Glendrynoch Cottages
Holiday cottages on the Isle of Skye, Scotland

Terms of Let

Please take a moment to read through the following information. This will help ensure an enjoyable stay in our cottages for both you and those who come after you. In addition, if you are thinking of booking a cottage between November and March, please read the information on Winter Lets.

Time of lets

Lets are from 3.30pm on the Saturday of your arrival until 10.00am on the Saturday of your departure. However if these times are very inconvenient we can normally manage to be flexible given good notice. We do not let the cottages for weekends, unless you're willing to pay for two weeks! Very occasionally a weekend let might be possible in low season or if there has been a last minute cancellation that we have failed to fill..

Care of the cottages

We let the cottages on the understanding that tenants will look after them and leave them clean and tidy. We are sorry but 'clean' means exactly that as there is not time on a Saturday to deal with a dirty cooker or shower and your rent does not include cleaning. It takes all our time to make beds, check everything and clean the bits that we don't expect you to do.

If anything is not working properly or you break something please, please tell us immediately. You might not mind about it but to those following it could be essential and a note on a Saturday morning is useless! We will ask for payment for any breakages at the end of your stay. The cottages are designed and equipped for a MAXIMUM of 8 people. Please do not try and fit in any more than this, even a small baby.

Payment

A deposit of £50.00 per week is required on booking the cottage. The balance of the rent must be paid six weeks before you arrive, or on booking if you book less than six weeks in advance. Payment of electricity and telephone is made at the end of your stay. Electricity costs are calculated from meter readings (there are no coin in the slot meters). We request that you make a note of all telephone calls.

PLEASE NOTE we now accept payment by PayPal (an extra 10%) or electronically directly to our account. Cheques should be made payable to "Glendrynoch Cottages" Please ask for details if you wish to pay electronically.

Linen etc.

Sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers are provided also tea-towels and bath mats. Towels (2,one hand one bath) may be hired at £3.00 per person. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT WE KNOW WELL IN ADVANCE THE TOTAL NUMBERS OVER YOUR LET. There are plenty of blankets and hot water bottles. We can supply a cot and high chair on request but do not normally supply cot bedding.

Pets

We are happy for you to bring pets, but please keep them out of the bedrooms and off the chairs. There are sheep everywhere so please make sure that any dogs are under control.
