Arrival and departure
The house is rented from Saturday until Saturday. The rental period begins at 4:00 p.m. on the first day and finishes at 10:00 a.m. on the last day. You will be greeted by our agent  who will welcome you and show you around. There is a book in the property with detailed instructions for operating the various appliances.

Please depart no later than 10 a.m., as other guests will be arriving that afternoon, and we need time to clean and launder. (It may be possible to arrange a different arrival or departure time. Please contact the Owner if this would be helpful to you.) 

On departure you should hand the keys back to our agent and assuming the post-rental inspection  [see below] has found no problems), the Owner will return your security deposit.

If you have a house-related emergency or any questions then feel free to contact our agent who is very close by.

Please contact her in case of any household emergencies or questions during your stay. 

Electricity and water
Electricity and water are expensive so please be considerate. 

Cleaning standards and rubbish
You are expected to leave the house in the same clean and tidy condition as you found it  when you depart. Please empty wastepaper bins  and the kitchen bin. Take the rubbish and recyclables to the nearby collection points. Put everything back in its place and lightly sweep the floors. Remove the sheets and pillow cases from the beds. Leave wet towels hanging to dry.

Specific details may be found in our User’s Guide to the House, located in the house itself. Please note: An extra charge will be levied from the Security Deposit if the house is not left tidy, as described in Clause #10 of the Booking Conditions Contract and as described in our User’s Guide for la maison du mūrier.
