You must leave by 10am on the last day. If your arrival will be delayed beyond 9pm on the start date of your rental period, you must contact us beforehand. If you fail to do so, you may not be able to get into the property. If you fail to arrive by 12 noon on the day after the start date of your rental period and you do not let us know you are arriving late, we may treat your booking as having been cancelled by you. In this situation, we will not refund any money you have paid.

You must not hold events (such as parties, celebrations or meetings) at the property without the advance consent of us. If you do any of these things, we can refuse to hand over the property to you, or can repossess it. If this happens, we will treat this as you cancelling the booking. In these situations you will not receive a refund of any money you have paid for your booking. And we will not be legally responsible to you as a result of this situation.
