- Visitors are welcome between 08:00 and 22:00, provided you inform us beforehand. Overnight visitors are only allowed with our permission.

Please sort your waste correctly throughout your stay. Separate bins and a sorting guide with explanations and pictograms are provided in the kitchen.

- When using the oven, please use the aluminium foil provided and remove any grease or food residue afterwards. Please wipe up any spills on the hob promptly to prevent them from burning onto the surface.


BEFORE CHECK-OUT

- Please place your rubbish and recycling in the appropriate bins in the shed beside the on-site car park. A separate container is provided there for glass.

- Please place used towels in the laundry basket.

- Please check out by 10:00 unless otherwise agreed.


OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

- No security deposit is required. However, if cleaning beyond our routine final clean is needed, we will issue an invoice for the extra work. Additional cleaning is charged at €25 per person per additional hour or part thereof. As we clean as a team of two, the total charge is €50 per additional hour or part thereof.

- We will also issue an invoice for compensation or applicable charges in the following cases:

* Theft
* Damage to the holiday home or grounds
* Excessive electricity or water consumption
* Rubbish, cigarette butts or dog waste left on the grounds
* Smoking indoors (€150 fine)
* Soiling of furniture or linen (€150 fine)

- Roadworks continuing until the end of 2027 may cause some disruption during working hours. Most of the work on our section of the street will be completed before Christmas 2026. Vehicle access to our courtyard car park should remain possible most of the time. We will inform guests in good time of any closures or diversions. If our car park is temporarily inaccessible, there is ample parking in the surrounding streets.
