Within eight weeks of the booked arrival date, payment in full must be made to secure a
booking. Otherwise, a deposit of 25% secures a booking. These payments are not refundable.
A telephone, email or Internet reservation will be held for five days until the required
payment is received.
-
Non-refundable payment in full is due eight weeks before the booked arrival date.
-
A security payment of 1000 euros (or £900, or $1400) against damage and the cost
of telephone calls is payable two weeks before the arrival date. In the case of no
damage at the property this payment is refundable in full minus the cost of telephone
calls made. Charges for damage are strictly at repair or replacement cost. Liability
for damage and the cost of telephone calls is not limited to 1000 euros (£900/$1400),
we reserve the right to recover all costs for phone calls and damage to the property.
All bookings are accepted on condition that the client will pay for any telephone
calls, damage and/or breakages in or to the property, for which the client is responsible,
including such damage as may be discovered after the client's departure. We reserve
the right to deduct costs for these from the security payment.
For off-season bookings (November to March inclusive), the client is responsible for
electricity payments. This is principally to cover the cost of warm air heating. Meter
readings will be taken on arrival and departure and the client will be charged for their
consumption at the current rate levied by Electricité de France, plus VAT.
-
The client(s) (whoever books and/or pays for My-Villa) is responsible for any accident
or personal injury arising from any action of a member of the client's party.
The client's party is defined to be:
-
The client and persons staying at the premises.
-
Any person invited to the premises.
-
The client accepts and acknowledges that a swimming pool can be dangerous, especially for
children. The client hereby provides an assurance that members of the client's party
will act responsibly in and around the pool area and further assures and agrees that
children in and around the pool area will be fully supervised at all times.
-
Animals are permitted by prior arrangement only. This is normally not a problem,
please consult.
-
The villa is alarmed. When left empty, all shutters, French windows and the front door
must be closed and locked and the alarm set.
-
Arrival and departure
-
All times are quoted in local French time, which is normally one hour ahead
of UK time.
-
You are asked to arrive between 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. and depart by 10:00 a.m.
on the allotted days. The owners are not responsible for any situation arising from
arrival or departure outside the specified times. For possible arrival or departure
outside of these times, please consult with the owners at least 24 hours in advance,
so that mutually acceptable arrangements can be made.
-
You are asked to leave the property as clean and tidy as you found it upon arrival.
The owners reserve the right to make deductions from the security payment should
the property be left unduly untidy or dirty.
-
Limit of responsibility and "force majeure". We endeavour to have failed electrical
equipment repaired or replaced as quickly as possible. Failed equipment or non-provision
of facilities such as Internet access and VoIP telephone service does not constitute a
breach of our responsibility. Under circumstances of "force majeur", such as illness
or other personal crisis, the mid week maid visit may be withheld without notice. We reserve
the right to provide space for only a single car in the garage, should our personal
circumstances dictate this. No recompense will be due for any instance of any of the
foregoing situations arising. We make no claim, implied or otherwise, that the safe is
suitable for the storage of valuables, use of the safe is entirely at the risk of the
client and the client's party.
