The Hiring Contract is between the Property Owners and the Party Leader who must sign a Booking Form accepting the Booking Conditions on behalf of all persons named on the Booking Form including any names substituted or amended on the form by written agreement.  A Contract exists when the required deposit has been paid and the Owners have acknowledged the same by issue of a Booking Confirmation.  The Contract is subject to English Law and the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.

2.      Confirmation

On receipt of the required deposit payment and the signed Booking Form a Confirmation will be issued.  Accommodation is reserved only for the persons named on the Booking Form.  Any alterations, substitutions or additions to these details must be notified and agreed in advance of the commencement of the rental in writing.  A charge may be levied for this service if notification is less than eight weeks before the rental commencement date.  Bookings may not be assigned to another party except by express agreement with the Owners in writing.  Once a confirmation has been issued the Hirer is responsible for the total price of the property rental as shown on the confirmation.  Signing of the Booking Form constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions by the Client.  

3.      Balance of Payment

The balance of payment will be required not less than eight weeks before the Hire is due to commence.  Where payment in full has not been made by this date the Owners reserve the right to cancel the booking.  Bookings made within eight weeks of the rental commencement date must be paid in full at the time of booking.

If the Hirer wishes to cancel the booking this must be done in writing by Registered Post.  Cancellation will only become effective from the date that written notification is received at the Owners’ office.
