4:00 PM, departure is at the agreed day of leaving before 10:00
AM.

settlement.
- After receiving the payment (50% of the rent at booking, the
remaining 50% including the security-deposit at most 2 months
in advance of the letting period) the cancellation costs are
25% of the total rent amount; when cancelling within two months
before the starting date of the letting period, the cancellation
costs are 50% of the total rent amount.
- You are expected to take care of your own legal liability-insurance,
cancellation- and travelinsurance, since our insurance doesn't
cover these things.

and surrounding property, inflicted by you or the people staying
with you.
- The landlord, or them speaking for him/her, can not be held
responsible for damages, directly or indirectly created by the

in or outside the house. Under no circumstances shall the amount
the landlord is held responsible for be larger than the amount
of rent payed.

case of non-proper usage of house and property. The agreed number
of inhabitants shall not be exceeded without explicit permission
given by the landlord. Camping out on the property is not permitted.

Additional information:
|
- In the house you will find a map of the surrounding region.
- The beds have already been made. In the bathroom you will find sufficient towels.
- A spare gascylinder is stored in the open stable next to the
house.
- The ground fault interrupter is located in the grey, uninhabited
house at the end of the "street". When you walk into the kitchen
you will see a wooden panel with a red and black button. Push
the black button to re-enable electricity.
- We usually leave the outside gate open.
- When you walk out of the backside porch (don't forget the
key, it's in the platter on the kitchentable), and take a right,
you will automatically enter the old part of the village. (So
walk down the forrest path on your right hand, take a left at
the end, after the path bends to the right take a left down
the stairs, and take a right at the road to go to Place Mitterand.)
- When you walk out of the backside porch and go to your left,
you will directly enter the forrest. After about 50 metres you
take a right to the road, cross the road to the parkinglot and
descend to the river the Auxois for a walk of approximately
1 hour.
- You can also walk out of the backside porch, take a left.
Keep walking straight ahead, take a right at the end, after
about 15 minutes take a sharp right, and after another 15 minutes
take a right turn at the T-intersection to return to the house.
This forrest is part of Domaine la Croix Chatain.
- On thursdays there is a small market at the Place Mitterand.
- Swimming is possible in the lake at the end of Rue Croix Chatain.
After a 15 minute drive you will find the Lac de Chaumecon,
with several quiet, small beaches and nice swimming water.
- In case you would like to play tennis, you can book a court
at the Bar/Tabac located at Rue d'Avallon, just past the Hotel.
- On thursday and sunday evening the garbage can be put just
outside the gate in the container. This is located diagonally
across the frontdoor, just outside the fence.
- NB: There are certain places on the property that could be
dangerous for "smaller" children. In the small house behind
the garbagecontainer you will find a deep well.
The historical "icecellar", located on the southside of the
entrance lane, is also a place to keep an eye out for. Last
but not least, climbing the wooden wall surrounding the parkinglot
could make the heavy logs fall down.
- On the domain there are, next to several barns, stables and
the uninhabited Bergerie, a coachhouse and the manoir, that
can both be inhabited; the distance to the coach driver's house
is large enough for you not to experience any discomfort from
possible inhabitants.
- In the periods of high temperatures and low rainfall, it would
be nice if you could water the flowers and plants on both sides
of the house.
