House Rules
In high season, July-August, when demand and turnover are high, it is imperative to leave the house at 9am so that our cleaning team can intervene before the arrival of new guests. In low or medium season, for weekend reservations (long weekends, public holidays), if the calendar allows it, it is possible to extend your stay until the end of the day with a supplement of 200€.
Please do not turn the central heating system up past the indicated level, and make an effort to keep doors and windows closed during the cold months. Energy costs are high right now, and we ask you to please be responsible. There are ample space heaters available in every room if you desire more localized heat in bedrooms of other spaces.
Please keep the swimming pool water level at full. We can explain exactly how to do that, and there are instructions onsite. Please leave the pool cover slightly open upon departure, to slow evaporation. We are very happy to explain and assist as needed.
The house is equipped with a septic tank, so please do not put bleach or strong drain cleaning chemicals in the pipes. If you have any plumbing concerns, please contact us immediately for resolution.
It is necessary to respect selective sorting of trash to recycling, as well as the removal of your garbage at the end of your stay.
Pets are allowed, but only outside., no animals inside the house at any time please. We have a lot of high quality furniture and rugs that we do not want damaged. There is a perimeter fence surrounding all 2 hectares of the property, that can keep most dogs contained.
No smoking indoors at any time, and no cigarette butts or other rubbish in the garden please.
You can use the fire wood in the garden for your barbecue or for the fireplace as much as you like at no cost. There is ample firewood stored around the property that you can use. We ask that you please clean the indoor fireplace and the barbecue at the end of your visit.
Please keep noise to a modest level after sunset, and respect the neighborhood.
Please stay out of the underground spaces, namely the lower garage, and the wine cellar below the house.
Please enjoy yourself, and make the most of your time here! We have put a great deal of love and energy into making Domaine de Dadelsen a special place. We are happy to share it with you, and we thank you for choosing us for your stay : )
