6.1 Any breakages, loss or damage to the property must be advised immediately to the owner, and paid for by the person in whose name the booking was made (Party Leader).
6.2 If any damage should result in an insurance claim, the Party Leader may be held liable to pay any excess, or to pay in full should the amount be less than the excess.
6.3 We cannot accept responsibility for any lost property left behind at the end of a stay. We will make reasonable efforts to return lost property only on receipt of full payment for the registered post involved.
7. LIABILITY
No liability is accepted in respect of any loss, damage, sickness or injury to the client or any member of their party, baggage, car or contents, howsoever caused, which may be sustained during their stay.
8. COMPLAINTS
If during your stay you feel that there are any deficiencies or faults which require urgent attention in the cottage, you must advise the owner immediately so that appropriate action may be taken. No complaints will be considered after your holiday, unless they were raised when they occurred.
9. ACCESS
The owner and his agents must be allowed access to the cottage at any reasonable time for essential maintenance and inspections. Where possible, prior arrangements will be made.

There is a recycling scheme in operation for tins and glass, so please don't put cans and bottles/jars in with the household rubbish; but do put in all plastics. If you generate a large amount of "empties", it would be a generous gesture to take them to the recycling bins in the main car park at Glenridding.

SMOKING IS NOT ALLOWED ANYWHERE IN EITHER COTTAGE.
