There could be badgers or foxes in the garden, and even an occasional bat flying around on summer evenings. All the Owners endeavour to make sure these are kept away, but in old rural properties the Agent cannot guarantee that these insects or wildlife won’t turn up, even though the Property will have been thoroughly cleaned. Please contact the caretaker if any major problems arise.

Each contract is therefore between the Owner and the Client and is made at the point at which the Agent issues a booking confirmation. The person signing the booking form certifies that he|she is authorised to agree the booking conditions on behalf of all persons included in the party. The signatory must be a member of the party and must be over 18 years of age. All the individuals over the age of 18 who are named in the Booking Form are jointly and severally liable under these Booking Conditions with the person signing the Booking Form (or who otherwise makes the booking) as if they were together the Client. Deposit & final payment A deposit of 25% is required for each week of a proposed booking, or if the booking is for less than a week, 25% of the cost of renting the Property. Until this deposit is received by the Agent, any reservation is deemed provisional and may be varied or cancelled without prior notice. The balance is due 8 weeks before the first day of the planned holiday. No reminder will be issued and in the event that the balance payment does not reach the Agent by the due date, the Agent reserves the right to cancel and relet the Property concerned. Failure to pay the balance in full by the due date will be deemed to be a cancellation of the booking. If the Client makes the booking less than 8 weeks before the start of the planned holiday, the full payment must be made and until it is made no booking confirmation will be issued. The receipt and banking of any deposit does not constitute an acceptance of any booking. Deposits will not normally be refundable unless the booking is not confirmed by the Agent for any reason. The price of renting each Property is listed in the front of the Brochure and on our website www.breconcottages.com. Cancellation Protection Scheme The holiday charges payable by the Client include a sum of £10 to protect the Client in circumstances where the Client has made a confirmed booking of a Property but cannot take up letting due to: (a)Death, illness, quarantine or bodily injury (i) of the Client or any member of the Client’s party and|or (ii) of the wife, husband, partner, parent, parent-in-law, child, sister, brother or fiancé(e) of the Client or any member of the Client’s party (excluding pets). (b)Any of the individuals specified in (a) above being summoned for Jury Service or witness attendance in a court in the United Kingdom. (c)Police requiring the Client or any member of the Client's party to return home following theft at their home or place of business or damage rendering their home or place of business uninhabitable. (d)Occupational posting of a military nature or cancellation of leave by H.M.S or an unexpected overseas posting of the Client or any member of the Client's party. It is a Condition Precedent, and the Client will only be able to rely on the Cancellation Protection Scheme, if the Client and all members of their party deemed to be covered are in good health physically and mentally at the time of booking. The Scheme does not cover claims directly or indirectly resulting from or consequent upon: (a)winter sports, mountaineering (normally involving ropes and|or guides) motor competitions; (b)any recurring, chronic or continuing illness, disability or condition of any of the persons covered, for which medical treatment or consultation has taken place during the 12 months immediately preceding the date of booking the holiday; (c)war and kindred risks; (d)disinclination to travel; (e)failure of public or private transport services; (f) suicide, attempted suicide, insanity, the influence of intoxicating liquor or the effect of drugs not taken in accordance with treatment prescribed and directed by a qualified medical practitioner or booking a holiday which would be against the advice of a registered medical practitioner; (g)pregnancy unless occurring after the inception of the insurance; (h)redundancy (i) any loss which is otherwise insured (j) inability to travel or to access the Property due to adverse weather conditions The decision of the Agent on all claims will be final. 136 Book now | booking form page 139-140 www.breconcottages.com In no circumstances will the Client be able to recover more under the Cancellation Protection Scheme than he or she has previously paid to the Agent in respect of the relevant booking. Moreover, no claim may be made under the Cancellation Protection Scheme where either the booking charges deposit and|or the balance (as the case may be) has not been paid on or before the relevant due date(s). The Cancellation Protection Scheme does not provide any cover or protection for any loss other than the booking charges for the relevant property; if the Client wants additional protection or cover then he or she is strongly advised to take out separate insurance cover. No claim may be made under the Cancellation Protection Scheme once the holiday has begun (and the holiday is deemed to begin for these purposes upon any member of the Client’s party taking possession of the key(s) to the Property). In the event that the Client is unable to take the holiday due to circumstances falling outside the Cancellation Protection Scheme then the Client will remain liable to pay the full letting charges for the relevant Property (to the extent not already paid) on the due date for such payment. Claims procedure Claims under the Cancellation Protection Scheme must be made in writing (using the Agent’s cancellation form available from the Agent) and sent to the Agent within seven (7) days of the Client first becoming aware of the circumstances which give rise to the claim (and in any event before the start date of the relevant holiday booking). An administration charge of £30 (plus VAT where applicable) will be made; the Agent’s booking fee and £10 cancellation charge are non-refundable and are not covered under the Cancellation Protection Scheme. Any claim must be supported by such supporting evidence as is appropriate in the circumstances (such as a Doctor’s certificate). Only one claim may be made per household per annum. Contact us on: 01874 676 446 Cancellation by the Agent If the Agent has to cancel a booking of a specified Property at any time after confirming a booking (e.g. because of flood or fire at the Property or any other damage to the Property) or should the Property be unavailable on the day that the holiday starts for reasons outside the Agent’s control (eg. failure of equipment or services serving the Property) then the Agent will offer the Client the choice of: • another alternative Property for the remainder of the original letting period (subject to availability); or • a refund of part of the amount paid by the Client to the Agent in relation to the relevant Property (which shall be calculated on a pro-rata basis proportionate to the number of days in respect of which the holiday letting is terminated). In such circumstances the Client shall have no further claim against the Owner or the Agent. The Client should note that the option of an alternative Property (if one is available) may be subject to an additional payment by the Client (where the alternative Property is larger or has a superior banding than the original Property); moreover the Client must accept that any alternative Property will be different from the original Property and may not have the same facilities (or location) as the original. In no circumstances will the Owner or Agent have any liability to the Client if the client is unable to obtain access to the Property (whether at the start of or at any time during the booking period) due to travel or transport difficulties (including, but not necessarily limited to, adverse weather conditions). Clients should be aware that some properties are in remote locations which can make them difficult to reach (particularly in adverse winter conditions). The Client will have no right to cancel the Booking (and will have no claim against either the Owner or Agent) if it is unable to access the Property in such circumstances. Brecon Beacons Holiday Cottages 137 Client's responsibilities & obligations Duration & times of letting The Client (here meaning all of the persons over the age of 18 listed on the booking form) agrees: The Property is available from 3.30pm on the first day of the letting and the Client must vacate by 10.30am on their departure day, unless otherwise agreed with the Owner|caretaker.

The Agent reserves the right to make a charge to the Client’s credit|debit card, or send an invoice for the amount to the Client’s address. The Client must let the Agent know of any special requirements at time of booking. If the Client or any member of the client’s party has any medical problem or disability that may affect the Client’s holiday, the Agent must be notified before confirming the holiday and follow up with written details. If the Agent feels unable to properly accommodate the particular needs of the person concerned the Agent reserves the right not to accept the booking.

If this is not possible, the Client should contact the Agent and between them the Owner and the Agent will endeavour to put matters right straight away. Failing this the Client should complete the Complaints Form|Questionnaire, which is sent with the final booking confirmation, and the form should be returned to the Agent within seven (7) days of the end of the holiday. Liability & Property descriptions The Brochure description is accurate at the time of going to press and is done in good faith. Where any information in the Brochure or on the website refers to matters beyond the Property (e.g. local facilities), the Agent does not guarantee their continued existence or the accuracy of any of the details about them contained in the Brochure or the website. The Agent does not accept responsibility for any act, neglect or default on the part of the Owner or any other person not within the Agent’s employ or otherwise under the Agent’s control, nor for any accident, damage, loss, injury, expenses or inconvenience whether to person or property which the Client or any other person may suffer or incur arising out of or in any way connected with the rental unless the Agent is directly responsible. Nothing in these conditions excludes or limits the liability of the Agent or the Owner: (a)for death or personal injury caused by the Agent's or the Owner's negligence; (b)for any matters in respect of which it is illegal for the Agent or the Owner to exclude or attempt to exclude their liability. Breach of contract If there shall be a breach of any of these conditions on the part of the Client or any member of the Client’s party, the Owner and the Agent reserve the right to re-enter the Property and to forthwith terminate the holiday letting without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of the Owner or Agent.
