 Top of page | | | | - The Property known as "La Résigné" is offered for holiday rental to "the Client" subject to confirmation by Paul and/or Fiona White ("the Owners") as outlined in the Booking Form.
- 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 (25% of the total rent due). Following receipt of the Booking Form and deposit, the Owners will send a confirmation invoice and statement. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.
- The balance of the rent, together with the security deposit (see clause 6), is payable not less than eight 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 or via e-mail that the reservation is cancelled. The Client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent unless the Owners are able to re-let the Property. In this event, clause 5 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.
- If you, the Client, need to cancel your booking once a deposit or the full balance has been paid, the Owners will require written notice from the person who signed the Booking form. Written notice may be by letter, facsimile or e-mail but will only be deemed effective when acknowledged by the Owners.
- Subject to clauses 2 and 3 above, in the event of a cancellation, refunds of amounts paid will be made if the Owners are 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 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.
- A security deposit of £250 is required in case of, for example, damage to the property or its contents. However, the sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the Client’s liability to the Owners. The Owners will account to the Client for the security deposit and refund the balance due (if applicable) within one week after the end of the rental period. If the security deposit is insufficient to meet the costs, an additional amount for the balance is payable and due by the person signing the Booking Form. This amount is to be settled within 7 days of the amount having been advised by the Owners.
- Any chargeable expenses arising during the rental period (e.g. gas, telephone calls) will be settled with the Owners who will advise as to the amounts due and payment thereafter to be made within 7 days of said advice.
- 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.
- The maximum number to reside in the Property must not exceed the advertised capacity unless the Owners have given written permission.
- 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. All rubbish and rubbish sacks are to be removed regularly throughout the holiday and on departure. Failure to do so may result in an additional charge to be levied against your refundable amount.
Although a "final clean" is included in the rental 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. Any breakages and unpaid additional charges will be settled as outlined in the Booking Form. The Client also agrees not to act in any way which would cause disturbance to those residents in neighbouring properties.
The Owners reserve the right of immediate eviction if any abuse of property takes place, and/or if the maximum number of persons is exceeded without prior consent and/or if advised by neighbouring residents of repeated unacceptable behaviour by the Client.
- The Client shall report to the Owners without delay any defects in the Property or breakdown in the 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.
- The swimming pool will normally be available from mid-May to mid-October (weather permitting) but this cannot be guaranteed. French law requires pool safety measures (which are in place at "La Résigné") but does specifically state that parents/adults are primarily responsible for the safety of children and does not negate parental responsibility. It is understood that parents/adults will supervise children at all times, particularly whilst children are near or in the swimming pool. The Client must not override pool safety measures.
- The Owners shall not be liable to the Client:
for any temporary defect or stoppage in the supply of public services to the Property, nor in respect of any equipment, plant, machinery or appliance in the Property, garden or swimming pool.
for any loss, damage or inconvenience caused to 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 to the Client all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period.
for force majeure, defined as: unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the Owners’ control, the consequences of which we could avoid, examples of which are war, threat of war, riots, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, natural or nuclear disaster, fire or adverse weather conditions, level of water in rivers or other similar events beyond the control of the Owners.
- Under no circumstances shall the Owners’ liability to the Client exceed the amount paid to the Owners for the rental period.
- Other than as set out above and as detailed elsewhere in these booking conditions, the Owners shall have no legal liability whatsoever to the Client in respect of any personal injury or death or in respect of any other damage which the Client may suffer arising directly or indirectly from any aspect of any holiday arrangements booked with the Owners. The Client uses the Property entirely at his/her own risk and the Owners accept no liability for injury, loss or damage to Property, personal belongings, vehicles and their contents whatsoever.
- Any legal proceedings initiated by the Client in respect of a claim against the Owners must be undertaken within 30 days of the Client’s return from the holiday. Otherwise the Owners’ liability will in all cases be limited to a sum of £100. Providing the legal proceedings commence within the stated timeframe, the liability of the Owners is always limited to a maximum of the amount paid by the Client for the rental period.
If services are provided by a Third Party, the Owners are not responsible for the liabilities of the Third Party.
No liability can be accepted if the Owners are not notified.
- The Owners and/or their appointed representatives reserve the right to enter the Property at any reasonable time to carry out normal maintenance including gardening, swimming pool maintenance and/or similar and/or in relation to any disturbance as mentioned in Clause 10.
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.
Please note that reference to these Booking Conditions will be included with the confirmation invoice/statement.
