Although the rental price is in euros, we can accept payments in euros, pounds or dollars.  You can pay via cash, check, wire transfer or with VISA or MasterCard through the secure Paypal system.

For 2008 vacations, a deposit of 50% of the total price confirms your reservation, with the remaining 50% due 8 weeks before the start date of your vacation.  For 2009 vacations, a 10% deposit confirms your reservation, with 40% due by March 2008, and the remaining 50% due 8 weeks before the start date of your vacation. 

If you need to cancel your booking, we will try to relet
for the same period and, if successful, we will return everything you have paid (and hope to see you next year). While we have had good luck releting in the past, if we cannot relet, we will retain the amounts paid to date but you will not be obligated for the remainder of the price.
