Can I get a refund when coronavirus rules change?
Simon Calder answers your questions on holiday homes, the best places to visit during the pandemic and how to avoid a quarantine destination
Q I have paid in full for a house in Dorset in November for a family gathering of six adults and three children. Ironically I paid the balance just four days ago – earlier than I needed to, because I was due to go to Crete next week when the final balance was due. Obviously the Greek holiday was cancelled because of the quarantine order, and Tui is refunding the money.
If the “rule of six” continues it will be illegal for us to take that break. But the owner says he will only refund the money if it can be re-let – which is unlikely to happen given the new rule about gatherings. Shouldn’t a full refund be given?
