Terms & Conditions
of Booking
2007/2008 Season
Booking Procedures
To book a
property you need to fill-in and sign our booking form which
substitutes the contract. Please state your full residential
address, home and mobile number, e-mail, preferred arrival/departure dates,
number of visitors (including the ages of any children) and the
details on which rooms you require. To reserve the property you must
pay a 50% deposit or full payment if the booking is made 4 weeks
prior to your arrival to Casa Rovigliano. We reserve the right to
rent the property to another party if we do not receive a
pre-payment. When the booking is made, we will post you the
information pack, directions to the property and instructions on
where to find the key to Casa Rovigliano.
Rental Dates and
Durations
Note that
rentals can usually start any day of week, but preferably not on
Saturday. Please check in advance. However, if Saturday
arrival/departure is essential please contact us and we’ll try to
accommodate. Rental minimum is one week. Rentals less than a week
are charged at the rate of a full week.
Rates
As advertised on
www.rovigliano.co.uk
Payment
A deposit of 50%
of the total property rental is required at the time of booking.
Payment in full is due 4 weeks before the commencement of the
holiday. Reservations made within 4 weeks of the start of the
holiday must be accompanied by payment in full. Payment can be made
securely with PayPal online on www.rovigliano.co.uk. Otherwise we
can accept cheques/postal orders/bank transfer - ask for details.
The price includes linen (excluding towels), electricity, warm
water, all taxes and initial and final cleaning. Heating costs in
winter are charged separately at £10.00 per day.
Final cleaning is included in the price, but that assumes the
property has been kept in good condition.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellation
must be advised in writing. For all bookings the following
cancellation terms apply:
- More than 4 weeks before departure, forfeiture of deposit
- Less than 4 weeks before departure, total cost.
We recommend comprehensive insurance cover which should include
cancellation cover for any reason beyond your control.
Cancellation or alternation to any booking, by us, up to and
including the date by which full payment is due may be necessary if
unforeseen events occur. We therefore reserve the right to cancel or
alter a booking prior to the date on which the balance payment is
due, or at any time in circumstances beyond our control, such as
war, threat of war, strikes, natural disasters etc. In the event of
such cancellation by us, all money paid including deposit, will be
refunded in full and there will be no further claim against us. We
will try our best to offer an alternative date or find another
similar property in the area, but cannot guarantee that this will be
possible.
Arrival/Departure
Please do
not arrive at Casa Rovigliano before 4pm on the changeover day.
Check out time is no later than 11 am unless otherwise agreed
Linen
All linen is provided (excluding towels) and beds will be made up
for your arrival. Clean linen will be left with you for use during
the second week of a two week booking.
Our Liability
Our house is inspected regularly and all responsibility will be
taken to maintain the standard of accommodation as described. Of
course you will appreciate that the delights of rural Italy
occasionally include reduced services such as electricity and water
supplies. However with the Italian couple who look after the house
just a few kilometres way, most queries can be
rectified quickly and you will be given their phone number
once the booking has been made.
Your Duty
It is the
Renter’s duty to take care of the property and its inventories. The
Renter is personally liable for damages caused by misuse of the
inventories and equipment, as well as damages caused by negligence.
Please note that electricity in Italy is very expensive as nuclear
energy is banned. Please remember to switch off the lights/fans when
you are not in the property.
Most importantly enjoy the
culture, the beauty, food and wine of Umbria & Tuscany!
