Electric Vehicles
The cottage electrics have not been insured, PAT tested or certified for electric vehicles to be charged from the property. Doing so is in breach of our fire safety and health and safety risk assessments, which invalidates our insurance policy. If guests are found using the cottage electricity supply to charge vehicles - guests will be charged accordingly, and risk having their stay immediately terminated. We are happy to provide details of local EV charge points.

Dogs
Ocean View accepts up to two medium, well behaved dogs in the property for an additional charge of £50 per dog. Young dogs / puppies, aged 12 months old or under are not permitted. Dogs are not permitted on furniture, sofas, or upstairs in the property, in bedrooms / on beds, and a stair gate is in place to help with this.
Any significant amount of dog hair found on bedding or where we suspect a dog has been sleeping on bedding, we have the right to retain your damage deposit to cover the cost of replacement bedding and additional cleaning required. Additional cleaning above and beyond ‘normal’ cleaning, is charged at £35/hour.
Dogs are not to be left alone in the property - in exceptional cases, they can be crated unless you can guarantee it won’t do any damage.
