Booking Process. We ask for 50% of the total price to book the property and the remaining 50% one month prior to arrival. If a tenancy is cancelled over four months prior to a booking, 50% of the deposit will be returned. If the booking is cancelled four to one month prior to arrival, 25% of the deposit will be returned. If the booking is cancelled following payment of the full amount, and the tenancy cannot be re-let, you will remain liable to pay the full amount of the agreed rental. We therefore recommend that you take out travel insurance to insure against cancellation.
