2. To reserve ‘the Property’, the client should complete and sign the ‘Booking Form’ and return it together with the initial payment of the non-refundable deposit (40% of the total rent due). Following receipt of the booking form and deposit, the Owner will send a confirmation statement to the Client. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.

3. The balance of the rent is payable not less than six weeks before the start of the rental period. If payment is not received by the due date, the Owner reserves the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. The Client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent unless the Owner is able to re-let the Property. In this event, clause 4 of these booking conditions will apply. Reservations made within the six weeks of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking.

4. Subject to clause 3 above, in the event of a cancellation, refunds of amounts paid will be made if the Owner is able to re-let the Property and any expenses or losses incurred in doing so will be deducted from the refundable amount.

The Client also agrees not to act in any way that would cause disturbance not only to other apartments, but also to neighbouring properties.
