General

Statutory Rights. We have tried to ensure that any rights that you as a consumer have that are implied by law into a contract if this type are not excluded or limited in anyway. If any of these terms conflict with a statutory right or the law changes and your statutory rights change, then the statutory rights will prevail over these terms.

Third Party Rights. A party which is not a party to our Contract shall have no right to enforce any term under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999

Events Beyond our Reasonable Control. ‘The Company’ will not be in breach of these terms, nor liable for any failure to perform any of our obligations in relation to your booking (such as the provision of room (s) and/or other products and/or services and/or extras, due to any adverse event, act, omission, or accident which happens which is beyond our reasonable control, including, but not limited to, flood, earthquake, extreme adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, other acts of God, acts of terrorism, fire, or failure of electric power, gas, water, or other utility service, plant machinery, computers, vehicles, or any collapse of building structures

Our Liability. Subject to the remainder of this clause, you should use your own insurance policies to claim the full amount of the loss or damage to your property prior to approaching or pursuing ‘the Company’. The company cannot accept liability for any items left in guest bedrooms. We are, in certain circumstances set out in the Hotel Proprietors’ Act 1956 (Act), liable for loss or damage to your property. However, in those circumstances we are only liable up to the maximum sums under the Act. In all other circumstances, our total liability shall not exceed twice the daily rate charged for your booking. If your booking includes a number of different daily rates, the average rate will be used. ‘The Company’ aims to provide a safe and secure environment for the duration of your stay and where necessary, will take appropriate security measures. If an incident occurs during your stay, resulting in the theft, loss or damage of your property, we will carry out an internal investigation. If we do not feel that your property was stolen, lost or damaged through any fault of ours, our staff or agents, this will be evidence that it was not our fault. In those circumstances, our liability is limited to the maximums under the Act. If an incident is referred to the Police, and they draw the same conclusion as us, this will also be evidence that our liability is limited to those maximums. We shall not be liable, in any circumstances, for any loss or damage to vehicles, or any property left in them. Neither shall we be liable for any loss of profit, or any indirect or consequential loss arising under or in connection with your booking. Where we are liable, we will only be responsible for losses that are a foreseeable result of a breach or negligence, but not otherwise. The loss or damage will be foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of the breach or is contemplated by both parties at the time of entering into the contract.

Nothing in these terms shall limit or exclude our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; or fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or any form of limitation or exclusion prohibited by law or statute. ‘The Company’ shall have no liability to ‘the Client’ for any loss, damage, costs, expenses or other claims for compensation arising from any instructions supplied by ‘the Client’ which are incomplete, incorrect, inaccurate, illegible, out of sequence or in the wrong form, or arising from their late arrival or non-arrival or any other fault of ‘the Client’. When ‘the Company’ provides facilities which includes any services supplied by a third party ‘the Company’ does not give any warranty, guarantee or other term as to their quality, fitness for purpose or otherwise, but shall where possible assign ‘the Client’ the benefit of any warranty, guarantee or indemnity given by the person supplying the service to ‘the Company’

and liabilities incurred or made against ‘ the Company’, as a result of any act or default or negligence of ‘the Client’ or their guests

Licensing Laws. ‘The Company’ operates under the current licensing law in England and the licensing laws pertaining to persons under the age of 18 years shall be strictly enforced. ‘The Company’ operates a Full On Licence

Price Changes. All prices stated in the written confirmations from ‘the Company’ will be honoured unless ‘the Client’ makes any changes. ‘The Company’ reserves the right to alter prices where increases are levied on ‘the Company’ as a result of legislative changes, e.g. Value Added Tax, at the prevailing rate

Terms & Conditions ‘The Client’ may not assign, sub-license or otherwise transfer any of their rights under these terms and conditions. If any provision of these terms and conditions is found to be invalid by any Court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of that provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these terms and conditions, which shall remain in full force and effect. These terms and conditions supersede any previous agreement or understanding and may not be varied except in writing by the parties. All other terms. Express or implied by statute or otherwise, are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law
