Terms & Conditions
​
Payment Policy
After we have received a confirmation from you about securing your space on the ‘Retreat, relax & rejuvenate under the Sicilian Sun' retreat, we hold the space for 48 hours, allowing time to receive either a 50% deposit or a full payment for a retreat booking. If the initial deposit has been paid, the remaining must be paid in full 8 weeks prior to start date.
The Booking Contract
No contract will exist until you have paid your deposit and a confirmation email has been received. This is because we only have limited places. Once your confirmation deposit or full payment has been received, you will receive a final confirmation of the booking with a request for personal information / dietary requirements etc.
Insurance
Guest must have their own travel insurance to join a retreat with us which will cover them in the event that they are unable to attend due to illness, bereavement or any other personal reason.
Retreat Cancellations
As mentioned under Insurance, guest must have their own travel insurance which will cover them in the event that they are unable to attend due to illness, bereavement or any other personal reason. Though our spaces are limited we always endeavour to treat cancellations sympathetically.
