TERMS & CONDITIONS
Wildflower Cottage ~ 4884 Granville Road ~ Granville Beach, NS
For your clarity and ours, we have some simple terms and conditions regarding your booking and stay. Please read them carefully before booking. When you submit your deposit, you signify that you’ve read and accepted everything written below.
Check-in is 3:00 pm; departure is by 11:00 am.
PARTY MEMBERS
The maximum number of guests is limited to three (3) persons. The Property is on a well and septic tank system; if more people stay in our home than our septic system was designed to support, the system may overload. The Guest will be liable for damage if this happens.
The person listed on the Rental Agreement will be bound by the terms of this agreement. The Rental Applicant is considered the Lead Guest and will assume full responsibility for all members of the Rental Group throughout the rental period. Information or instructions relating to this rental will be communicated to the Rental Applicant only and not to any third-party member of the Rental Group.
PAYMENT/DEPOSIT
An advance deposit of 50% of your total rental fee is required to reserve dates. Dates are not booked until payment is made. The BALANCE OF RENT is due 45 days before arrival. If the balance is not paid by the due date, The Guest risks losing the reservation AND deposit, AND the property can be re-rented. A damage deposit is not required, but the Owner expects that if any damage occurs, The Guest will assume full responsibility.
CANCELLATION
Travelers who cancel at least 30 days before check-in will get back 100% of the amount they’ve paid. If they cancel between 14 and 30 days before check-in, they’ll get back 50%. Otherwise, they won’t get a refund.
OCCUPANCY OF THE PROPERTY
People other than those in the Guest party outlined in the rental agreement may not stay overnight on the property. Please do not exceed three persons unless you have prior approval from the Owner. Exceeding the number of stated and agreed persons will result in immediate eviction without a refund. If you are planning to have “day guests,” please let the owner know how many, as the owner reserves the right to limit the number of guests. Any other person in/on the property is the sole responsibility of the Guest.
CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY
The house and all appliances, heating, plumbing, and electrical systems will be in good working order, and any repairs will be borne by the landlord unless due to the renter’s negligence.
The Guest undertakes to:
1) Notify The Owner immediately concerning any damage and maintenance issues that require attention.
2) Keep the Property and all furniture, fixtures, fittings, chattels and effects in or around the Property in the same state of repair and condition as found at the commencement of the Rental.
PETS
No Pets are permitted on the Property under any circumstances.
SMOKING
This is a NON-SMOKING, NON-VAPING property, and smoking and vaping are not permitted in or around the property’s immediate vicinity.
CHILDREN
No children LESS THAN 12 years of age are permitted in or around the Property unless you have prior approval from the Owner.
REFUNDS
If a breakdown should occur to fundamental elements such as water systems, plumbing, electrical systems, and major appliances such as the stove or refrigerator, every effort will be made to repair or replace, or an appropriate refund will be made for the inconvenience caused. This does not apply to a system breakdown caused by misuse, such as plumbing blockages caused by inappropriate use of sanitary facilities. The Owner is neither liable nor will provide a refund for any stoppage of electrical services caused by extreme weather or circumstances beyond her control. Similarly, there will be no refunds for inclement weather, power outages, Wi-Fi interruptions, road conditions, illnesses, conditions at neighbouring properties, or any nuisance afforded by the natural elements of the location, such as flying insects or the wildlife population.
No refunds will be given for late arrivals or early departures.
OTHER CONDITIONS OF BOOKING
The Guest shall abide by these Terms and Conditions of Rental and any further instructions contained in the individual Guest Guide and any additional information and instructions as shall be supplied in the Property or by The Owner. The landlord retains the right to enter the premise at reasonable times, and upon reasonable notice, for reasonable and necessary purposes.
GUEST RESPONSIBILITIES
The Guest represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees with The Owner that they will use the Property and its facilities by The Terms and Conditions above and the information provided and that they do so at their own risk and that they indemnify and save The Owner harmless from any personal injury, sickness or death, loss or damage, however, caused, to person or property of The Guest, their family, or guests, before during or after the time of occupancy. Further, they accept full responsibility for the use of the Property and agree to pay for any damage other than for everyday wear and tear.
CANCELLATION BY US
In the very unlikely event that we have to cancel your stay with us (for example, severe illness or other emergencies, damage to the house by fire, storm etc., or any other unforeseen circumstances), we will, of course, refund your entire deposit. Our liability to you is limited to the amount you have paid us. We can’t be held liable for losses you may incur concerning plane and/or other travel or alternative accommodation. However, we will do our best to help you find alternative accommodation.
I appreciate your cooperation.
