- The property known as ’Le Stang’ is offered for rental subject to confirmation by Kenneth Hobbs or Stephen Bryan (’the owners’) to the renter (’the client’).
- To reserve the ’property’ the client should complete and sign the booking form and return it, together with payment of the initial non-refundable deposit (£150), within seven days. Following receipt of the booking form and deposit the owner will send a confirmation invoice. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.
- The balance of the rent together with the security deposit (see clause 5) is payable not less than eight (8) weeks before the start of rental period. If payment is not received by due date, the owner reserves the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. The client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent unless the owner is able to re-let the ’property’. In this event, clause 6 of these booking conditions will apply. Reservations made within eight weeks of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking.
- Any chargeable expenses arising during the rental period (i.e. linen hire, maid service etc.) should be settled locally in Euros with the owner or a representative before departure.
- A security deposit of £150.00 sterling, per rental period is required in case of, for example, damage to the property and its contents. However, the sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the clients’ liability to the owner. The owner will account to the client for the security deposit and refund the full amount or the balance, whichever is applicable, within two weeks of the end of the rental period.
- Subject to clause 2 and 3 above, in the event of cancellation, refunds of amounts paid will be made if the owner is able to re-let the ’property’ and any expenses or losses incurred in so doing will be deducted from the refundable amount.
The client is strongly recommended to arrange comprehensive travel insurance, including cancellation cover for party’s personal belongings, public liability etc., since these are not covered by the owners insurance. - The rental period shall commence at 4.00pm on the first day, and finish at 10.00am on the last day. The owner shall not be obliged to offer the accommodation before the time stated and the client shall not be entitled to remain in the property after the time stated.
- The maximum number to reside in the ’property’ must not exceed the agreed number unless the owner has given written permission.
- The client agrees to be a considerate tenant and to take good care of the ’property’ and leave it in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period. The owner reserves the right to make a retention from the security deposit to cover additional cleaning costs if the client leaves the ’property’ in an unacceptable condition. The client also agrees not to act in any way which would cause a disturbance to those resident in nearby properties.
- The client shall report to the owner or representative without delay any breakdown in equipment, plant machinery or appliances in the ’property or garden’ and arrangements for repair or replacement will be made as soon as possible.
- The owner shall not be liable to the client for:
a) Any temporary defect or stoppage in the supply of public services to the ’property’ nor in any equipment, plant machinery or appliance in the ’property, garden or swimming pool’. b) Any loss, damage or inconvenience which is a result of adverse weather conditions, riot, war, strikes or other matters beyond the control of the owner. c) Any loss, damage or inconvenience caused to or suffered by the client if the ’property’ shall be substantially damaged or destroyed before the start of the rental period. In any such event, the owner shall, within seven days of notification to the client, refund all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period. - Under no circumstances shall the Owner’s liability to the Client exceed the amount paid to the Owner for the rental period.
This contract shall be governed by English law in every particular including formation and interpretation and shall be deemed to have been made in England. Any proceedings arising out of or in connection with this contract may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in England.
