BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1.
The
gites at the above address are offered for holiday rental subject to written
confirmation from the Owners. Formal confirmation of the booking will be sent
to the Client together with a statement showing the outstanding balance, on
receipt of a completed Booking Form and a non-refundable deposit of £100 per week booked.
2.
The
balance of the rental, plus a Security/cleaning Deposit of £100, is payable not less than 8 weeks before
the start of the rental period. The Client is advised that at least ten days should be
allowed for the post to arrive in France from England. If payment is not received by the due
date, the Owners reserve the right to consider the booking cancelled but will
try to contact the Client by phone or email before cancelling. In the event of cancellation, the
Owners will try to re-let the property, but the Client will remain liable to pay
the balance of the rent. If the property is re-let, the Owners will refund any
payment already made by the Client other than the non-refundable £100
deposit and any expenses such as advertising involved in the re-letting.
Reservations made within eight weeks of the start of the rental period require
full payment at the time of booking.

Dishonoured
cheques automatically cancel the reservation. The Owners will advise the Client if this happens and the
Client will be liable for all losses and expenses incurred by the Owners.
4.
Cheques
will only be accepted in the name of the Client whose name appears on the
Booking Form. This is to avoid
confusion. All cheques should be
made payable to Mrs. C. Barnes
5.
A
Security/Cleaning Deposit of £100 is required for each rental
period, in case of possible damage
to the property or its contents.
However, this sum will not limit the Client’s liability to the

the Client for the Security/cleaning Deposit and will refund any balance due
within four weeks of the end of the rental period by cheque drawn on the
Owners’ bank account.

written permission. Regretfully,
