Do we need holiday insurance?
Whilst we don’t insist that you have holiday insurance, we think it’s a good idea to do so. A good travel insurance policy is likely to cover cancellation of your booking due to most reasons genuinely beyond your control – some insurances even cover cancellation due to adverse travel and road conditions. We can’t be held liable if you aren’t able to access the property due to events beyond our control. We also recommend that your holiday insurance covers you for personal liability claims just in case any accidental damage is caused during your stay.
If you have any other questions please ask! We are always happy to help with anything you need to know before or during your stay.
We wish you a very enjoyable stay at Yonder View - happy holidays!
