Booking Terms
These booking terms ('Booking Terms') are between THE COTTAGE (referred to as ‘We’/’Us’/’Our’) named under the ‘Reservation Confirmed with’ section of the Booking confirmation ('Booking Confirmation') and the person or legal entity making the Booking (‘You/Your’). These Booking Terms are for the provision of accommodation services ('Booking(s)') by Us to You. These Booking Terms are governed by Scottish Law, and the jurisdiction of the Scottish Courts. You may however, choose the law and jurisdiction of England or Northern Ireland. By making a Booking You are deemed to accept and be bound by these Booking Terms.

When You make a payment using a credit card, We (or Our parent company or Our trading name if different) will be displayed as the merchant of record.

Bookings
Bookings are made and a contract between You and Us comes into effect when We accept a reservation from You. We will accept a reservation when We have confirmed Your reservation and received either: (i) full payment of the total price; or (ii) payment of a deposit equivalent to the value of the first night stay; (iii) any other amount We have specified at the time of Your booking; or (iv) We have agreed to collect payment from You either on arrival or departure. Where a deposit or any other amount that is less than the total value of the stay is paid, the balance will be paid by You directly to Us, on either check-in or check-out or at an earlier date if so requested by direct communication between You and Us. You must be able to enter into a legally binding contract and be over 18 years of age to make a Booking. Bookings must be paid for using a valid credit or debit card or any other payment type specified. When Your Booking is confirmed, a reservation number is given. This number must be retained for access to Your Booking details if cancellation or amendment is necessary. You will need to quote this reservation number when contacting Us.

Prices
All prices include VAT where applicable at the current rate. Prices are per room per night. Prices do not include other costs You may choose to incur during Your stay (unless otherwise stated). Prices quoted are correct (unless a pricing error occurs) only for the specific number of guests, dates, nights and rooms shown.
Availability

In the rare case that We are unable to accommodate You as per Your Booking, You will be offered alternate accommodation by Us and if there is a difference in the Price, You will be liable for the price differential. If the differential is less than the original value of Your Booking a refund of the difference will be made to You.

Arrival and departure
Check-in times are specified on Your Booking Confirmation. Should You wish to check-in outside of the times specified You must confirm this directly with Us. In the event that You attempt to check-in outside of the stated times without prior arrangement, We may cancel the booking and retain any amounts. We are entitled to retain as stated in the Cancellation Policy section of Your Booking Confirmation. The check-out time is also specified on Your Booking Confirmation.

Cancellations & Amendments
If You cancel Your Booking on or before the cancellation deadline specified in the Cancellation Policy section of Your Booking Confirmation (the ‘Cancellation Deadline’) a full refund will be given including any booking extras paid at the time of Your Booking.
If You cancel Your Booking after the Cancellation Deadline You will be charged the full value specified in the Cancellation Policy section of Your Booking Confirmation (the ‘Cancellation Deadline’), including any booking extras You have selected for the duration of Your stay. Should You change the number of guests, dates, room nights or room type (“Amendment”), then the prices are subject to change. Should You request an Amendment and should We not be in a position to accommodate Your Amendment, Your Booking will be cancelled and a full refund given to You provided that such cancellation occurs on or before the Cancellation Deadline, failing which the terms described in this Cancellation clause shall apply.

Payment
