Blue Horizons Terms and Conditions

By making a booking, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions and therefore entering into a legally binding contract. You therefore agree that you are over the age of 18 and are able to enter into a legally binding contract.

Please ensure you read and fully understand these terms and conditions. If anything is unclear, please contact us at bookings@bluehorizonslyme.com so we can explain in further detail to avoid any misunderstandings.

All bookings are subject to the following terms and conditions.

In these terms and conditions, “you” and “your” will mean the individual making the booking. “Us”, “we”, and “our” will mean the owners of Blue Horizons. “Blue Horizons” will mean the property.  “Your party” will mean you, the individual making the booking, plus any guests and pets that come with you.

A contract between you and us will come into existence when the booking is confirmed. Your notification of this will be a booking confirmation issued by email. The contract binds you and all the members of your party. It is your responsibility to ensure that all members of your party follow the terms of the contract set out in these terms and conditions. You will be responsible for any charges incurred by a breach of this contract by any member of your party.

Any violation of this contract, at any point (before or during your stay) and by any member of your party, may result in termination of the booking without refund.

Any information given by us in writing to you that contradicts these terms and conditions will supersede these terms and conditions.

Payment

A deposit is payable at the time of booking. This deposit is 50% of the accommodation price and the cleaning fee combined. The remaining amount, plus the £150 refundable security deposit, will be charged seven days before check-in.

If the seven day payment fails, we will contact you to resolve this. If the full amount has not been received by five days before check-in, your booking may be cancelled without refund.

Bookings made less than seven days before check-in must be paid in full, plus the £150 refundable security deposit.

Cancellation

You must notify us of a cancellation as early as possible. Cancellations must be notified using the form at bluehorizonslyme.com/cancel. If for any reason this form is not accessible, contact us at bookings@bluehorizonslyme.com.

If you submit the cancellation form:

Up to and including 30 days before check-in, you will be refunded in full for any amount paid.

Up to and including 7 days before check-in, you will be refunded 50% of any amount paid.

After that, you will not be refunded.

We strongly advise that you take out comprehensive travel insurance to cover cancellations. If you choose not to, then you accept responsibility for any loss that you may incur due to your cancellation.

Your booking will not be cancelled by us except in exceptional circumstances beyond our control. We do however reserve the right to cancel a booking without providing a reason. Notification will be given of the cancellation as soon as possible and we will promptly refund all payments made. Our liability for cancellation is limited to payments made to us.
