West Wales Cottages have not inspected all the cottages that are listed on its website and are acting as an advertising medium for the owners of local holiday properties. 

West Wales Cottages relies on information submitted to us by the holiday cottage owners and we publish it in good faith. Visitors should be aware that the information may be incomplete, inaccurate or may have become out of date. Information on this website is for guidance only and should not be relied upon. No representation or warranty is given as to the accuracy or completeness of the information. If you require verified information please contact agents or individual cottage owners before booking your holiday. All the information published on this site is reviewed and approved by the holiday cottage owner prior to publishing. In the unlikely case that you find there has been an inaccurate description of a cottage then please contact West Wales Cottages and we will amend it. 

West Wales Cottages disclaims all liability for the accuracy of the information contained herein and will not be responsible for any damage or loss that may be sustained directly or indirectly by any person, individual, company or organisation as a result of their reliance in whole or in part on any information contained in this web site. 

Guests should be aware that some cottages are old buildings - built before the days of building regulations,  cavity walls, and standard sizes for stairs, doors and ceilings. Older cottages may also have open fires or wood burning stoves with their associated problems of smoke and dust. Smaller windows may make a property seem darker than a modern house and may have older style furniture which may not be to everyone's taste.

Solid stone walls may be liable to internal condensation - particularly in colder weather when windows are closed. This is a normal situation with no adverse health consequences.

Guests should also be aware that many older properties do not have cavity walls and may not have double glazing or central heating. They often have night storage heaters which can not produce heat on demand like a modern central heating system and may take some days to heat a house properly. Such a property will never be as warm as a modern centrally heated house and because such a property has no damp proof course and stone walls with lime mortar that 'breathe', this may give an impression of dampness compared with a modern centrally heated house.

Guests should also recognise that a Holiday home may be used by the owners families from time to time and may have some personal belongings left in the property. Please respect these.

Guests should appreciate that if an item is damaged or broken by the previous guests, it may not be possible to replace it before the next guests arrival time - especially if the property owners do not live locally and the house is only serviced weekly by a cleaner. 

Preparation of a house for arrival is the sole responsibility of the property owner. If, in the unlikely event that a property is not ready for your arrival, we reserve the right to send in additional housekeeping / cleaning services with no further liability for loss of any kind, or to cancel a booking with full refund with no further liability for loss of enjoyment. However, West Wales Cottages would would make every effort to obtain alternative accommodation should this very unlikely event occur.

External factors: West Wales Cottages has no control over, and cannot be held liable for external factors that could possibly affect a Holiday such as the weather, local traffic, local events, noise or problems resulting from the actions of neighbours, children playing, the continuity of electricity, gas and water supplies and the vagaries of television and mobile phone reception.

We recommend that people who book holiday accommodation should take out holiday and cancellation insurance, to cover unforeseen events.
