iii) If there is a fault or a problem occurs, we will make best efforts to keep any delay or inconvenience to an absolute minimum while we rectify.

v) The hirer undertakes to inform the owner or caretaker immediately of any articles that have been damaged, lost or broken during their stay, and to reimburse for the cost of such articles. However, minor damage or breakages will not normally be charged but we do reserve the right to charge bad tenants for extra cleaning, breakage or damage and may refuse future bookings.

11) Complaints. Our policy is to deal with complaints as soon as they arise, both promptly and in a positive manner. Should something go wrong, or you wish to give feedback or raise a complaint, please contact us immediately since it is often difficult to investigate or deal with complaints once you have returned home.

12) The use of holiday accommodation and any facilities is entirely at the risk of the hirer and their party. No liability is accepted for loss, damage, sickness or injury, howsoever caused which may be sustained during the holiday to any member of the party, any car and its contents or any possessions of the party. The hirer is responsible for ensuring that their party are fully aware of all booking conditions and have appropriate holiday insurance in place.

14) We reserve the right to share details with other accommodation providers of those guests who do not respect the property or show a disregard to the terms and conditions set out above.

15) Electric Vehicles (this includes Bikes and Scooters): We do not have on-site charging facilities at Coverack Headland. You must therefore make your own arrangements for EV charging. The closest charge points to the Property are at Tesco (Clodgey Lane, Helston TR13 8PJ) and Sainsburys (Clodgey Lane, Helston TR13 8BN). Most EVs are supplied with a domestic charger. These recharge the EV using a domestic power source via a 3-pin wall socket. Domestic chargers are not permitted at the Property as they invalidate our insurance.  You are solely liable for any damage to the Property or loss suffered by the Owner as a result of your unauthorised use of a domestic charger.

16) Pacemakers: The British Heart Foundation recommends people with pacemakers to keep at least 60cms (2 feet) away from the Induction hob and 15cms (6 inches) from the microwave and hairdryer.
