Terms and Conditions

We have tried to avoid unnecessary 'rules and regulations'. The following standard terms and conditions set out the key issues and responsibilities and form the basis of all villa rentals. They are straightforward and easy to follow but should you have any query please do not hesitate to contact us and we will clarify or explain. A booking between Mr. Barry & Mrs. Anita Tadd (the Owners) and the person(s) making the booking (the Client(s)), is valid only after the deposit has been paid to the Owners, and the booking has been confirmed in writing to the Client(s) by the Owners. A deposit of £100 is payable at the time of booking. By paying the deposit the Client(s) accept(s) these conditions. The rental charge plus any pre-booked extras is payable no less than 8 weeks prior to the date of commencement of the rental period or with the booking if less than 8 weeks to commencement date. The initial deposit is refunded 14 days after departure subject to satisfactory inspection of the property by the management company.

This agreement shall terminate on the happening of any one of the following events: a) The Client(s) failing to pay the balance within the time stated above. b) The property, through no fault of the owners becoming unfit for letting as a holiday home prior to the commencement date.
