Terms & Conditions

We want your stay at Dimmet to be a relaxing, enjoyable and unique experience. We know no one likes small print but there are some terms and conditions that we must bring your attention to. By booking with us, you are confirming your agreement to these terms and conditions.

Holiday Let Terms and Conditions

General

This is a legally binding contract between the property owner, Mr & Mrs Andrew Warren, Dimmet and the holidaymaker. The property owner is also referred to as “we” and “us”.

The holidaymaker is the person who signs the booking form or, in the case of online booking, the person who makes the online payment. This person is responsible for ensuring all members of the holiday party accept and adhere to these terms and conditions. The holidaymaker is also referred to as “you”.

The property referred to being Dimmet, 15 Stallards, Braunton, North Devon, EX33 1BP.

Bookings

A booking deposit is payable within 1 day of the provisional booking being taken. The booking is taken on a provisional basis until the deposit has been paid in full and funds cleared through the banking system (where appropriate). The booking then becomes confirmed. Until the booking is confirmed, it can be cancelled at any time without prior notice.

The balance of the rental charge, along with any breakage deposit, is payable not less than 4 weeks prior to the start of the holiday. Failure to pay the deposit or balance in full by the due dates will constitute a cancellation of the holiday by the holidaymaker. Please be sure to note the due dates of these payments as reminders are not routinely issued.

Bookings made less than 4 weeks prior to the arrival date must be paid in full at the time of booking.

After Booking

You will be sent a Welcome Pack including initial instructions, these terms and conditions and a map and directions to ensure you have everything you need.

Cancellation by the Holidaymaker

Cancellation of the booking by the holidaymaker should be made in writing and addressed to:

Andrew & Emma Warren – emma@dimmet.co.uk or to PO Box 124, Chard, Somerset, TA20 9BT

Cancellation by you will be subject to a cancellation fee equal to 25% of the total holiday price except when cancellation occurs within four weeks of the date of your holiday in which case the fee will equal 100% of the total holiday price unless we are able to rebook the property.

In the event of a cancellation, we will attempt to re-let the property and if successful, a discretionary payment may be made at the owner’s discretion. However, we strongly recommend you take out holiday cancellation insurance.

Cancellation by the Property Owner

The property owner will endeavour to make sure the stated property is available for the dates contracted. In the unlikely event the property becomes not available and the property owner has to cancel the booking, the holidaymaker shall be entitled to a full refund. The property owner shall only be liable to return the monies received less any administration costs. No compensation or consequential losses shall be paid.

Miscellaneous

Whilst every care is taken to provide a true and accurate description of the property, over time, alterations are made and some things do change. The holidaymaker accepts that no refunds are available for such discrepancies.

The property owner reserves the right to enter the property, at a reasonable time, in the event of an emergency or remedial repair work being required. There may also be window cleaning and gardening undertaken during your stay.

The property owner is entitled to ask the holidaymaker to leave the property without any refund if, in the property owner’s opinion, the behaviour of the holidaymaker and/or his/her party is unacceptable.

The property owner reserves the right to refuse entry to anyone, who in the property owner’s opinion is not suitable to or capable of taking charge of the property.

The property owner reserves the right to ask the holidaymaker and their party to leave the property, without refund, should the behaviour of the holidaymaker and/or their party be considered by the property owner to be unreasonable.

Number of Guests

The maximum number of people entitled to stay at this property is 5 and furthermore, only those people named on the booking form are entitled to stay. If it is found that more people than agreed are using the property, this will be considered a breach of contract and the holidaymaker and his/her party will be asked to leave immediately without any refund. Sub-letting or assignation of the let is prohibited.

No Smoking Policy

Dimmet is subject to a strict NO SMOKING POLICY and pollution or damage from smoking will result in a charge to ensure the property is returned to a satisfactory standard. Smoking outside the property is permitted but guests are responsible for the safe and tidy disposal of their cigarette butts, please do not litter the surrounding area.

General Code of Conduct

Whilst we are fairly relaxed and want you to fully enjoy your time with us, part of the attraction of staying at Dimmet is that it is in a quiet residential area, so common sense regarding loud music and parties should apply. No litter should be left in the vicinity of the property or anywhere else on site and please respect the natural environment and neighbours. No pets are permitted on the site or in the house, unless arranged with us in advance. Please leave your accommodation and the surroundings as you found it.

Fire Policy

No fires shall be lit other than in the wood burning stove provided.


Arrival and Departure Time

Every effort will be made to have the property available from 4pm on the day of arrival. The property must be vacated by 10am on the day of departure. Late departure will result in an additional charge being made. Information about keys and how to collect them will be provided once full payment has been received.

Liability

The property owner takes no responsibility for the personal possessions of the holidaymaker or the holidaymaker’s party. Vehicles and possessions are left entirely at the risk of the holidaymaker.
Dimmet, Andrew & Emma Warren and Beetham Farm Partners accept no responsibility for injury incurred anywhere on the site or in the property.

Children must be supervised at all times.

Cleaning

We would like to think the holidaymaker and party would treat the property as they would their own home and at the end of the holiday the property is left in a clean and tidy condition. The property owner retains the right to make a £100 additional charge for cleaning, which will be deducted from the deposit, should the property not be left in a similar condition to the way it was found at the start of the holiday.

Breakages

The holidaymaker should make every effort to keep the property, fixtures and fittings and all contents in the same state of repair and condition as at the start of the holiday. Any accidental damage or breakages should be reported to the property owner (or their representative) prior to departure. The property owner retains the right to make an additional charge for damage and breakages although it should be noted that minor breakages and reasonable wear and tear (in the opinion of the property owner) will not be charged for.

Complaints

Every endeavour is made to ensure your stay with us is memorable for all the right reasons. However, we do recognise that from to time things do go wrong. In these circumstances, it is the responsibility of the holidaymaker to make any such problem known to the property owner (or their representative) immediately it becomes apparent, thereby giving the property owner the opportunity to correct the situation. Unless this procedure is followed, no subsequent claim will be entertained.

The property owner will make every endeavour to rectify any identified problems as soon as is reasonably possible.

Return of Breakage Deposit

If a breakage deposit is taken, the deposit minus any deductions, will be returned to you within 2 weeks of the departure.
