by the Client.
-
d. if the Property shall be destroyed or
substantially damaged before the start of the rental period,
and in such event, the Owners shall within seven days
of the notification to the Client, refund to the Client
all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period.
15. Under no circumstances shall the Owner's liability
to the Client exceed the amount paid to the Owners for the rental
period.

where offered, is entirely at the user's risk and no responsibility
can be accepted for injury to a user or visitor and loss or

in any court of competent jurisdiction in England.
