all those entered on the
Booking Form and on whose behalf the booking is made.
2. BOOKING: Provisional booking of accommodation should be made by telephone or email, and the signed
Booking Form, together with the appropriate deposits should be received by the Agent (or by the person delegated by the Agent for this

the right to regard the
booking as cancelled if the balance of the price remains unpaid after the due date. For bookings made less than eight weeks
prior to arrival date,
immediate payment of the total holiday cost is required. Remittances made by sterling draft or cheque on a foreign bank will
incur a charge of

cost the Client has the right to cancel the booking and we will refund in full any monies paid.
