1. Please respect the house and furniture as if it were your own. We have gone to great lengths and expense to ensure that the cottage is well provided for, please respect that so that everyone can have a good experience.
This means leaving the house as you found it, having done all washing up, and taken out the rubbish, we do not expect you to clean the property before you leave, however if anything has been spilt please use the cleaning products provided to reduce the chance of staining or damage to the property and reduce the risk of you being charged.
2. Please take your shoes off when in the property. The flooring is solid wood, not laminate so high heels and stones in treads etc will leave an impression.

4. Please wash muddy dogs before entering the house, there is a dog washing station by the gate to facilitate this which has hot and cold taps so they don`t get cold.

Hot Tub Rules -
- Use available between 8am - 11pm this is to be respectful of our neighbours

Misuse of the hot tub will result in it being drained, and turned off. There will be a £100 charge for it to be refilled. This includes but is not limited to using it and allowing the water to get muddy or murky, spilling things in it, drinking excessively, inappropriate behaviour and making too much noise at unsociable hours.
• Please only use dark towels provided for the hot tub to prevent staining from the garden, following these rules will prevent you from potentially being charged for any staining to the towels.
• Always shower with soap and water before entering the hot tub, in order to remove any lotions etc - people wearing fake tans must not use the hot tub as it binds to the chlorine and makes algee grow which is hazardous to health- always shower after using the hot tub in order to remove chlorine etc.
• Ensure footwear is worn in the garden to get to the hot tub as mud etc collecting on your feet before entering the hot tub will lead to dirty water which will have to be cycled.
• Always keep the hot tub covered when not in use. This will conserve energy, and prevent any person/animal or debris from falling into the tub.
• If your hair is long, put it up in a ponytail so as to avoid getting it caught in the filter or drain.
• Make sure that the hot tub is at the appropriate temperature, taking into consideration the people who will be using it. The hot tub is pre-set at 37 degrees centigrade, This is to prevent overheating - especially for young children. Children under the age of 4 years old should never use the hot tub, and children under 16 years old must be supervised at all times.
• No glass is to be taken into the hot tub. Please use plastic cups provided.
• Avoid drinking excess alcohol or using drugs in the hot tub. The hot water will amplify and speed the effects of any alcohol or drugs. Alcohol makes you drowsy, and falling asleep in hot water can be very dangerous. In addition to the risk of drowning, your body cannot regulate its temperature as well, which can lead to serious overheating.
• Never use electrical devices not designed for use in water (including phones, radio, TVs or any other corded devices) in or near the hot tub.
• Be cautious when using the hot tub during the winter. If the temperature outside the hot tub is below freezing, water splashed over the edge can quickly freeze into slippery ice. Always be careful when exiting.

WARNINGS
• Pregnant women should avoid submerging their stomachs in a hot tub, as the temperature is far too hot for the foetus.
