BOOKING CONDITIONS
General: Carbis Bay Holidays is a trading name of Printcater Limited. The company is registered in England with Registered Number: 02779888 and the Registered Address is White House, Wollaton Street, Nottingham, NG1 5GF. Customers renting the property through Carbis Bay Holidays are referred to as the “Guests” or the “Guest”. Carbis Bay Holidays act as “Agents” for the owners of the property (hereafter referred to as the “Owners” or the “Owner”). The rental arrangements are made by the Agents, on behalf of the Owners and the contractual relationship is directly between the Owner and the Guest. The agents will, on request and with approval from the owners, provide the names and address details of the owners of the property in which they have made a reservation..
Arrival & Departure Times: Rentals are for a maximum of four weeks and commence at 3.00pm on the first day of the rental and end at 10.00am on the day of departure unless otherwise notified. This period is hereafter referred to as the “Holiday”
The period booked will be stated on the reservation confirmation provided to the Guest when they book and cannot be exceeded unless Carbis Bay Holidays give written approval. The Guest will be liable for any cost, of whatever nature, incurred because of an unauthorised extension.
Deposit: When a reservation is made via the reservation form on the Carbis Bay Holidays website (the “Website”), the Guest has 7 days from the day they receive the reservation confirmation, in which to make a payment to secure the Holiday. This then becomes a “Booking”.
If a Booking is made six weeks or more before the Holiday is due to start, a deposit of one-third of the rent is payable. If a booking is made less than six weeks before the start of the Holiday, the full rent plus any additional charges must be paid at the time of booking. Should the Agents not accept or reject a booking request, the rent and any additional charges paid by the Guest will be refunded immediately.
Security Deposit: A security deposit is due for payment with the Final Payment towards the Holiday. In most instances, this is £100.00, however, a larger deposit may be required, depending on the property selected. The Owner shall be entitled to deduct from the Security Deposit the cost of remedying any breach of Guest’s Obligations, together with the cost of any associated service or goods provided to rectify that breach. The whole amount of the Security Deposit, or the balance after any deduction will be refunded to you within 14 days following the end of the Holiday.
Final Payment: Unless otherwise agreed by the Agent in writing, the price for the Holiday shall be the rent for the property as set out on the Website at the time of the booking.
Subject to a cancellation, as soon as the booking is confirmed by the Agents, the Guest is liable for payment of the balance of the rent.
The rent is payable to Carbis Bay Holidays six weeks before the start of the Holiday (the “Due Date”) and non-payment by the Due Date may be treated as a cancellation. If payment is not received by the Due Date, then the Guest will lose their booking and the deposit will be forfeit. The Due Date will be set out on your Reservation Confirmation.
Changing a Booking: Once the dates of a booking have been accepted by the Agent, the booking can only be changed to another property by treating the original booking as a cancellation. The dates of the Holiday may be changed, providing the same property is available for the new dates and the Owners accept the change. In this case, the Agents reserve the right to make an administration charge.
Cancellation: A booking can only be cancelled prior to the start of the Holiday. A Guest who wishes to cancel the Holiday must notify The Agent in writing within seven days of them becoming aware that they cannot take up the Holiday, (“Cancellation Notice”). If a Cancellation Notice is received six weeks or more before the Holiday is due to start, the balance will be cancelled. If cancellation is made less than six weeks before the start of the holiday, the balance is payable in full. There is an administration change of £50 for cancellations. In the event of a cancellation, The Agent will use their best endeavours to secure another booking in the same property for the same week. If this is achieved, all monies paid for this replacement booking, less the £50.00 administration charge, will be refunded. If due to any occurrence beyond the control of the owner or his agent, the accommodation is unavailable as booked eg. fire, flood etc, all monies paid to us will be refunded in full but there will be no further liability towards the hirer..
Method of Payment: Payments may be made by debit or credit card, cheque or electronic bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to “Carbis Bay Holidays Client Account”. Post-dated cheques are not acceptable. Debit card transactions are free of charge and all payments made by credit card will be subject to a non-refundable 2% surcharge. Any charges raised against the Agents by their bank for handling dishonoured cheques, bank transfers or any other payments will be passed on to the Guest, by way of a deduction from the security deposit.
Overseas Bookings: Overseas Guests may pay in Sterling by cheque drawn on a UK bank, or by international electronic transfer. Our SWIFT and IBAN numbers will be provided on request. Any charges for payments from overseas will be passed on to the Guest via a deduction from the security deposit.
