Reservations
Reservations may be made in advance through us directly by phone on 07903214958 or by email at swayholidays@outlook.com or through any other site we may choose to advertise through from time to time such as Facebook. Should you make your booking though a site, your booking will also be subject to this third party’s terms and conditions. A separate contractual relationship will be created between you and this other third party and we cannot be held liable for any errors, actions, omissions or incorrect charges that may be made by the third party.
Should you approach us directly to make your booking, we will require certain information from you including, but not limited to, your name, address, contact telephone number, and email address.
Your request to us to make a reservation for you will be an offer, but whether we accept any such request will be for us to decide at our discretion. Only if and when we tell you that we accept your request for a particular reservation and we give you a booking reference will there be a booking. Only that acceptance of the booking will form a binding contract between you and us for the reservation of the Holiday Home(s).
You may change your reservation at any time prior to arrival (subject to the cancellation provisions set out in clause 4 below). We will use all reasonable endeavours to accommodate any changes requested but give no guarantee that any or all changes can be accommodated.
You may request additional nights at the Holiday Home at any time during your stay. We will use all reasonable endeavours to meet such a request, but we cannot guarantee this will be possible. If we can meet any request, we will accept the request as a booking and that booking will then be a binding contract between you and us.
If you have any special requirements pertaining to a disability or allergy, you should inform us of these requirements before making your booking. We will discuss the facilities with you at this time to ensure the Holiday Home is suitable for your needs. The booking will only be confirmed if we send a booking reference to you after this time.
Fees and Payment
When you request a reservation and we quote any Rate(s), the Rate(s) will apply only to the provision of accommodation and the facilities which we include as standard, unless we specifically state otherwise. Additional charges will apply for other Services as further detailed in clause 7 below. We will inform you of the Rates payable for such additional Services on request when you arrive at the Holiday Home.
Subject to clause 3.3 below, and unless we agree a different arrangement with you, you will be required to pay a deposit in advance at the time of booking. The full balance shall be payable one month before check in.
You must also provide us with a security deposit and £30 booking fee (booking fee non-refundable) at the time of booking to provide surety against any damages to the Holiday Home. Should the Holiday Home be left in the same condition at check out as was during check in, and no breakages or damages have occurred, we shall return this deposit within 14 days of check out, by the same means in which the payment was made.
The Holiday Home is payable by PayPal or card payment. Where you are using PayPal, no credit or debit card information is provided to us and completion of the transaction will be subject to you agreeing to PayPal’s terms and conditions. A separate contractual relationship is created between you and PayPal and we cannot be held liable for any errors, actions, omissions or incorrect charges that may be made by PayPal.
All other Services are payable in cash to the facilities provider prior to checking out from the Holiday Home.
We may alter any of our Rates without prior notice but if the Rate of any Service increases between the time when you make a booking and the date when the booked accommodation or other Service is to be provided, any increase in the Rate will not apply to your booking.
Whether these Terms and Conditions require payment upon booking or on check out or at any other time, you must pay in full for any reservation booked and will not be entitled to any refund, except as stated in clause 3.8.
Where clause 4 specifically says that you will be entitled to a (full or partial) refund, or where you become entitled to any refund either as a result of our breach of these Terms & Conditions or as a Consumer under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or other consumer protection legislation, we will make a refund to you as set out in clause 4 or as required by such legislation.
Cancellations
You may cancel a reservation without charge if you give us prior notice of at least 60 days before the earliest check in time we have given you for your reservation. If you cancel under this clause 4.1, we will refund to you in full any sum (including, but not limited to, any deposit) you paid in advance and you will not then owe us anything.
If you cancel but do not give us prior notice as detailed in clause 4.1 we will be entitled to withhold any payments made in advance for the booking, by way of a late cancellation charge.
We may, at any time before you check in, cancel a reservation booked by you if the required accommodation and/or personnel and/or other resources necessary for the provision of the booking are not available due to any cause outside our reasonable control. If we cancel a reservation in such circumstances, we will offer you alternative accommodation of the same standard or better if it is available. If it is not available or we offer it to you and you decline it, we will refund to you in full any deposit or other advance payment that you have made to us for your reservation.
