Accesible Bungalow – Terms and Conditions of Booking

1. A contract for the hire of the accommodation between you and us arises only when you pay us the requested deposit sum, which in the absence of written agreement to the contrary is 25% of the total cost of the holiday (“the Holiday Cost”). If we believe that a holiday is unsuitable for any particular group, we will decline a booking at our sole discretion.
2. The contract price will, in the absence of written agreement to the contrary, be the Holiday Cost. The balance of the contract price is due and payable from you to us on the day 8 weeks before the date your occupation begins.
3. The contract price for the hire of the accommodation is for the property itself; prices are not per person. There are no discounts available for reduced occupancy, nor will any refunds be given should your party size change for any reason.
4. The contract is for the hire of the property ONLY. We do not provide any care packages or additional services.
5. We recommend that holiday insurance is taken out when making a booking even when payment is made in full.
