We understand that unexpected things happen and sometimes bookings need to be postponed.  In the event that you need to postpone your reservation, your booking may be transferred to another date if you nominate the new dates at the time you advise us of your postponement.  Alternatively, the deposit is fully refundable if cancellation occurs more than 2 weeks prior to arrival date.

If you cancel your booking made directly with us prior to arrival because of a natural disaster (fire, flood) or public health directive, your deposit is fully refundable.

​

If you leave Sarah’s Cottage after arriving because of a natural disaster (fire, flood) or public health directive, the unused portion of your accommodation will be refunded if booked directly with us.

Bookings made via 3rd party websites (AirBnB, Stayz) are subject to the cancellation policy of the website with whom you booked.

 

Fur Buddies

We welcome your four-legged, well-behaved and toilet trained canine friend by prior arrangement.  Your pet is not permitted on the furniture or to be left unattended in the cottage.  Any evidence that your fur buddy has been in residence (odour, fur on furnishings, waste, stains, damage etc) may attract an additional cleaning fee.

 

Extra Charges

Cleaning

We will always look to be reasonable but we reserve the right to apply additional charges for extra cleaning at $50 per hour if furniture has been moved and not replaced, dishes are not thoroughly cleaned, dry and replaced, soft furnishings have been damaged or stained and need replacement or steam cleaning or the accommodation is generally not in the state you found it in.

 

 

Smoking (and other odours)

Sarah’s Cottage is smoke free indoors. However, guests can smoke on the covered verandas outside where ashtrays are provided. An additional cleaning fee of $100 will be applied if the cottage smells of cigarette smoke, fur kids or strong foods such as curry or seafood.

​

House Rules:

Please respect our neighbours by limiting noise after 11pm.

Events and parties are not permitted.

Please only smoke outdoors.

Please place all garbage in the council bins provided when you depart.

Please thoroughly wash, dry and return dishes to the dresser.

If  you have a pet, please ensure that there is no evidence of them having been in residence inside or outside when you depart.
