Terms and Conditions

General

The contract is between you, the person who is renting Tigh Lachie and the owners of Tigh Lachie.

Your responsibilities

You must keep the holiday accommodation at Tigh Lachie and all furniture and fittings in the same state of repair and condition as at the commencement of the holiday. You must leave the premises in the same state of cleanliness and general order in which you found it on your arrival. You will be responsible for all breakages, damage or loss to the property during your rental period and will be responsible for paying appropriate compensation in the event of any breakages, damage or loss. You should report any items accidentally broken or damaged prior to your departure from the cottage (The odd broken glass, plate or bowl is not an issue but burns by people who should not be smoking in the cottages or pets that chew furniture would require compensation). Please also report any problems or failures in a timely manner so that it can be dealt with as soon as possible.

Formation of the contract

Before making a booking please ensure there is availability either by contacting the owners or by checking the online availability charts. Thereafter a non-refundable deposit of £100 is required to secure your booking. Acknowledgement of receipt of the deposit will be sent by email. No booking shall be for longer than 3 weeks unless by prior arrangement. Sub-letting is strictly prohibited. The number of guests and pets must be stated at the time of booking. Overnight guests are permitted by prior arrangement only.

Payment

The balance is due 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the holiday unless previously arranged with the owner. Failure to pay the balance on time will constitute cancellation and cancellation charges may become payable. If the booking is less than 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the holiday the full balance of the holiday is payable at the time of booking unless previously arranged. Out with these arrangements payment may be made in full at the time of booking.

Cancellation by Tigh Lachie

In the unlikely event Tigh Lachie are forced to cancel the reservation (for reasons out with our control such as fire, flood, etc) we will inform you as soon as possible. We will also attempt to find alternative accommodation of a similar standard and location. If we are unable to provide acceptable alternative accommodation Tigh Lachie will refund all monies paid and shall be under no liability. In the event we have to cancel due to being closed because of Government restrictions that fall during your booked holiday with us we will refund you in full any monies you have paid to us.

Cancellation by you, the person who is renting the cottage.

If the cancellation is more than 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the holiday only the deposit will be lost. If the cancellation is within 4 weeks of the commencement of the holiday then the full cost of the booking is due. Due to the potential cost of cancellation we strongly advise that you take out holiday insurance. As well as holiday cancellation and curtailment insurance, guests are recommended to take out holiday insurance cover to cover loss or damage to personal effects. Vehicles, accessories and vehicle contents are left at the owner’s own risk. The owners will not be responsible for any loss, damage or personal injury not caused through the fault of the proprietor.
