Natura Lodge Rental Terms and Conditions

1. Reservations / Rules:

The reservation becomes effective when the customer has sent a deposit of 25% (50% for groups) of the total rental amount, either by credit card, bank check, transfer or holiday vouchers (ANCV). You will then receive a confirmation email containing practical information relating to your stay. The balance of your rental must be paid no later than 1 month before the start of your stay.

Any reservation made less than 1 month before the start of the stay must be paid in full when booking.

Attention: in the absence of payment of the deposit within 8 days, Natura Lodge will be able to cancel your pre-reservation and put the accommodation back on the rental.

Natura Lodge reserves the right to refuse reservations for one or two nights on bank holiday weekends, bridges, school holidays and in July and August.

Any additional service will be payable on the day of departure, according to the current rates displayed on site: meals, drinks, additional beds, massages, etc. The prior confirmation sent before your arrival can therefore no longer be contractual if you have consumed additional services and/or if the number of people accommodated has changed.

Payment methods accepted on site: Bank checks / Holiday vouchers (ANCV) / Cash / Credit card.

2. COVID-19 health protocol:

We are doing everything we can to welcome our guests in the best conditions, respecting the health protocol in force.

Departure from the site must take place before 11 a.m. (before 10 a.m. for gîtes).

These costs may be reimbursed if the accommodation has been re-rented during the period in question.
