Conditions:

1. The Terms and Conditions of Hire shall constitute a binding contract between the Hirer and the Owners.

2. The Hirer shall book Hillocks Barn and agree to pay to the Owners the Rent in accordance with the provisions of the Conditions of Hire. If payment is not received in full, the Owners shall be free to cancel the booking, by giving notice to the Hirer and to retain all monies paid by the Hirer and related to the Premises and to claim all losses and expenses incurred (including the loss of rent commission and otherwise) incurred by the Owners, from the Hirer.

3. The Owners will release the Hillocks Barn keys to the Hirer on the day of arrival.

4. Holidays commence at 3.00 pm on the arrival day and terminate at 10.00 am on the departure day.

5. The Hirer will pay a £50.00 non-returnable deposit and will pay the remainder of the rent in advance of the rental, as agreed with the Owners.

6. The Hirer will:

a. not make any alterations or additions to the Premises, the decorations, furniture, nor deface the Premises, and will keep and leave the premises and the furniture clean and tidy and in the same state of repair and condition as they are in on the day the Hirer takes up occupation, and not remove any of the Furniture from its position in the Premises;

b. not do anything on the Premises which may be or tend to be a nuisance, annoyance or cause damage to the owners or occupiers of any neighbouring or adjoining property;

c. use the Premises for the purpose only of a private holiday residence for the number of persons indicated in the website and the Owners reserve the right to withhold and/or withdraw the keys of the Premises if such number is exceeded. The Hirer will not assign, sub let or part with or share possession of the Premises or any part of them under any circumstances;

d. permit the Owners to have Access to the Premises at all reasonable times;

e. return to the Owners all the keys of the Premises on the last day of the holiday as stipulated in the Booking Form. In the event of any failure by the Hirer to do so the Hirer is liable to the Owners for payment on demand of the full cost of any replacement keys and/or locks to the Premises.

7. It is agreed by the Owners and the Hirer that the Premises are to be occupied by the Hirer for a holiday home as mentioned in the Housing Act 1988 Schedule I Paragraph 9 and the Hirer acknowledges that the tenancy granted by this Agreement is not an Assured Tenancy.

8. Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information given either orally or written and all representations are made in good faith, no such representations will create any liability on the Owner’s part.

9. Some of the information on our website provides information on facilities outside the Premises. Changes to external facilities are outside our control and therefore these details cannot be relied upon absolutely.

10. Once the Owners have accepted a booking, the booking can be changed to another date providing the new dates are agreeable to the Owners.

11. If any clause contained in these conditions is held by any competent authority to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part the validity of the other clauses and the remainder of the clause shall not be affected.
