TERMS AND CONDITIONS

We are very keen to make your stay as pleasant as possible and try to be as accommodating as we can to meet your individual requests. However we do not accept dogs and there are no fireworks allowed. We ask you to please be considerate of the people who live in the village as regards the volume of any music. No loud music should be played after midnight.

In the event of cancellation or should you for any reason have to leave early, we will do our best to re-let The Old Rectory. If we are successful we will refund your deposit less a fifty pounds administration charge. Please note that is is imperative that the balance of the payment reaches us at least eight weeks before the start of your holiday, failure to comply with this condition may be taken as a cancellation. Should we be unable to re-let (through short notice cancellation or similar) you are liable for the full fee and therefore, we strongly recommend that you take out low cost cancellation insurance (available from any High Street insurance broker) for peace of mind.

We provide linen such as sheets, duvets and covers but not towels. We also undertake general cleaning after your stay but ask that the house is left in more or less the same state as when you arrived and the crockery cleaned. There is a dishwasher in the kitchen. We do not provide logs for the open fires but can advise on the local stockist who will also deliver.

An additional two hundred pounds deposit by cheque drawn on a UK bank is required against damages. This will only be cashed if needed and if not will be torn up at the end of your holiday. In the unlikely event of any damage being done or the property being left in an unsatisfactory condition, the owners reserve the right to impose a reasonable charge to return the property to the condition it was in at the beginning of the let. This charge will be taken from the deposit for damages.

We also accept no liability for either loss or damage to personal effects or for personal accident or injury. We advise you to take out your own insurance to cover these.

We reserve the right to refuse any booking and to cancel any booking already made if the property becomes, for reasons beyond our control, unavailable, subject to our refunding any sums you have paid. We will not be liable for any further obligations or claims by the client.

Weekend lets start at 4 p.m. on Friday. Weekly lets run from Friday 4 p.m. to 10 a.m. on the following Friday. Mid week or Monday to Friday lets by arrangement.

For single room supplement add 50% (discretionary)

A minimum booking for eighteen people is required for weekends and high period. At other times the minimum is fourteen apart from Christmas and New Year when the minimum is twenty.
