Flexible Payment Plans
Booking a holiday should feel just as good as taking one. We know a little versatility in managing your holiday budget can make a big difference, which is why we now offer a Flexible Payment Plan. Book with confidence, pay at your own pace, and focus on the best part: counting down the days until your getaway begins.
Rather than a deposit and balancing payment, a flexible payment plan allows you to spread the cost of any holiday over a schedule that suits you. Once you have locked in a stay at one of our properties, we take a deposit to secure your booking. From there, you are in the driver’s seat.
There is no need to set up a direct debit; we’ll automatically deduct from your credit or debit card. Just choose the day of the month for payments and how many months to spread the cost. If you stay on track, your plan will be paid off eight weeks before your arrival, except for the refundable cautionary deposit.
How it works
The decision to opt into the Flexible Payment Plan is in your hands and you can leave at any time. We’ve designed it to make managing your holiday costs as smooth and effortless as possible; here’s how it works.
Initial deposit
You pay a 30% deposit when confirming your booking. This deposit secures your reservation and ensures that your chosen dates are held. Please note that this initial deposit is non-refundable if your trip is cancelled eight weeks or more prior to the check-in date, unless your dates can be rebooked.
Remaining balance
Choose to split the remaining balance into monthly payments between booking confirmation and eight weeks before arrival, when the full balance is due. Need to update your payment card? Just call us on +44 (0) 1637 882044 at least 24 hours before the payment due date.
Missed payments
We will send you an email reminder seven days before deducting the payment. If any payments are missed, you can just log in to your booking to catch up. Outstanding charges will be deducted with the final balance payment, which is due eight weeks before your stay.
The Flexible Payment Plan operates under the terms and conditions as set out below, in conjunction with Unique Homestays standard Booking Terms and Conditions.
Where you opt to use a payment plan, the following will apply:
- Payment reminders - We will send you a reminder via email seven days prior to deducting the payment from the card that you have selected for this purpose.
- Changing bank card/payment method - If you would like to change your payment card, please call our Finance Team on 01637 882044 at least 24 hours ahead of the payment due date.

- Cancellations and refunds - If you need to cancel your booking our standard cancellation Terms and Conditions will apply. If you cancel more than eight weeks prior to your arrival date and have already paid any part of your balance we will retain your deposit payment and refund the remainder paid. Any further refund will depend on whether we are able to secure a replacement booking.
- Opt-out - If you decide that you no longer want to continue with your payment plan you can opt-out at any time and revert to our standard payment options. Any remaining balance will be due eight weeks before your arrival date.
