The McComish Florida Holiday Villa - "Highgate House" is managed by an agency, whereas The McComish Spanish Holiday Villa is not, although we do have a local representative in Spain. So there are always people local to the Villa you are staying at that you can turn to for help if required. (We may refer to them in these terms and conditions as our representative, our local representatives, the keyholder or the managing agents).

You will also always recieve the personal care and attention and family touch of The McComish Family if you stay at one of our Villas.

After making a reservation with us, the party leader must complete our booking form (we will provide you with this) and sign on behalf of all members of the party that these booking conditions together with our general information have been read and accepted.

The accommodation is booked solely for the use of the guests named on the booking form. Due to fire regulations, the maximum occupancy as advised by us must not be exceeded (10 people at The Florida Villa, 6 people at The Spanish Villa).

To confirm your booking, we will require a non-refundable deposit within 7 days of our verbal confirmation of your arrangements (unless arranged otherwise during the booking process). A higher deposit may be required for premium dates or for longer stays.

Your booking is confirmed once we have received your deposit and booking form, and the confirmation invoice has been issued by us. No further invoice will be issued, therefore please make a note of the balance due date.

The following Booking Terms and Conditions apply when booking a stay with us so please read very carefully.

Terms and Conditions:-

  • The following booking conditions form the basis of your contract. All bookings are subject to these booking conditions. The parties to that contract are yourselves and McComish Holiday Villas.

  • Any breakages or damage must be notified immediately either to ourselves or our representatives.
