The availability and booking calendar allows owners to let holiday-makers know when their accommodation is available. If the property has more than one room or more than one self-catering cottage there will be a button for each availability calendar. Note that owners can set calendars for up to 18 months ahead but the listings default to show only the next 12 months. If you wish to see availability beyond 12 months, click the Next button just above the calendar.
Non-available dates are scored out so you can quickly see if the dates you want are available. If an accommodation is bookable by the day (for example in a guest house or bed and breakfast), then each day that is available is clickable. When you hover over the day the price and booking terms are shown on the right hand side of the calendar. If an accommodation is only bookable by the week (for example in a self-catering cottage), then only the changeover day \ arrival day is highlighted. Once again, you can hover over the arrival day to find out prices and booking terms.
Once you have found the dates you want and wish to proceed to book them you can either phone the owner, send an enquiry or use the preferred method - the lovetoescape.com booking system. Using this gives you a greater chance of securing the booking and means that the system does the difficult work of calculating prices, deposit and balance due dates leaving the holiday-maker and owner more time to talk about the important things like where to eat out, which are the best walks and closest beaches!
Using the booking system is simple - you just click the start day you want and then follow the instructions on the on-line form. Filling this out gives the owner all the details they need to make the booking promptly as well as providing them with contact information should they need it.
Please note that payment arrangements should be agreed with the owner and an email will be sent to your account to confirm your booking arrangement. So please look out for this in your inbox.
