Terms, conditions and other useful information

Bookings

St Anthony's Cottage is available for booking throughout the year. Bookings are normally for a week or a whole number of weeks in the high season. A week commences on Sunday (between 15:30 and 18:00) and finishes on a Sunday (not later than 10:00). The exceptions are the two weeks over the Christmas holidays, which are arranged to ensure that Christmas and New Year fall in the middle of these letting weeks.

Adherence to the arrival and departure times is important to ensure thorough cleaning can be effected between guests leaving and arriving. Low season mid-week to mid-week bookings, long weekends or short breaks, are available. Long weekends or short breaks attract one price (quoted in brackets) when the cottage is occupied for 4 nights or fewer. Breaks of 5, 6 or 7 nights attract the weekly price. Where a low season week and a high season week are adjacent long weekend or short breaks are not available which would occupy any days of the high season week. Where two consecutive weeks have different prices the cost of the break will be the average of the prices for each of the weeks across which the long weekend or short break is booked.

For advance bookings, that is bookings made at least 9 weeks before the start of the holiday, an initial booking will be provisional and held for seven days. The booking will be confirmed on receipt of a 30% deposit. If the payment is received later than seven days after the booking, confirmation will only be made if the dates remain available, otherwise the payment will be returned. A further payment of the remaining 70% of the cost of the holiday plus a GBP50 returnable deposit against breakages and other costs (e.g. telephone) must be received 8 weeks prior to commencement of the holiday.

All bookings made less than 8 weeks before the start of the holiday will be considered firm bookings and must be fully paid within 72 hours of the booking having been made. If full payment, i.e. the cost of the holiday plus a GBP50 returnable deposit, is not received within 72 hours the booking will become unconfirmed and the dates will become available for letting again.

Cheques relating to bookings and deposits should be made payable to: "Zephen Properties Limited". Direct deposits may be made to our bank account as follows: Lloyds TSB Private Bank, 50, Grosvenor Street, London W1K 3LF, Sort Code 30-16-74, Account Number 00288322, Account Name "Zephen Properties Limited".

Please see cancellation terms below.

Linen

The cost of the holiday includes, for each week of occupancy, a clean set of sheets and a set of pillowcases for each bed; towels for each guest; and tea towels. Towels for outdoor use (e.g. beach use) are not provided and should be brought by the guests as required.

Fuel

St Anthony’s Cottage has oil-fired central heating and a wood-burning stove. All other devices are electrical. The cost of the holiday includes the provision of all fuels.

Telephone costs, breakages and losses

The cost of telephone calls, breakages and losses will be deducted from the GBP50 deposit. Any remaining amount will be returned within 14 days from the end of the holiday.

Consumables (other than fuel)

A courtesy basic starter pack of consumables will be available on arrival but otherwise it is your responsibility to provide all consumables you will require for the duration of your stay.

Restricted mobility

St Anthony’s Cottage is a traditional Dorset cottage and while it has been refurbished to a high standard the basic structure is original and largely unchanged. It is a three-storey property and access is via original, narrow and steep staircases. It is generally not therefore suitable for anyone who has great difficulty with mobility except that there is a double bedroom and a shower room on the ground floor with three steps to negotiate between them.

Restrictions on smoking and pets

St Anthony’s Cottage is a no smoking environment. Sorry, pets are not allowed.

External storage

A small, secure shed is available for storage of equipment. Solid fuel for the wood-burning stove is stored to the rear of the property.

Garden furniture

There is a barbecue, teak table and benches in the garden.

Local assistance

A housekeeper, who lives locally, is available to provide any assistance that may be necessary. Contact details are available at the cottage.

Cancellation

The initial booking fee of 30% of the cost of the holiday will be forfeit in the event of a cancellation. The initial booking fee will also be forfeit if the full amount is not received 8 weeks prior to the start of the holiday and the accommodation will be considered available for re-letting. If cancellation occurs after full payment has been received a refund of 70% of the cost of the holiday will be made only if it has been possible to re-let the accommodation.
