Terms & Conditions
Booking deposit
A non-returnable deposit of 25% is required to confirm your booking. Upon
receipt of this, a written confirmation is sent to you. Eight weeks prior
to your arrival, the final invoice, and directions of how to find us,
will be sent to you. The final balance is due within 14 days of invoice
date and we reserve the right to cancel any booking when payment is not
received on due date.
Key and Condition deposit
There is a £100.00 ‘Key and Condition’ deposit (£200.00 for Orchard Lodge) payable with the balance of the rental
on a separate cheque, which is not banked, and destroyed after the cottage
has been cleaned. Should the cottage take longer to clean than the allocated
time, or breakages or damages to the property have occurred, we will bank
the cheque and deduct the cost. The balance of the cheque will be sent
back to you. The hirer is responsible to take all reasonable care of the
property and is expected to leave the cottage clean and tidy and in the
same condition as found.
Tariff
The prices quoted in the tariff are inclusive of gas, electricity, bed
linen, towels, cots, high chairs and stair gates when requested. We do
not provide swimming pool towels or cot bedding. There are communal laundry
facilities for which a nominal charge is made. Your telephone is metered
and is charged at the end of your stay. Whilst the tariff is up-to-date
when it is sent to you, please check current availability before sending
off your booking form. Telephone reservations are held for seven days
pending receipt of a deposit.
Arrival and Departure
Cottages are let from 3.00pm on arrival day to 10.00am on departure day.
You and your guests are requested to vacate the cottages promptly on departure
day.
Swimming Pool/Hot Tub and Safety
Our Swimming Pool/Hot Tub is unsupervised; by signing this form you acknowledge
and abide by the Flear Farm Swimming Pool Safety Code. It is the parent
or guardians responsibility to supervise the safety and good conduct of
children at all times whilst on the property. Usage of all of the facilities
at Flear is entirely at your own risk.
Short Breaks
During the low season we offer short breaks. Stays of three or four nights
are charged at one-sixth of the weekly rate per night. Longer stays are
charged pro rata. Short Breaks are paid in full when booking.
Z Beds
In certain circumstances
and with strict arrangement with the management Z beds are available at
a charge of £50.00.
Cancellation
In the event of a cancellation the hirer must advise us at the earliest
opportunity, where upon we will, without prejudice to our right to the
balance of the cost in full, use our best endeavours to re-let. If re-letting
is achieved, the deposit less administration costs will be returned. To
avoid cancellation losses we recommend the hirer takes out Holiday Cancellation
Insurance.
