Pool/spa heating – The heater is an electrical/mechanical device, as with any mechanical device it can be subject to electrical/mechanical failure. In such an event, every effort will be made to repair the heater. If the guest has paid for pool/ spa heat, then we shall refund only the days you are without pool/spa heat. We cannot and will not refund for anything that has not been paid for. Pool/spa heating is also subject to weather conditions, the colder the weather the longer the heater will take to warm up the pool/spa each day. If guests request pool/spa heat to be turned on after their arrival they must be aware that it will take time for the pool/spa to heat up but payment is required from commencement. The blanket should be used to cover pool when not in use, especially at night to help to retain the heat. Guests are not permitted to touch the pool/spa heater controls, any sign of tampering will result in the pool heat being turned off and you will forfeit your payment. Any problems with pool/spa heating should be reported to the management company immediately. Guests use of the spa and pool at their own risk. The pool is cleaned and chemically balanced regularly for your safety and comfort. On rare occasions it may be necessary to add extra chemicals to maintain the correct state, in which case you may be advised to remain out of the pool for the number of hours advised by the pool cleaning company’s agent.
No liability is accepted by the Owner for loss of mains services or failure of appliances, nor for the consequences or omissions of persons who may control supply of mains services, not for any actions taken in the vicinity of the property by an authority over which the Owner has no control. Construction work may take place in the vicinity of the property in the first half of 2004. Guests should establish the status of such works via the Owners prior to booking.
The Owner does not accept any liability for injury, damage or loss caused by any reason or for any claim made as a consequence of this booking and the subsequent occupancy. The Guest is responsible for taking out adequate insurance to cover all risks. This waiver also applies to any persons visiting the property as guests of the Guest(s).
The Owner does not accept liability for injury, damage or loss caused, or for any claim made by a third party as a result of actions by the Guest(s) and other persons occupying the property during the period of the let.
