2023 Bookings

Laundry and cleaning

We provide all the bedlinen, bath towels and pool towels, and two cleaners and a gardener make sure everything is right for the start of your stay. We do now ask for a £150 contribution towards the cleaning and laundry bill.

Payments and cancellation

This is important, so do give it a read. We will include this with the booking information by email:

We thought long and hard about our cancellation policy after the pandemic wiped out most of our 2020 and all of our 2021 bookings. In the old days we never had any cancellations. So these were our terms for 2022 and it all worked out fine, but please make sure that you’re happy to accept these for 2023 before paying a deposit and the balance. It may be that for you and your party the risk of not being able to come to the Farmhouse may be too high.

To secure the booking there is a non refundable deposit of 1/3 of the rental. We will email you our UK bank details. The balance will be due 90 days before the start of the holiday and do please make a note to pay the balance then. It would make things simpler for all if the £150 charge for the cleaning and laundry is added to the balance.

In the event of a cancellation, we will refund a proportion of the rental amount as follows:

• 60-90 days’ notice: we will refund 50% of the total rental amount
• 45-59 days’ notice: we will refund 1/3 of the total rental amount
• 0-45 days’ notice: there will be no refunds

The main risk would be that if you are not able to come due to a Covid or travel related issue, such as the French border being closed or someone being too unwell to travel. Obviously there is less risk for people coming from within the EU than from the UK, but it is not for us to prioritise bookings from potential guests based on where they live.

Note that we will not offer to carry forward any booking to another date in the event that there is a cancellation.

Our firm intention is to keep renting out the Farmhouse privately. We have no plans to use Airbnb or booking dot com or to put the house on with a rental agency, so that is why we can’t be too lax with our refund policy.
