- If there is evidence of pets after your stay you will be charged a cleaning fee.
No Parties or Events Policy:
- Our home is designed to comfortably accommodate a family of 7 (up to 10 very soon!) and is perfect for enjoying meals, celebrations and quality time together. We welcome small gatherings for lunch or dinner, provided the total number of guests does not exceed 10 and their stay is not prolonged.
- To ensure the comfort of our neighbours and the care of our property, parties, events, or large gatherings are strictly prohibited. This includes:
- Loud music or amplified sound at any time.
- Activities that may cause disturbances to neighbours, especially during quiet hours (after 10pm, before 7am)
- Inviting more people than permitted without prior approval.
Furniture:
Please do not re-organise the placement of furniture anywhere in the house.
We reserve the right to terminate the stay without refund if this policy is violated. Thank you for respecting our home and our community.
Additional Notes
Stained Glass Window: please be gentle with the Lady the Lake! She’s an original artwork from a local artist & previous owner of this home. She is quite old and also quite frail! Please refrain from touching it from either side, leaning on it or playing ball near it outside as we’d like to preserve it as long as possible!
Parking: please do not try to park vehicles or boats under the side balcony, as it is difficult to navigate past the balcony post. There is ample parking for 2 cars on the driveway. You are welcome to park in front of the house on the road also.
Spillages: if anything spills on the vinyl tiled flooring, please clean it up quickly to prevent damage. If it’s lots of water / liquid and a wipe or tea-towel isn’t enough, there’s a mop in the laundry or you can grab a towel from the linen cupboard next to the dining table to absorb it. Please throw it into the laundry basket downstairs.
Awning: the balcony dining area near the BBQ features an electric awning that can open out & retract. The toggle switch is located to the left of the balcony door nearest the outdoor dining area. Under no circumstances should it be opened or left out in anything over the lightest winds or rain! You’ll see it move around and creak in the wind, and it will collect rain water if it is left out – excessive strain will break it.
