2. PAYMENT
A non-returnable deposit of £100 is payable at the time of booking*.

3. CANCELLATION
If you have to cancel your holiday, you should notify us immediately. If we can re-let, we will make a refund. If we are unable to re-let, you will be responsible for the full balance. (We therefore recommend that you take out cancellation insurance). If before your arrival your stay has to be cancelled due to government regulations, or for a medical reason connected directly with the current Covid-19 outbreak we will provide a full refund. If any of your group develop possible Covid-19 symptoms during your stay we ask that you return home immediately and we will give a pro-rata refund.
