1 OUR HOLIDAY CONTRACT “we, us or our” means the owners of Westland flats. “you, your or hirer” means the person signing the booking application form.
When you would like to make a holiday booking, you must sign a booking application form to say that you accept these conditions of booking. This contract is effective from when we receive your completed application form and a booking confirmation is issued by us. For last minute bookings the contract is effective from when we successfully process your card payment. Your contract with us is made on the terms of this Contract, under English law and under the control of the English Courts alone.
2 PAYING FOR YOUR HOLIDAY You pay a deposit of 50% of the holiday cost when you send us your booking application form. If we accept your application and within one to three weeks of the application, we will send a holiday confirmation showing how much you owe us. You must pay the amount shown on the confirmation to reach us at least 14 days before the start date of your holiday. If you don’t or if any payment does not clear, we will treat your booking as cancelled and charge you a cancellation charge of the total outstanding cost of your holiday. A full invoice will be sent to you prior to your holiday. For bookings accepted within 28 days of the start of your holiday the full holiday cost is required. The Tariff for 2022 was set on 1st November 2021 on the basis that the annual rate of inflation does not exceed 10%. However should this be exceeded on the date your holiday starts, any tax become due or V.A.T. become payable then we reserve the right to make a surcharge to the holiday cost. The prices in this brochure apply at the time of publication (1st November 2021), but we do change prices from time to time for new bookings only. Prices can go up or down.
3 IF YOU CANCEL YOUR HOLIDAY If you want to cancel your booking or part of it please write to us at ‘Westland Flats’ the letter must, wherever possible be signed by the same person who signed the booking application form, the deposit is then forfeited and a charge equalling the outstanding amount is payable, however providing the accommodation is re-let any monies recovered less £25 expenses will be returned. The person who signed the booking form is responsible for paying this charge. We are unable to give a refund for any absence. Note: If you have taken out a cancellation insurance policy, you may be able to claim for the cancellation charge.
