reservation in the event of certain circumstances which are set
out below.

4. Changes by You
Should you wish to make any changes to your reservation, you must
notify us in writing as soon as possible. Whilst we will endeavour
to assist, we cannot guarantee we will be able to meet any such
requests. An amendment charge of £15 per amendment will be
charged if the amendment results in a reduction of the total cost
of the reservation.
5. Changes by Us
In the event we have cause to cancel your reservation as a result
of force majeure, that is any occurrence outside our control and
which could not have been avoided with all due care. We will always
endeavour to offer you alternative accommodation of a similar standard.
If the cost is less than your original booking then we will refund
the difference to you. If, however, the cost is more and you accept
the offer, then we will ask for the difference.
If a significant change occurs to your reservation you will be
informed immediately we are aware of any changes. You will then
be given a choice of revised accommodation or cancelling your accommodation
and accepting a refund of monies paid to us.
Force Majeure and significant change include the results of acts
of God, Governments, war, political unrest, fire, theft, customs
regulations, transport problems, breakdown of machinery or equipment,
water shortages and any other circumstance outside our control.
6. Complaints/Problems
Any complaints or problems regarding the accommodation should be
brought promptly to the attention of the owner or caretaker so that
they can be investigated and if possible remedied immediately. If
this fails then call us in the UK on +44 (0)1463 792825.
7. Indemnity
It is your responsibility to ensure the proper conduct of yourself
and your party during your stay. The accommodation provider reserves
the right to terminate your stay or that of any member of your party
at any time due to your individual or group misconduct, within their
reasonable opinion. Full cancellation charges will then apply and
no refund will be given. The accommodation owner will be under no

incurred as a result of your booking being terminated. If your actions,

which you are staying, you will be liable to fully indemnify us
against any claim (including legal costs) made by the accommodation
owner. You will also be liable to pay for any damage caused, directly
to the accommodation owner, before the end of your stay.
