Terms & Conditions and privacy policy

Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy

Upon acceptance via payment of your deposit, these terms form a contract between us, Seasgair, and you as the representative of all guests who are included in the booking. These terms and conditions may be amended from time to time.

Number of Guests

The maximum number of people who may stay at the property is two. If more than two people are using the property, without permission, this will be considered a breach of contract and you will be asked to leave. In these circumstances you will not be entitled to any refund. You may not onwards let the property or allow others to occupy the property in your place under any circumstances. Upon booking, you must tell us the names of all members of your party who will be staying at the property, and you must advise us of any changes to the number or names of guests who will stay before check-in.

Children

Seasgair is not suitable for young children (from walking age) as there is a steep unprotected bank in front of the house. If older children are staying at Seasgair, please be aware that your children are your responsibility at all times both in terms of their safety in and around the property and damage to property and/or furnishings.

Pets

You are welcome to bring a dog to Seasgair. We allow a maximum of one dog per booking. Please note the property is not fully enclosed for dogs so if they wander they could access the main road below the house. We cannot accept any responsibility for dogs who wander away from the property. There are also occasionally sheep further up on the hill behind the house, so please keep your dog under control when walking. There is a small additional cleaning fee per dog per stay which will be listed on the pricing page. If you are bringing with your dog with you, we would respectfully request that your dog is NOT EVER on the bed or directly on the leather sofa. If you would like your dog on the sofa then you must bring your own blankets and ensure that the dog is fully on the blanket at all times to avoid scratches. Any damage to the leather sofas or hair left on bedding will be charged extra. In the interests of hygiene, health and safety, and out of consideration for others, it is vital that you clean up after your dog both around the property and further afield. Poop bags need to be placed in a separate bag and stored outside the house at all times. These can be hung inside the wheelie bin at the back of the house and removed from the property as often as possible. These can be placed in the blue skip down in front of the hamlet. We ask that you clean and dry your dog, before entering the property after being outside in wet weather. Guests are responsible for any damage caused by their dog, whether inside or outside the property.

Parties Groups and Commercial Activities

Use of the property for parties, group gatherings or commercial activities is not permitted and you will be asked to leave if such activities are undertaken without our prior consent. In those circumstances you will not be entitled to a refund. Should you wish to book the property for a commercial purpose, please contact us via the contact page prior to booking and we will consider your request on a case-by-case basis.

Visitors

You are welcome to invite visitors for normal social activities during your stay, however visitors are not permitted to stay over (unless you have listed them as guests on your booking) and the total number staying at the property does not exceed two or the size of the party agreed at the time of booking. You shall not allow any visitors to camp or stay elsewhere on the property under any circumstances. You remain at all times entirely responsible for your visitors’ conduct and any damages caused by them.

Bookings

A 50% deposit is payable at the time of booking. The balance of fees and a good housekeeping deposit are payable no later than 3 weeks before your arrival date. We are unable to guarantee that a reminder will be sent and we reserve the right to cancel your stay if final payment is not received by the due date. Bookings made less than 3 weeks prior to the arrival date must be paid in full at the time of booking.

Good Housekeeping Deposit

A £350 deposit is payable to cover breakages, mishaps and for any additional cleaning beyond that reasonably required were the property kept in good order during your stay. We will contact you if we determine that retention of the deposit or additional cleaning charges will apply. Otherwise your deposit will be refunded to you no later than 7 days after your departure date.

If You Cancel Your Booking

If you need to cancel your booking you must let us know in writing. 50% of paid fees are refundable if you cancel 3 weeks or more before the date of your arrival.  For cancellations after this no fees are refundable.  

If We Cancel Your Booking

In the very unlikely event we are unable to offer you the property for your stay, we will provide you with a full refund. We will not be liable for any onwards or consequential costs of cancellation incurred by you.

Arrival and Departure

The property will be available from 4pm on the day of arrival. You must vacate the house by 10am on the day of departure. Details regarding access to the house and further useful information to aid your stay will be made available once final payment has been received.

Smoking/Vaping

Smoking, vaping or the use of electric smoking devices in or near the property is not permitted. Evidence of smoking including odours or discarded smoking paraphernalia will result in the forfeit of the good housekeeping deposit and we reserve the right to charge an additional amount for specialist cleaning if required.

Cleaning

Please ensure that at the end of your stay the property is left as you found it and that you follow the departure instructions provided. Please ensure all crockery, cutlery, glassware, pots, pans and utensils are cleaned and replaced in drawers and cupboards. We reserve the right to charge an additional amount for cleaning should the house not be left in a reasonable condition.

General Housekeeping

Please remove outdoor shoes inside the property and treat the property and all furnishings and finishes with respect. Please refrain from wearing make up or freshly applied tanning products in bed as these may cause staining to the bed linen and additional cleaning or replacement charges will apply in the event that bed linen is damaged in this way.

Recycling

Please use bags within the bins provided in the kitchen for recycling and for general waste. Please keep mixed recycling and general waste separate. Full bags (waste and recycling) can be tied and placed into the grey wheelie bin located behind the house to the left of the front door. Do not empty loose waste into the grey wheelie bin and do not leave full bin bags anywhere else on the property or grounds. Glass should be removed from the property and recycled in the mixed glass recycling bins down in front of the hamlet.

Limit of Liability

We take no responsibility for the personal possessions and vehicles which are left entirely at your own risk. Children must be supervised at all times. Dogs must be kept under control at all times. We shall not be liable for any loss or damage to possessions and vehicles or for personal injury during your stay.

Mishaps and Breakages

We ask that you take care to look after the property including its fixtures, fittings and contents as if it were your own. However, we understand that accidental breakages or mishaps can occur and we ask that you let us know immediately so that we can assess the damage and take action where necessary. This is especially important regarding spillages to upholstery/bedding, kitchen units and worktops, bathroom fittings and all flooring. Please do not use any cleaning products that you have purchased yourself in the event of spillage as they may not be compatible with the surfaces. We reserve the right to cover breakages and mishaps via deduction from the good housekeeping deposit, other than minor breakages and reasonable wear and tear.

Privacy and Security

We and third party vendors, acting on our behalf, will necessarily process your personal information to take your booking and enable your stay at the property. We will only retain this data where it is reasonable and necessary for us to do so. We will, upon request, advise you of what data we hold related to you and purge or destroy this data should you ask us to, where this is reasonable or necessary under legislation.

Right of Entry

Should any emergency repairs be required, we reserve the right to enter the house at a reasonable time or, for non-emergency matters, at a time arranged with you. We reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone who, in our opinion, is not suitable or capable of taking charge of the property. Should we reasonably suspect you are in breach of contract we reserve the right to enter the house and ask you to leave should your behaviour be considered to be unsafe, unreasonable or in breach of any of our agreed terms.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
