    RENTALS AND CHARGES
    To secure a reservation you need to pay a deposit payment of 30% of the total rental. A credit or debit card payment secures a reservation. On receipt of your deposit, booking fee and any other relevant charges, the Company will confirm your reservation in writing. You are then responsible for the balance of the rental, which is due no later than 12 weeks prior to stay date.
    Please note there is a MINIMUM RENTAL charge of £ 325.00
  • Please read our terms and conditions of booking below.
    Payments: by credit card, debit card or Iban/Swift. Should any ‘extra’ charges be raised against us by your bank ( i.e. default or bank administration charges) they will be passed to you and you will be liable to reimburse us in respect of such charges within 7 days. Overseas visitors may pay by credit card which we will charge in sterling.

    Non receipt of payment: If we do not receive payment by date requested, we will treat it as a cancellation. In which case we will be entitled to keep all of the deposit already paid. If we do not cancel straight away because you have promised to make payment, you will be liable for cancellation charges, depending on the date Waters End treats your booking as cancelled. Any charges to the booking will incur an administration charge of £25.00.

If you cannot take your reservation and the booking cannot be re-let, or you terminate your stay before completion, you are still liable to pay for the booking in full, even if we have not yet received your balance. If we do succeed in re-letting the booking, you are no longer liable for the balance, or we will refund it to you if you have paid it, less an administration fee of 25% of the total booking.
    Please note that your deposit is not refundable under any circumstances. We would strongly recommend that you take out cancellation insurance to cover this cost.

Great, relaxing holiday! Lovely, clean, spacious house, wonderful landscape, Jill and Maurice were always there to help and advice! We are a family of six with four kids between six and 14 and everybody had fun! Chicken to feed and horses to pet right in front of our door and tons of things to see and do just within short driving distances. Thanks again everything!

Excellent rural stay

5 of 5
Submitted: November 29, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
We were a party of four. The attention to detail was second to none, the log fire and fruit cake was most welcoming. Despite the UK wet weather we had a wonderful time. Jill and Maurice were brilliant hosts. Looking forward to visiting again.
