(1) Holiday rental subject to confirmation by Mr & Mrs A.I.Scott (the owners) to the renter (the client).

(2) To reserve the property the client should complete the online booking form. We shall e-mail you directly we receive the form. This will provisionally reserve the dates that you require at Le Petit Verger. We ask that you send the non-refundable deposit (25% of the total rent due) to the address given on our prices page within 10 days. Upon receipt of the deposit the booking is deemed to be confirmed. Payment may be made by any of the methods found on our prices page.
Alternatively this process can be completed via e-mail, for your convenience.

(3) The balance of the rent is payable no less than six weeks before the start of the rental period. If payment is not received by the due date the owners reserve the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. Reservations made within six weeks of the start of the rental period require payment at the time of booking.

(4) We do not charge any security deposit, preferring instead that if there are any breakages etc, that these are reported to us. We do not usually charge for items such as glasses as we realise that accidents can happen.

(5) Subject to clause 2 and 3 above in the event of non-insurable cancellations refunds of amounts paid may be made if the owners are able to re-let the property. Any expenses or losses incurred in so doing will be deducted from the refundable amount. The client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive travel insurance policy (including cancellation cover) and to have full cover for the party's personal belongings, public liability etc since these are not covered by the owners insurance.

(6) The rental period shall commence at 4.00pm on the first day and finish at 10.00am on the last day. The owners shall not be obliged to offer the accommodation before the time stated and the client shall not be entitled to remain in occupation after the time stated. We can be flexible if your requirements are varied.

(7) The maximum number of people to reside in the property must not exceed the advertised capacity unless the owners have given written permission.

(8) The client agrees to be a considerate tenant and to take good care of the property and to leave it in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period. Although a final clean is included in the price the owners reserve 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 that would cause disturbance to the residents in other properties and to those residents in neighbouring properties.

(9) The client shall report to the owners without delay any defects in the property, breakdown of equipment, plant machinery or appliances in the property, garden or swimming pool and arrangements for repair and/or replacement will be made as soon as possible.

(10) The owners 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 respect of any equipment, plant machinery or appliances in the property, garden or swimming pool .
(b) any loss, damage or injury that is the result of adverse weather conditions, riots, war, strikes or other matters beyond the control of the owner.
(c) any loss, damage or inconvenience caused or suffered by the client if the property shall be destroyed or substantially damaged before the start of the rental period and in any such event the owners shall within seven days of notification to the client refund the client all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period.

(11) Under no circumstances shall the owners liability to the client exceed the amount paid to the owners 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 proceeding arising of or in connection with this contract may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in England.

(12) Pet Policy.

We are sorry but we do not accept pets.

(13) Smoking is allowed anywhere outside the gite, but not inside. Thank you.

Thank you for your understanding.

Tony & Sue.
