Booking Conditions

1. General

Guests undertake to keep the holiday cottage and all furniture, fixtures, fittings and effects in or on the premises in the same state of repair and condition as at the commencement of the holiday and also undertakes to leave the premises in the same state of cleanliness and general order in which it was found. Milburn Grange Holidays should be compensated for any damage and breakages that may occur (fair wear and tear excepted).

2. Bookings

Subject to availability of the accommodation requested, bookings will be confirmed upon receipt of the deposit. Receipts will not be issued for the balance of the fee unless requested. Should a receipt be required please send a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your cheque for the balance of the cost of the holiday accommodation. The accommodation may only be used by the person named on the booking form. The number in the party must not exceed that which was booked.

3. Payment

A deposit of 25% of the total cost is required to secure a booking. The balance is due at least six weeks before the commencement of the holiday. The full cost of the holiday is payable on any booking made within six weeks of the date booked.

4. Cancellation

If the guest finds it necessary to cancel the holiday before the final balance is due he should inform Milburn Grange Holidays immediately who will then endeavour to re-let the cottage. If the cottage is re-let the deposit will be returned less an administration fee of £25. In the event that the cottage is not re-let then, unfortunately, all monies paid are forfeit and the person booking the holiday will be liable for the full cost of the booking. If the guest finds it necessary to cancel the holiday after the final balance becomes due, whether or not the final balance has been paid, then unless the cottage is re-let the guest will be liable for the full cost of the holiday. We strongly advise that you insure against cancellation and will forward a proposal form with confirmation of your booking or guests may purchase this on-line.
