House Good
Practice
Enjoy.
You are on holiday. Treat
our home as if it were your own.
Smoking.
Please smoke outside if
you can – there are three terraces and Fuerteventuara is
about outdoor living.
Information folder.
This will tell you hints
etc about the island. We will try to build this up over
the years. Please don’t remove items if you can help it.
Basic security.
Put on the outside lights
– front and back when you go out. Lock the front door
and the patio door. Insert the security bolts. Use the
safe for passports etc. You would not go out and leave
your doors and windows open at home, so it makes sense
not do it here. The island is literally crime free but
opportunists exist in all countries etc.
Fans / Heater.
Please could you could
turn these off when you go out as we don’t charge extra
for these.
Couches.We
would prefer that you keep the throws on the couches,
especially during the day. Also, if you are wearing
tanning bronzing oil etc, if you could avoid lying on
the couches while soaked in oil, this would be good.
External folding chairs
(4 No) with soft covers & Seat pads & Sun lounger
cushion pads.
Please could you bring
them inside the house at the end of your stay please or
in the unlikely event of poor weather. To fold the white
chairs, turn them upside down.
Parasol on roof.
Please avoid use in high
winds.
Bedding.
This will be changed at
the end of week 1. There is a washing machine for your
use. NOTE: There are also spare blankets and throws in
case you need them in the bottom of the wardrobes.
Bedroom 2.
There is a folding camp
bed (‘poofy’) in this room. If you have three kids, they
can all sleep in the same room. This will save you
having to use the lounge bed settees. This will also
save wear and tear on the lounge settees please. There
is a quilt, flat sheet, duvet, pillow, pillow cases.
Please alert David to the fact that you intend to use
this facility as this is only made up on prior request.
