The one-bedroom apartment is situated on the ground floor of a former parsonage (presbytère) in the heart of of a beautiful town in the stunning department of La Creuse.
The living room has a very comfortable 3-seater sofa, which can be opened out for use as a second bed, and an armchair. The whole room is light, airy and bright.
The kitchen has everything you should need, including microwave, toaster, kettle, etc. The breakfast bar is the perfect place to eat at any time of the day, or to hang out and play games, or just have a chat over a glass of wine (or three).
The bedroom is comfortable and spacious enough for an armchair, should you want to sit by the window and read.
The shower room is of a good size.
Outside the entrance is a very wide footpath. Whilst this is not private it is not used very often by pedestrians, and we have spent many an evening having a drink outside, and have even had a barbeque there.
The apartment is set back from a quiet road, with ample parking and is less than a minutes walk away from the beautiful town square, with it's cafés, pizzeria, restaurant, small supermarket and banks (with cash machines). The post office is just a minutes walk away. The train station is only 2 minutes walk away, and taxi office only a minute away.
Terms and conditions for booking of apartment:
At the time of reservation the tenant shall pay a non-refundable 25% security deposit of the total rental price. The reservation can be cancelled, but the non-refundable deposit is forfeited.
The remaining balance of 75% must be paid 45 days in advance. If the tenant has not credited it to the owner's account 30 days before arrival, he/she is considered to have cancelled the reservation and the owner has the right to find another client for the same period.
If by
any reason, including late booking or when the Owners agree to vary
terms, the Balance becomes payable less than 45 days before arrival
date then payment must be received on the Agreed Date or before or the
Guest shall be deemed to have cancelled by default.
Insurance
As
soon as possible after booking, you are strongly advised to ensure that
you have full holiday insurance to cover ALL eventualities (including
medical and accident emergencies, cancellation, travel delays etc.)
Cancellation
If the Guest cancels after paying the deposit and over 45 before the
arrival date the deposit shall be forfeit. The Guest shall bear no
further liability even if the Owner fails to re-let the property for
the period in question.
If the Guest cancels within 45 of the
arrival date the owner shall endeavor to secure another let for the
period confirmed. In the event that the Owner is unsuccessful then full
payment (paid or owed) shall be forfeit. In the event that the Owner is
successful he shall return the full payment less the deposit to the
Guest. If, in order to re let the property the Owners must reduce the
rates then the amount of reduction shall be recovered from the Guests'
refund.
If the Guest cancels within 4 weeks of the arrival
date he shall forfeit all monies paid or owed for the booking
regardless of whether or not the owners manage to re-let the property.
Guests
are reminded that most holiday insurance companies will cover the FULL
COST of a holiday in the event of unavoidable cancellation. We strongly
recommend Guests take out such a policy.
The Owners shall in no circumstances be liable for consequential loss due to Cancellation.
Cancellation
is deemed to have occurred on receipt of communication by the Owner
from the Guest (or his representative) by telephone, e-mail or post. It
may also be deemed to have occurred by default as described in Terms
above.
If the Owners wish to cancel they shall notify the Guests in writing and return to the Guests all monies paid by the Guests.
These
clauses unfortunately are necessary in the running of a business. We
feel they are clear and fair. However if you need to cancel please do
contact us immediately so we might work towards a more satisfactory
solution such as rescheduling your planned stay etc. If you have
difficulty arranging payments for example we are able to be very
flexible and can extend dates when we feel appropriate. We are in the
business of providing relaxing and enjoyable holidays, not profiting
from our Guests' misfortune and we will do our best to help.
