Please ensure you read and fully understand our booking terms and conditions. If anything is
unclear, please contact us so we can explain in further detail to avoid any misunderstandings.


Bookings are subject to the following terms and conditions:

• A contract between you and the owners of Audrey's will come into existence when payment is
received and a booking confirmation is issued, showing the confirmed holiday dates. The contract
binds you & all the members of your party. It is your responsibility to ensure that all members of your
party accept the terms of the contract set out in these terms & conditions of booking. Failure to
disclose all relevant information or comply with these terms may lead to termination of the contract
& loss of the booking.

• A non-refundable 20% deposit of the holiday cost is payable at the time of booking. Bookings made
less than six weeks before your arrival date must be paid in full, plus the £100 refundable damage
deposit.

• The balance must be paid no later than six weeks before the commencement of your holiday. If the
balance is not received by the due date, then your holiday will be treated as a cancellation and the
client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent.

• All cancellations must be notified in writing. If you cancel your holiday more than 6 weeks before it is
due to start, then your deposit will be forfeit.
If you cancel less than 6 weeks before the holiday, then the following amount will be charged:
