Term and Conditions:
As a result of numerous fraudulent activities at guest houses and hotels
throughout the U.K, the British Tourist Board, Tourism South East and Sussex
Constabulary suggest that all legitimate customers making a booking would be
happy to provide their full name and permanent address, (none of which is
retained on any data base).
Please note: it is a legal requirement that you provide your full name and address when registering. None of your personal details are kept on a data base or given to any other parties, at any time. We may also request proof of identity upon arrival.
(Pay Pal users can pay for their stay prior to booking in)
We accept all major credit or debit cards on arrival for full payment or cash will be required upon arrival. Please note that we have been requested by the
authorities to report any individuals acting suspiciously, refusing to pay or
refusing to show any identification.
All bookings, including telephone bookings are a "legal contractual
obligation". Customers that make a booking and don't turn up will be charged for
the room/s. These charges, if unpaid can (at the discretion of the proprietor)
be legitimately pursued and upheld through the County Court. All of our sub
sequential costs arising from the action can also be claimed. Cancellations need
to be made at least 72 hours earlier in order to avoid charges being levied.
Deposits are non refundable. All guests are responsible for the safe keeping and
security of their issued keys. A standing charge of £50.00 will be made for lost
or mislaid keys in order to pay for cost of replacing front door locks and
cutting additional keys.
We recommended that visitors have suitable travel insurance. All
accidental or neglectful damage to premises and/or property will be charged for.
All rooms and supplementary equipment is checked prior to your occupancy. Any
damage or losses discovered after your departure will be charged for and an
invoice sent to your home address or your company's offices. Unfortunately, the
occurrence of petty theft has increased substantially; therefore it has become
necessary that all theft from the premises is reported to the local Police and
Tourist Board.
In accordance with Health & Safety Regulations, Fire Regulations and
Council By Laws, all children must be fully supervised by a responsible adult at
all times whilst on the premises. Children must not be left unsupervised at any
time and no responsibility can be accepted by the owners. It is expected that
children's conduct will be supervised whilst dining in order to safeguard other
guests from any disturbance. Additionally, any breakages or damages will be
charged for.
In accordance with the No Smoking Legislation, of which we are legally
obliged to enforce, we cannot allow any smoking in these premises we do provide
a smoking area at the front on the property. In consequence, any guest found
abusing the legislation will be responsible for any fines or legal procedures
which may be imposed upon us by the authorities. (Please note that this could be
several thousand pounds).
Any detectable tobacco odours or traces of tobacco
smoke discovered on the soft fabrics and/or furnishings and/or discarded
cigarette butts thrown from windows in any designated non smoking room/area will
need to be cleaned, repaired and/or sanitized. All costs for these procedures
will be passed on to the responsible guest at their place of residence, after
their departure and will if necessary, be enforced and upheld by the County
Court.
We are registered as a Bed and Breakfast establishment and therefore only
offer services in accordance within these parameters. We are unable to provide
any other services for guests and are unqualified to offer care facilities for
any children, elderly, infirm or unwell guests. Room service is not available
and message services for guests are not normally available. We are unable to
accept any responsibility for messages left and not delivered. Wherever possible
we shall endeavour to assist our guests in any way. However, these services are
purely at the discretion of the proprietor.
Arrival/booking in time is between noon and before 22.00 hrs. After which
staff will not be available to open the doors. However, should you have specific
requirements we try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate your needs.
Should you wish to arrive earlier or leave later, it will be necessary to
contact us so that we can make special arrangements. Room vacation/departure
time is 10.30 hrs. Unless special arrangements have been made. Additional
charges can be made for late departures which have not been agreed.
