incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our procedures so
that, where the correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the
lower amount. If the correct price is higher than the price stated on our site,
we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions within
24 hours of you placing your order, or reject your order and notify you that we

accommodation costs.

Arrival Date and you cancel more than 30 days before your Arrival Date, you
will be refunded 50% of the Accommodation Price. Any refund due to you will
normally be made by using the same method originally used by you to pay for
the purchase.

contact you at the contract details you provided to us as soon as reasonably
practicable and use our reasonable endeavours to find you suitable alternative
residential accommodation of at least the same standard for or as near to the
