For the purpose of the Terms of Letting Mill Farm shall mean Mill Farm and Visitor shall mean the person named in the booking form.
Deposit:
A booking for a property becomes firm when a 50% deposit* of the booking, together with a security deposit (held against breakages) and a completed booking form are received by Mill Farm.
Up to that time it is a provisional booking and provisional bookings are held for a maximum of 7 days.
Final Payment:
The full balance of the total holiday cost is payable not later than eight weeks before the holiday begins.
If the full balance is not paid on time, Mill Farm reserves the right to cancel the holiday booking, in which case the deposit will be forfeited.
Cancellation:
The reservation of a property amounts to making a contract. We advise that you should take out separate holiday cancellation insurance. The deposit is non-refundable and so to is the final payment if cancellation is within 8 weeks. These reflect the conditions as stipulated by the property owners whom we represent and are in line with most holiday rental agencies. For your convenience we have provided links to a couple of well known and very reputable insurance companies. Many good credit card issuers will also provide you with complimentary travel insurance as part of their customer benefits.
Visitor Accommodation Limitation:
Accommodation is limited to the number of persons for whom the booking is made; the maximum number must not exceed the number stated on the website. The client may have supplementary guests staying as visitors but should advise the likelihood of this to us in advance and the numbers must not exceed the occupancy limit for the property as stipulated on the website.
