About this property
Cottage by the Lake - Pet friendly
We at BnB Host Management understand that during this time of a Major Disruptive World Event, travel and petrol are an uncertainty.
This also comes under Extenuating Circumstances.
I can promise you that in the circumstance that you are unable to travel due to petrol shortages or Airport closures, I will override any cancellation policy and will organise a refund for you.
There would be only two considerations for you:
1) When a guest is entitled to a refund, we reserve the right to pass on any credit card transaction fees to the primary booking guest, relating to their reservation.
2) We would just require any kind of documentation of proof, to confirm your cancellation request falls within the `Extenuating Circumstances`.
