Discuss your proposed plans with the property owners who may be able to advise what services and activities area available in the locality.
Renting large group accommodation
The way self catering rentals work is that you complete a booking form on paper or online which acts as a contract between you and the property owner.
You would pay a deposit to reserve the property in advance. Check the terms to see whether this is refundable in case of cancellation.
The balance is payable several weeks before arrival. 6-8 is usual. Do take out insurance to cover any losses should you need to cancel.
You will be given times of arrival and departure rather like check in and out in a hotel.
A refundable damage deposit is also the norm to encourage guests to treat the property respectfully.
