CARP FRANCE La Maison des Etangs Poumeroux 16 310 Massignac France Tel: 0033 (0)5 45 61 31 60. E-mail: info@carpfrance.com **************************** BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS **************************** The booking will be confirmed in writing, following receipt of a signed booking form and deposit from the client. This will constitute a formal acceptance of the booking. The deposit is £200.00 per week (non-refundable). It should be received within five days of reserving and the balance no less than eight weeks prior to day of arrival. If payment is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to cancel. A breakage deposit cheque (£75.00) is to be paid at the time of final payment. This will be returned within seven days of departure providing inspection records no breakages. The owner reserves the right to bank the cheque if breakages are discovered. If electricity used during the holiday exceeds £15 the owner will deduct the excess from the breakage deposit cheque. Any other necessary charges will be deducted and the balance returned along with any receipts. This does not limit the client's liability to the owner. The client shall report to the owner without delay any broken or missing items, defects or break-downs at the start of their holiday. The client shall reimburse the owner for any damage or breakage of the property contents and equipment in the grounds, including any caused by negligence by anyone in their party. The property will be available from 4 pm on the day of arrival. The client and party should vacate the property no later than 1O am on the day of departure. The number of people to reside in the property will be fixed at the time of booking; additions can only made with the express permission of the owner before the start of the holiday. The chalet sleeps six people: one double bed, two single beds and a double sofa bed. The clients agree to be considerate tenants and to take good care of the property. They will be responsible for leaving the property in a clean and tidy condition. They also agree not to act in a way that would cause disturbance to others. The owner reserves the right to make a charge from the breakage deposit if it is considered that the chalet has been left in an unacceptable condition. The owner cannot be held liable for any temporary defects or stoppage by public services to the property in respect of any equipment or appliances in the property nor any loss, damage nor injury as a result of adverse weather conditions, nor other matters however caused. Under no circumstances shall the owners' liability exceed the amount paid for the rental. If, in the event of substantial damage to the property - caused by storms etc - before the start of the holiday, a refund will be made of all the sums paid, within seven days. CANCELLATION. Providing notification is received in writing not less than eight weeks prior to the start of the holiday, all monies paid will be refunded less a £50 cancellation fee. If cancellation takes place less than eight weeks prior to the start of the holiday, refunds will be made if the owner is able to re-let the property. Any expense or loss incurred will be deducted from the refundable amount. If the property is unable to be relet, all rental monies are non-refundable. As clients are NOT covered by the owners' insurance, they are strongly advised to obtain comprehensive travel and personal insurance. N.B. REMEMBER THE DANGERS OF OPEN WATER. IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN, PLEASE NEVER LET THEM OUT OF YOUR SIGHT. *************************** If there's anything contained within our terms and conditions that you don't understand, please contact Paul or Jane Monaghan on: Tel: 0033 (0)5 45 61 31 60.
