Le Peynau Booking and Rental Conditions

1.  The Property includes "Le Chai" and "Le Pigeonnier" (each a “Gite”), the garden, games room and games areas and the swimming pool and pool area (the “Facilities”).  The Gites including use of the Facilities but excluding access to or use of the Owner's accommodation and the Owner's garden are offered for holiday rental, individually or together subject to confirmation by Mr or Mrs C Jones (the “Owner”) to the renter (the “Client”) and acceptance by the Client of these terms and conditions.

2.  To reserve one or both Gites, the Client should complete and sign the booking form and return it with payment of the initial non-refundable deposit (30% of the total rent due in £GBP).  Following receipt of the booking form and deposit, the Owner will send a confirmation invoice.  This is the formal acceptance of the booking.

3.  The balance of the rent together with a refundable security deposit (see Clause 4) is payable not less than eight weeks before the start of the rental period.  If payment is not received by the date due, the Owner reserves the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled.  Reservations made within the eight weeks of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking.

4. The Client shall be liable to the Owner for any breakages, loss or damage to the Property or any part of it or any contents or the Facilities caused by the Client or any member of his/her party or any invited guests.  A refundable security deposit of £125 per Gite per booking is required in case of, for example, loss of or damage to a Gite or its contents.  However, the sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the Client's liability to the Owner.  The Owner will account to the Client for the security deposit and refund the amount due less deduction for any breakages, loss or damage within 1 month after the end of the rental period.

5.  In the event of a cancellation, the Owner will try to arrange alternative rental(s) for the same period.  A refund of any amount paid by the Client less any expenses or losses incurred will be made if and only to the extent that alternative rental(s) have been secured.  The Client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive travel insurance policy (including cancellation cover) and to have cover for the Party's personal belongings, medical expenses, public liability, etc since these are not covered by the Owner's insurance.

6.  The rental period will commence at 4.00 pm on the first day and finish at 10.00 am on the last day.  The Owner is not obliged to offer the accommodation before the time stated and the Client is not entitled to remain in occupation after the time stated.  Please advise if you will be arriving later than 6.00 pm.

7.  The maximum number of people to reside in each Gite must not exceed the number as stated in the Owner's brochure, unless the Owner has given prior written permission..  In the interests of safety each of the Facilities shall only be used for the purposes for which it is intended.  Where the Client has rented only one Gite the use of the Facilities will not be exclusive and may have to be shared with members of a Party who have rented the other Gite.  Subject to these conditions the Client may at the sole discretion and with the prior permission of the Owner occasionally invite guests other than members of his/her party onto the Property and to use the Facilities.   Notwithstanding the giving of permission the Owner reserves the right at any time to require any guests to immediately leave the Property or to cease using the Facilities.

8.  The Client agrees he/she and all members of his party or guests will act with consideration for others using the Property and will abide by the reasonable requests of the Owner including but not limited to requests made on the grounds of safety or the welfare or reasonable expectations of others using the Property.  The Client will take good care of each rented Gite, and its contents.  The Client agrees to leave each rented Gite in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period.  The Owner reserves the right to make a retention of £50 per rented Gite from the security deposit to cover additional cleaning costs if the Client leaves the Property in an unacceptable condition.  The Client also agrees not to act and to ensure that no one in his/her party acts in any way which would cause an undue disturbance or nuisance to others using the Property or any part of it.

9.  If the Client reports to the Owner, any defects in each rented Gite or any breakdown or defect in any of the Facilities, equipment, plant or machinery or appliances arrangements for repair and/or replacements will be made by the Owner as soon as practicable.

10.  The Owner will not be liable to the Client or any member of the Client’s party or any guests for  any temporary defect or stoppage in the supply of services to the Property nor in respect of any damage  stoppage or breakdown of any equipment, plant, machinery or appliance in or on the Property which is the result of adverse weather conditions, riot, war, strikes or other matters beyond the reasonable control of the Owner nor for any loss, damage, expense or inconvenience caused to or suffered by the Client, if the Property or one or both Gites shall be rendered unfit for purpose before the start of the rental period. In such an event, the Owner will within seven days of notification to the Client, refund to the Client all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period.  Under no circumstances shall the Owner's liability exceed the amount paid by the Client to the Owner for the rental.

11.  The Client agrees and shall ensure that each member of his/her party and any guests are made aware that the Owner will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from any accident or injury however sustained on or in or through the use of the Property, either Gite or the Facilities or any part thereof by the Client or any member(s) of his/her party or guests except as is shown to have been caused by the Owner’s negligence..

12.  The swimming pool is not supervised by a lifeguard and therefore use of the swimming pool by the Client or any member of his/her party or guests is at the Client’s risk.  In particular but without limitation  the Client accepts sole responsibility for ensuring the adequate supervision, at all times, of any children within his/her party or of guests using the swimming pool and pool area.

13. This contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and shall be deemed to have been made in England at the time the confirmation invoice is sent by the Owner to the Client.  The Parties accept the exclusive  jurisdiction of the English Courts to determine any dispute arising hereunder.
