1) To make your initial reservation just contact The Owners as shown on the page "Contact Us". As long as your required dates are available your reservation will be held for up to one week to allow you to make ferry reservations. If you experience any difficulty or need to change the dates within that one week option period, please contact The Owners as soon as possible. During that week's option period, we will email a booking form to you.
2) On or before the one week option period has expired you will need to pay a deposit of 30% of the total rental cost to The Owners. We accept cheques or direct funds transfers; for the latter, we will provide our bank details on request. Please make cheques payable to N M Roberts. This deposit will not be refundable in the event of cancellation unless The Owners are able to re-let the property for the dates that you had booked.
3) Six weeks before your intended stay at The Property you will need to pay the 70% balance of your rental price and a £120 security deposit (the security deposit will be refunded to you shortly after your return once our cleaner / key holder has confirmed that all is well). The security deposit will be used in full or in part to cover any excessive cleaning costs or breakages that cannot be termed as normal wear and tear in the opinion of The Owners (see also para 6 and 8 below). Late payment may result in the cancellation of your reservation with loss of deposit. Again payment can only be accepted by bank transfer or by cheque made payable to N M Roberts. In the event of a late booking, we may require payment in full by direct bank transfer.
