-
Rental agreement
required: Before you use the Lodge you will be asked to complete a rental agreement.
-
Booking,
payment and cancellations: Within a
week of booking you will be asked to pay a 50% deposit.
We're sorry, but if you cancel at any time after that, your deposit
will be non refundable. Payment for the balance of your stay is due on
arrival.
-
Number
of occupants: We'd love to say,
"The more the merrier", but have to limit the number of occupants
in the Lodge house to 6 and in the cottage to 2. Tents and caravans in
the grounds are also not permitted… no cheating!
-
Arrivals
and departures: Not before 2pm on the
date of arrival or after 11am on the date of departure. Depending on
other bookings, early arrival and/or late departure may be arranged
with our agents but could involve an extra charge.
-
Telephone,
fax and internet: Most guests use
their own cell phones so the telephone in the Lodge is toll barred.
Local calls are free. Incoming faxes can be received, but most guests
work now by email.
-
Smoking:
The owners enjoy a cigar with the best
of them but make a point of doing so only outside. So, strictly no
smoking indoors and care please as to what you do with cigarettes,
matches, etc, outside.
-
Pets:
Unfortunately one person’s pet is
another person’s allergy so we have to say no pets I’m afraid,
even outside.
-
Damage
to or loss from the Lodge: There is
really only one basic rule. If you break it, take it or lose it, you
have to pay for it.
-
Injury
or loss to you: If you are hurt or
suffer loss or damage while in residence, we have no liability. These
things are down to you entirely.
-
Cleaning
Fish: We enjoy the preparation of the
catch as much as anyone, but fish cannot be cleaned in the house or
the cottage. The smoke house has a bench area for this but must be
cleaned after each use in the interest of hygiene.
-
Outbuildings:
Apart from the smoke house and the cottage, access to outbuildings is
not permitted. Although it sounds strange, for safety’s sake the
smoke house should not be used to smoke fish, and alternative
arrangements for this are set out in the guest information in the
Lodge.
-
Rubbish
disposal: We ask that if you are in
residence on a Tuesday you put out your rubbish for collection.
Details are in the guest information in the Lodge. This is just in
case you miss such little chores!
-
Library:
This is a special element of the
Lodge. Our requests concerning the library are contained in the guest
information in the Lodge and in the library itself. Generally we ask
that you use and enjoy the library, but leave it as you found it. If
you’d like to add to it you are welcome to do so.
-
Extra Service: The
Lodge is normally thoroughly cleaned and the bedrooms and
bathrooms dressed with fresh linen before you arrive. However,
if you need the place cleaned or fresh linen during your stay,
that can be arranged at your request. Details are in the guest
information on site. An additional charge applies.
