Bookings may be made by email, telephone, letter, or - when available - via the "Buy Now" buttons on the website.
When the booking is made more than 6 weeks in advance, a non-refundable deposit of £100 per week is due to confirm the reservation. This should be paid as soon as possible. The booking is not confirmed until the deposit is received.
The balance is due 6 weeks before the start of the holiday.
When the booking is made less than 6 weeks in advance, the full amount is due immediately. The booking is not confirmed until the payment is received. If you wish to pay by cheque, we will normally hold the booking for 3 days to allow time for the cheque to arrive in the post, but if the booking is made only a few days in advance we may ask you to use a faster form of payment such as a bank transfer or electonic payment.
Please make cheques payable to Cath Abbott.
Please inform us immediately if you have to cancel your holiday. If you cancel more than 6 weeks before the start of your holiday you will lose the £100 deposit. If you cancel within 6 weeks before the start of your holiday (for any reason including travel problems due to bad weather conditions), your money will be repaid (less the £100 deposit and an additional £20 administration charge) only if we are able to re-let the cottage for the same period. If we are unable to re-let the cottage, you will be liable for the full rent. We recommend that you take out holiday insurance to cover you should unforeseen circumstances, bad weather or travel problems lead you to cancel your holiday.
Bookings by persons under 18 years of age are not accepted.
The cottage is available from 3pm on the day of arrival and should be vacated by 10am on the day of departure.
Bed linen is provided, but not towels or tea-towels.
Normal domestic use of electricity, heating oil and water is included in the price. Note that this does not include electric vehicle charging. If you want to charge an electric vehicle please consult us first.
The visitor is liable for any breakages or damage to the property during their occupation.
Smoking is not permitted in the cottage.
In general we do not accept pets. However, by arrangement, we may be prepared to accept a well behaved dog whose access to the cottage is restricted to the kitchen and which is kept on a lead in the grounds.
