 Anonymity and Pseudonymity

If you wish to stay in our farms on an anonymous basis, we will not be able to accommodate your request.

Damage to farm's property – We reserve the right to charge guests the cost of rectifying damage, caused by the deliberate, negligent or reckless act of the guest to the farm's property or structure. Should this damage come to light after the guest has departed, we reserve the right to make a charge to the guest's credit / debit card or send an invoice for the amount to the registered address. We will however make every effort to rectify any damage internally prior to contracting specialists to make the repairs, and therefore will make every effort to keep any costs that the guest would incur to a minimum.

Removal of Farm's Property – We reserve the right to charge guests the cost of replacing any items that are removed from the premises by them without consent. The charge will be the full replacement amount of the missing item, including any carriage charges. Should the fact that the item is missing come to light after the guest has departed, we reserve the right to make a charge to the guest's credit/debit card or send an invoice for the amount to the registered address.

Farm's Liability Depend on the Guest's Actions

The farm is typically not liable for loss or damage of guest's valuable if the loss was caused by the guest's own fault. For example, if you negligently and end up losing your property, you cannot place the blame on the farm. A common occurrence involves the safe for your valuables provided by a farm room. If you don't use the safe and your valuables are stolen, some states will hold that the farm is not liable since you could have protected your valuables but did not do so.

Payment Bond

At the time of check in, if you do not wish to provide credit card details, you must pay for the cost of your stay in full in advance and you will be required to pay in cash a bond on account of services or facilities that are provided to you during your stay at our farms.  The cash bond will be refunded to you on your departure provided that your rooms are left in good order and you have paid for all services supplied by our farms and there are no other outstanding liabilities.

Age Restrictions

We do not knowingly collect personal information from or target individuals under the age of 18. If you are a parent or legal guardian and know of or have reason to believe your children under the age of 18 have provided us with personal information without your permission, please contact us.
