Making a booking

We reserve the right to reserve more popular rooms for a minimum of 4 nights stay during busy midweek periods and for 3 nights stay at weekends.We have no way to show this for the online availability, we have to show them as available. If we decline your booking we will destroy your details without charge and notify
you of the reason.
If we accept a Friday/Saturday or Saturday/Sunday booking (two nights) we will normally ask that you pay in full at the time of booking as we have a two night minimum requirement for Saturday nights between June and November and all Bank Holiday weekends.

a booking with us you are confirming that you are a couple or a family.
