We are pleased to tell you that bookings made through Unique Cottages for all cottages sleeping no more than seven persons (excluding babies) with rentals up to £300 per week* qualify for FULL REFUND COVER for those resident in the UK and aged 75 or under at the commencement of the holiday. If cancellation is caused through death, injury**, sickness**, or call to jury service of the hirer, or any close member of his/her family***, or any person registered with the Agent at the time of booking who is travelling within the same party, then Unique Cottages undertakes to refund the deposit and balance if paid (less £25 administration fee) on production of documentary proof showing cancellation is due to one of the above circumstances.
* Should your rent at any one property for one week exceed £300 (for two weeks £600, for three weeks £900 etc.) the following payment should be added to the deposit at time of booking or qualification for full refund cover does not apply.
- Up to £540 excess £5
- Between £541 and £720 excess £10
- Between £721 and £1000 excess £15
- Over £1000 excess £20
** The following are NOT covered by the cancellation policy: pregnancy or related illness, epidemic or pandemic. Any medical condition or illness diagnosed or known about before, or at the time of, booking. Any self-inflicted illness or injury. Any illness or injury which, in the opinion of the Agent, is not serious enough to prevent the person taking the holiday.
*** Family comprises husband, wife and their children, long-term partner, father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother and sister.
Please remember a reservation is a legal contract. We strongly recommend you ensure you are adequately covered by Insurance for your rental.
While every effort will be made to re-let a cancellation not covered by insurance, it is important to remember that if a substitute tenant cannot be found, the first named person on the booking remains responsible for the period of the tenancy, plus the cost of any additional advertising which may be necessary.
Please note the above cancellation refund plan does NOT cover any event where our obligations are prevented or affected by reason of force majeure. Please refer to our terms & conditions for further information. |
