Terms and Conditions

Corfu "Villa Yvonne"
 
1.          Roger Wilcocke ("the Owner") offers the property known as "Villa Yvonne", Loutses,  Corfu for holiday rental subject to confirmation to the Rentee ("the Client")
2.          To reserve the "Property" the Client should complete and sign the booking form and return it together with payment of the initial non-refundable deposit (25% of the total rent due). Following receipt of the booking form and deposit, the Owners will send a confirmation receipt. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.
3.          The balance of the rent together with the security deposit (see clause 5) is payable not less than six weeks before the start of the rental period.  If payment is not received by the due date, the Owners reserve the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. The Client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent unless the Owners are able to re-let the property. In the event, clause 6 of the booking conditions will apply. Reservations made within 6 weeks of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking.
4.          Any chargeable expenses arising during the rental period should be settled locally with our  Managing Agent before departure.
5.          A security deposit of £100 is required in case of, for example, damage to the property or its contents. However, the sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the Client's liability to the Owners. The Owner will account to the Client for the security deposit and refund the balance due within two weeks after the rental period.
6.          Subject to clause 2 and 3 above, in the event of a cancellation, refunds of amounts will be made if the Owners are able to re-let the property and any expenses or losses incurred in so doing will be deducted from the refundable amount. The Client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive travel insurance policy (including cancellation cover) and to have full cover for the party's personal belongings, public liability etc, since these are not covered by the Owners insurance.
7.          The Rental Period shall commence at 2.00pm on the first day and finish at 10.00am on the last day. The Owner shall not be obliged to offer the accommodation before the time stated and the Client shall not be entitled to remain in occupation after the time stated.
8.          The maximum number to reside in the "property" must not exceed 8 unless the Owner has given permission.
9.          The Client agrees to be a considerate tenant and take good care of the "property" and leave it in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period. The Owner reserves the right to make a retention 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 in any way, which would case disturbance to those residents in neighbouring properties.
10.          The Client shall report to the Managing Agents without delay defects in the property or breakdown in the equipment, plant, machinery or appliances in the "property", the arrangement for repair and/or replacement will be made as soon as possible.
11.          The Owner shall not be liable to the Client:
a.          For any temporary defect or stoppage in the supply of public services to the "property" nor in respect of any equipment, plant, machinery or appliance in the "property", garden or swimming pool.
b.          For any damage or injury which is the result of adverse weather conditions, riot, War, strikes or other matters beyond the control of the Owners.
c.          For any loss, damage or inconvenience caused to or suffered by the Client if the "property" shall be destroyed or substantially damaged before the start of the Rental Period, in such event the Owner shall within seven days of notification to the Client, refund the Client all sums paid in respect of the Rental Period
12.          UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE OWNERS LIABILITY TO THE CLIENT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID TO THE OWNERS FOR THE RENTAL PERIOD.
13.          This contract shall be governed by English law in every particular including formation and interpretation and shall be deemed to have been made in England. Any proceedings arising out of or in connection with this contract may be brought in any court or competent jurisdiction in England.
