Bookings
The TIC can book your accommodation for you. Currently the TIC takes a commission of 7.5% of the whole stay which the customer pays and is deducted from the balance. It is the responsibility of the proprietor to collect the balance in line with their own booking terms and conditions. This applies to both self catering and serviced accommodation.
PATBF income
PATBF is a non-profit making organisation. It is a Member organisation run by its Members, for its Members and to promote tourism in the area. The two main sources of income are membership fees and the holiday guide. Other sources include accommodation booking commissions, TIC sales and advertising.
