requirements only

MINIMUN FOUR OVERNIGHT STAYSInsurance
It
is your
responsibility to
ensure all party
members are
appropriately
insured & to
arrange additional
cover where
necessary. Please
read your travel
insurance policy
before travelling
& take it with
you.
The
tenants are required
to have the adequate
insurance cover for
the rented property
and must therefore
ensure that their
home insurance
policy provides
adequate coverage
for rented holiday
houses. If not they
should see to it
that their travel
insurance policy
does cover all
damages to the
rented property. We
strongly advise you
to take out extra
holiday cover for
any eventualities.
The Owner reserves
the right to request
proof that you are
properly insured. (We
would also advise
guests to take out
travel insurance
against unforeseen
cancellations.)

All
cancellations must
be notified in
writing and sent to
the owner by registered
post.
>In
the event of a
cancellation
occurring over 24
hrs before the
beginning of the
holiday, the minimum
deposit will not be
refunded.
>
In the event of
a cancellation
occurring within 24
hrs of the beginning
of the holiday the
minimum deposit is
forfeit and the
balance for the
booked period will
still be payable for
the due date, unless
arranged otherwise
with the Owner.
>
In the event of the
tenant’s not
arriving by 7pm on
the due date, the
contract is void and
the Owner will be
allowed to re-let
the property.
>
In the event of the
tenant vacating the
property prematurely,
the balance for the
whole booked period
will still be
payable for the due
date.
>
In the event of the
owner having to
cancel the booking,
a written
notification will be
sent to the tenant
by registered post
or telegram.
Regardless of the
owner’s liability
for any subsequent
claims, the tenant
will immediately be
refunded of all
monies paid.
Premature
interruption
of
stay
In the event of the
tenant vacating the
property prematurely
for personal reasons,
and if the Owner’s
responsibility is
not implicated, the
minimum safety
deposit will be
repaid, but the
tenant will be
liable to pay the
whole of the rental
amount.
CleaningYour
property has been
prepared for your
arrival with all due
care. It is
therefore essential
that you clean
thoroughly before
your departure, in
order to leave it as
you would expect to
find it.
NB
Extra charges will
be made where a
property is not left
clean. We do ask
that you leave the
property and its
contents as you find
them. Failure to
comply with this may
result in a 50€
charge being made
and deducted from
the safety deposit.
Please
put everything back
where you found it.
Take away all
personal items and
foodstuffs. Sweep/Hoover
floors and wipe down
surfaces.
Wash-up
(or put on and empty
the dishwasher), put
all crockery away,
and clean the
dishwasher filter if
necessary.
Don't
forget to clean the
BBQ (grills can
usually go in a
dishwasher).
Empty
all wastepaper
baskets and bins,
and put them back in
the appropriate
places.
Rubbish should be
taken to the
appropriate disposal
point.
Cleaning

Particular
cases
To comply with the
owner’s insurance
requirements only
the maximum number
of persons and
animals, shown on
the Booking Form,
may occupy a
property. If the
stated number of
persons is exceeded,
the Owner is
entitled to refuse
entry or to ask for
extra charge.
Acces
to swimming pool
The
swimming
pool is likely to be used by the owner; as a consequence
access is restricted to the following schedule:
from 10:00 to 12:00am and from 05:00
to 07:00pm
(Extra
access may be negociated at
any time).
The pool can
be
accessed only from May 1 to October 31.
Pool
liners are very
delicate and can
easily be punctured.
No hard or sharp
objects (e.g. oars
for a dinghy) should
be taken into the
pool, and great
care should be taken
with any pool
cleaning equipment -
children should not
be allowed to use
it. The cost of
replacing a pool
liner can be in
excess of £2,000!
The
Tenant has
responsibility for
ensuring that the
pool safety
recommendations are
observed. The Owner
will accept no
responsibility for
accidents or
injuries occurring
in connection with
the pool except if
directly caused by
His own negligence.
The Tenant agrees
that all precautions
necessary to ensure
the safety of all
members of His party
should be taken to
avoid all dangerous
activities in the
vicinity of the
pool. The depth of
the pool is between
1.2m and 2m, and it
is the Tenant’s
responsibility to
ensure that minors
are supervised at
all times in the
vicinity of the
pool. The Tenant
agrees to follow the
recommendations
provided at the time
of occupation, and
to ensure that
glassware is not
used in the vicinity
of the pool.
In keeping with French law, the swimming
pool cover provides a standardised
security system (NF P 90-308) and two secure
gates. Besides
the pool can only be accessed through safety gates. After use
the pool must be covered, and the gates must be locked. Childrens are not allowed to use the pool
unless in the mandatory presence of an adult tenant.
Inventory
A
contradictory
inventory of
fixtures will be
made on arrival and
departure by the
Owner/key holder and
Tenant. Please
report all damages/breakages
during your stay
immediately.
Pets
Sorry,
no cats.
Dogs
may be accepted by
special permission
of the Owner.
Toilets
Even
though the house is
new and up to
standard we are
still on subsurface
sewage disposal
system. For your
septic system to
work effectively,
take appropriate
precautions in
everyday use of it.
Do
not dispose of the
following substances
in the septic
system:
·
Coffee
grounds
·
Dental floss
·
Disposable
diapers
·
Cat box
litter
·
Cigarette
butts
·
Sanitary
napkins
·
Tampons
·
Plastics
·
Bulky wastes
Disposal
of these items adds
to the solids load
and fills the septic
tank more rapidly.
This decreases
efficiency and
increases
maintenance costs.
Use the garbage
disposal bins
instead.
Avoid
pouring liquid fats,
grease, or oils down
the kitchen sink
drain. Fats and
greases solidify and
can block parts of
the system.
Similarly keep toxic
and hazardous
chemicals out of the
septic system.
House
linen
Linen is not
provided.
Phone and wifi
A telephone is at
the disposal of the
tenant (national and
international). This
will allow tenants
to use the telephone
provided they have
purchased a
“France Telecom
Card” at any
France Telecom
agency. It is linked
to the Téléséjour
system, whereby you
can use a France
Telecom charge-card,
which you can buy
locally in most
Tabacs, post offices
and France Telecom
outlets. You simply
dial your account
number and pin
number, and the
telephone number you
require.
