Torbay Cottages
Rules and
Conditions
Please, no smoking inside your cottage.
Thanks
Office Hours
Office is available generally from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. If you
plan on leaving early and have not checked out, please do so the evening
before. Check the Office door for a note if it is closed.
Check In and
Check Out
Check In is at 3:00 pm. or later.
Check Out is at 10 am. or earlier.
Late checkouts may be possible and may incur an additional charge.
Deposits
For summer reservations we require a deposit of $200 to $300 depending on
the unit. If we have to refund the deposit due to cancellation there is a
$25 fee. This is not to line our pockets but are fees that we are charged
by our transaction processor.
Cancellation
Policy
For the summer months we require 45 days notice. If we can rent the
cottage we will refund your deposit less the $25 cancellation fee.
During the winter we require at least 2 weeks notice unless there is no
snow.
Visitors/Noise
We want everyone to have a good time but appreciate it if you send your
visitors home by 10:00pm. Some of our guests have young children so
any outside activities are discouraged after this time. Overnight
visitors are not permitted unless registered due to insurance regulations.
If you have lots of day visitors on a regular basis there may be a
surcharge levied for the use of facilities - at our discretion but not to
exceed $10 per person per day.
Parking
There is one reserved parking space for every cottage. If you have
more than one vehicle please park it diagonally in the visitors parking
facing the road to the right as you drive in. Parking is at a
premium so try and park close to each other. Watch for the tubs of
plants....
Smokers
We supply cans filled with sand in various areas of the property for your
butts. Please do not butt your cigarettes anywhere but in a proper
ashtray or cans provided. If you cannot find one please come to the
office and we'll find one for you. This courtesy is very much appreciated
by us and other guests. Please do not smoke in your cottage.
Pets
Please do not allow your pets to run around. Do consider that not all
guests are comfortable with dogs. If you need bags to clean up after
your pet we have some in the office. Please do not tie your dog to
any trees; the picnic tables will be fine.
Visitor's dogs are not welcome
unless permission is granted by Torbay.
It is not permissible to leave your pets alone in the cottage - as this is
not the home they are accustomed to we find dogs will bark incessantly and
annoy other guests and may also attack furniture and scratch/damage doors
and other items.
Dishes
All of our Cottages are "housekeeping" units, please do not leave dirty
dishes when you check out. If you really don't get around to them
consider leaving the cleaning staff a healthy tip; doing dishes is not
part of their job.
Recycling
We provide a blue plastic box in each cottage for recycling. There
are larger recycling containers in front of the office to empty these into
when needed. Please sort your recyclables at the office bins.
Towels
We do not normally change the towels during a one week stay except under
exceptional circumstances. Please do not take the cottage towels to the
beach area! Your own towels should be used for this purpose.
Our Dog
Our dog Baxter loves people, other dogs she puts up with. Please
try not to feed him without asking us first because not only will he then
beg forever; he will also gain too much weight. The odd dog biscuit is ok
but no bones please without Office approval. He does not share well,
so if there is another pet in the picture please do not feed him.
Beach Toys
Please return them to their resting place.
Above all we want you to enjoy
yourselves, if there is anything you need or something we can do
to make your stay more enjoyable please feel free to come and talk to us.
