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`.

Cabin was amazing, it had everything you could need for your stay. The beds were comfortable, the front yard for your dog was a great plus the owners had though of everything and had it all there. The garden shed with all the little extras someone may need was also so thoughtful I'd happily go back
