Advice and Assistance
It is the owners' policy that they will meet the client on arrival and will explain the various aspects of the accommodation. In addition, the accommodation is situated within about 30 yards of the owners home and therefore any advice or assistance required should normally be available in a reasonable timescale.
Children
Although, in principle, children are allowed the following should be borne in mind. The multi-fuel stove, if used, could constitute a hazard to smaller children and those unaccustomed to the dangers of a fire within a room. In addition, the stairs within the house are quite steep (see below) and although child-proof gates (top and bottom) are provided, this should be carefully considered before booking.
If you would like to bring a child it would be wise to discuss this with us prior to booking. To do this go to the "Contacting us" page where you can send us an email with your telephone number on which we would be able to contact you.
Pets
Pets are not allowed within the accommodation except by special arrangement.
In the event that it is agreed that you may bring a pet it is important that it is kept under control to avoid any damage to property or nuisance to other people.
Smoking
Smoking is not permitted within the accommodation at any time.

Safety
Although directions will be given on the use of all facilities on arrival, it is the clients' responsibility to familiarise themselves with all aspects of safety within and around the premises, including:
Use of wood-burning stove. It is important to remember that these become very hot and should not be touched directly. Tools are supplied for use with the stove and it should be kept closed at all times when in operation to eliminate any danger of fire caused by sparks.
Fire precautions. Fire alarms are fitted and will have been tested before occupancy: they should never be moved or interfered with. 2 fire extinguishers are provided: 1 downstairs and 1 upstairs. In addition, a fire blanket is provided downstairs. The client should acquaint themselves with the position and operation of this equipment.
Fire escape. Fire escape is provided on the downstairs through the main doors and upstairs via the large window at the top of the stairs which can be fully opened. Directions will be given on the use of this window on arrival.
Stairs. The stairs to the bedroom are of the "alternate tread" type which, while perfectly safe when used correctly, should be treated with care at all times.
Liability for damage
The client will be held responsible for any damage to the property or its fixtures and fittings during their rental period.

Payment of the booking fee must be made within 2 weeks of the offer of accommodation and the balance on arrival. Payment can be by cash, cheque or credit/debit card in Euros or Sterling.
