Hall Farm Cottages - Terms and Conditions of Hire
Please read this carefully. When you book your holiday with us you are entering into a contract which binds you and us in various ways.You’ll see we have clearly set out the booking conditions with a list of responsibilities and commitments we and you have towards each other.

1. Terms. All terms are per week (Saturday to Saturday) for the Cottage as equipped and described in our brochure/ website. Short breaks, when available, are charged at 66% of the weekly rate. For Short Breaks that cover two price periods, the week in which the greater number of nights are taken applies. Where an equal number of nights are taken in two different price periods. the average of the two weekly prices applies. The usual time of take-over is 4pm (subject to unavoidable delays). You must leave your Cottage by 10am on your day of departure. You are obliged to leave everything in a clean and tidy condition. You are responsible for any damage done or loss sustained during your stay. We reserve the right to correct errors in both advertised and confirmed prices. We will do so as soon as we become aware of the error.
2. Booking Confirmation. Our verbal or telephone agreement shall constitute an Offer by Ourselves and a Contract shall come into existence if and when we issue a hire invoice and booking confirmation. The contract shall be deemed to have been made at our office in Horning and be subject to English Law and the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts. In all cases these Conditions of Hire shall form the basis of your contract with us.Changes by You; Once a booking has been confirmed by us to you, should you require us to amend it or to re-invoice you for any reason (including for example accidental loss of the original invoice) then a fee of £20.00 will be charged. Up to 8 weeks before the holiday start date you may change your Cottage to another one within our park, subject to availability and payment of the above fee. You may transfer your booking to someone else/another party (introduced by you) at any time providing you pay the administration fee of £20.00.
3. Number in your party. It is a condition of your booking that the total number in your party shall not exceed the capacity of the Cottage as advertised in our brochure. Babies under 2 may or may not be counted as members of your party.
4. Booking Monies. When you book you must pay a 25% deposit on your Cottage within 7 days of receipt of your invoice.
For bookings from overseas we require 50% of the hire charge as a deposit on your Cottage.
Your Balance-of-Hire-Money is due and payable by the date printed on your Hire Invoice (8 weeks before your holiday start date). For bookings made within 8 weeks of your holiday start date you pay the full monies when you make your booking. We reserve the right to charge administration costs and interest on late payments. We also reserve the right to pass on to you any bank charges and other costs we incur if payment is made in a foreign currency; or by any other method not normally accepted by us; or if we have to re-present a cheque or process late payments.
Default in Completion Should you fail to pay the balance of the money, and do not notify us that you wish to cancel, or do not arrive for your holiday, you will still be liable for the outstanding monies.
.5. Cancellation by You. Telephone us immediately if you have to cancel your holiday. Then on the same day send us by first class mail your Hire Invoice. Your cancellation is effective from the date we receive your written notification. Your cancellation will be acknowledged by us in writing. We will then endeavour to re-let for you. If you cancel, you are still liable for the payment of your balance-of-hire money. We will endeavour to re-let your holiday. If we are able to do so before you pay your balance of hire money, you lose your booking deposit only. If we are able to re-let after you have paid your balance of hire money, we will refund the whole or part of that money up to a maximium of the hire charges we receive on re-letting.
You are strongly recommended to take out insurance on your holiday.
