GUEST CONTRACT
The Agreement:
The conditions of rental are between you "the guest" and "us" or "we" the property owners. "The property" is the property which you have agreed to rent from us for x days on the dates detailed in your booking. The property can also be referred to as "Accommodation" "Apartment" This contract is deemed to have been made once the guest has paid in full, and acknowledged and accepted this contract electronically at time of purchase/booking. Depending on booking platform used this guest contract may need to be signed on arrival to the apartment.
Booking:
The guest must be over 18 years at the time of booking.
The guest who makes a booking will be responsible for all persons staying in the property and should ensure that they are aware of these terms & conditions.
The owner reserves the right to decline any booking or refuse to hand over a key to any person who has not accepted and signed this guest contract.
Payment:
Payment can be made online at time of booking. No keys or entry to the property is permitted unless payment in full is made and this contract agreed to.
Additional Charges:
It is expected that the accommodation is handed back over to us (the owner) at the end of this rental agreement in the same way it was presented to you (the guest) at the start of this rental agreement (Excluding normal wear and tear). If this is not the case then reasonable additional charges can be charged by us to you to bring the property back up to standard. In extreme circumstances these charges can also include loss of earning or rental if we are forced to cancel subsequent bookings due to property damage. Charges can be levied by us for the following:
Damage to the property or equipment, fixtures and fittings within the accommodation also including white goods, appliances and furniture.

Please report any damage or breakages to us as soon as they occur. Once the property has been inspected and cleaned at the end of the agreement if any damage described above is noted you will be contacted in writing (email included) where a bill will be sent describing the additional charge. From receiving this you will have 7 days to pay in full. Failure to pay will result in legal proceedings.
Cleaning:
Guests are responsible for leaving the accommodation in good order and in a clean condition; otherwise an additional deep cleaning charge will be levied as described in the additional charges section of this contract. Please note that the convention for UK holiday lets differs from hotels in that guests are expected to leave the property in a similar state to which they find it (reasonable cleaning excepted). Please abide by this convention so we can continue to provide good value and quality accommodation for all our guests.
Number of People Using the Accommodation:
The owners permit the guest and members of the guest's party (but no one else) to occupy the property for holiday or business purposes only. No more than the maximum number of persons stated on the property details page, may occupy a property unless by prior written agreement with the owner.
Illegal Activities:
No illegal activities are to take place within or surrounding the property at any time, evidence, suspicion or reports of such will result in instant discharge from the property and the local authorities being informed. No refund will be given.
Arrival/Departure:
The property is available for occupation from 3.00 pm on the first day of the booking and must be vacated by 10.00 am on the last day. Please ensure you are prompt on exit as our staff have a limited time to turn the apartment round for the next guests. If you wish to stay until midday on your departure day then this must be pre-arranged and an extra charge paid, failing this the non pre-arranged late charge will apply. If you would like to arrange an early check in at midday this needs to be pre-arranged and an extra charge will need to be paid before keys will be handed over. Early check in and late check out may not always be possible.
Cancellation policy or Changes by the Guest:
Once the accommodation is booked the guest has entered into a legally binding contract. If the guest cancels, for whatever reason (including medical and weather related) the following charges apply:
-
Up to 5 days prior to stay you are liable for the full rental price.
Cancellations must be notified in writing (including by email) to the owner as soon as possible.

We highly recommend guest(s) take out a holiday insurance policy (which includes cancellation insurance covering sickness and unavoidable reasons for cancellation) prior to their stay. We do not provide any holiday/travel insurance.
Pets:
Some of our guests and staff are allergic to animal hair, we therefore do not accept pets into any of our accommodation at any time.
