Booking conditions

1. Website and accuracy

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the website and adverts are accurate, we cannot be held responsible for changes or matters outside our control. All information is given in good faith, but no warranties are made regarding information provided, either written or oral. We have no control over external websites.

2. Booking, payment and cancellation

Bookings can be made through the website, providing a non-refundable deposit of €100 - €200 per stay (double for stays of 14 nights or more), or if you are booking less than 8 weeks before arrival, the full price. Upon booking you will receive a confirmation email also requesting further information including the number of guests and any options chosen.

Your accommodation will be prepared for the number of guests booked. Please inform us of any changes to the number of guests and we will accommodate you if possible. Please note that the number of persons per accommodation cannot be exceeded unless children's cots are required for infants.

The final payment is due 8 weeks before your holiday start date. A reminder email will be sent to you 10 weeks before your holiday start date. There is no cancellation charge if made more than 8 weeks from your holiday start date. There will be no refund within 8 weeks before arrival unless we are able to rebook the accommodation on the same dates at the same price. If the full amount is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to cancel the booking.

It is recommended that you take out insurance to protect the risk of cancellation from the time of booking and for medical, baggage cover etc. Should a gîte be unavailable on the day stated, due to unforeseen circumstances, every attempt will be made to relocate the guests. If this is not possible, all rent monies will be refunded without question, but no further liability will fall upon the owners.

We will do everything possible to deal with any issues both quickly and effectively. We retain the right to enter the property at any reasonable time to deal with any issues and to carry out any repairs deemed necessary to the property or equipment. Whilst every possible effort will be made to maintain the pool and household equipment in good order for the enjoyment of our guests, we cannot accept liability in the event of any unforeseen circumstance but would ask you to bear with us whilst we attempt to rectify the problem.
