We really hope that once you're on holiday you are happily self-sufficient by using this 'Essential Info' guide and also the 'Property Folder' which is a guide to your holiday home. It is where you find detailed instructions to work appliances, heating and troubleshooting if needs be (we know things may need a reset or switch off/ on again sometimes for what feels like no reason whatsoever!) Should you find yourselves with a maintenance situation that you can't resolve or a genuine emergency, please call us on 01736 806100 (our office hours are Mon to Fri 9am - 5pm and Sat 10am - 4pm) or for our out of hours maintenance service, call 07825 544615. Arrival and checking in instructions

We will alert you of the key safe code at your check in time of 4pm (this check-in time is specific to this property) on the day of your arrival via the App followed by a text and then email. If the property is ready any earlier, please be assured we will be in touch with the key safe code prior to the set check-in time.

Please remember to have downloaded the App before you set off from home for your holiday. If your property is in an area of no reception, as long as you have downloaded the App, it will show you the key safe code at check in time. Please ensure the app is set to 'auto update' on the app store.

The keys will be placed in the key safe at the property ready for check in, so you are free to arrive at the house anytime from the check in time onwards. Please always leave a key in the key safe box when you go out during your holiday in case of emergencies, thank you.

Key safe location: The key safe for 1 Moonrakers is to the right of the front door

Opening the key safe: Push down the black cover to expose the number dials (if not already exposed). Enter the key safe code so that the code is in alignment with the raise line. Once you have entered the code push the small black lever to the left of the number downwards (from floor to ceiling, not push inwards/depress) and the door will release forward to access the keys.

Opening the door to the property: To open the door, insert the key and turn the key to the right until you hear/feel the lock mechanism unlock, then using the handle open the door. To lock, close the door and then lift the handle upwards, before turning the key to the left.

We ask that you text the housekeeper 24 hours before you leave the property to give them an estimated time of departure.
