On receipt of the deposit, a booking confirmation will be sent to you within 24 hours, containing the details of your stay and of payments made and due. If you have not received your booking confirmation within the specified time, please notify us as soon as possible. We’re sorry for any inconvenience, but payments can only be made by debit cards, bank transfer or credit cards. We do not except American Express or cash. Where a deposit has been paid, full payment will be due 10 weeks in advance of your check in date and a reminder will be sent to you, where applicable, by email.

Our check out time is 10am on your departure date as we need to access the lodge to clean and make ready for next guests arriving later that day. On the day of your departure please replace the key back in the keysafe before you leave. Any lost keys will result in a £25 charge.

  • CANCELLATIONS

Cancellations by you at any time will result in your deposit being forfeited, as all deposits are non-refundable. All monies paid for a holiday (deposit and balance) are non-refundable within 10 weeks before the check in date. Cancellation of any holiday after it has been paid in full and at a date 10 weeks or more in advance of your check in date, will result in forfeiture of your deposit (or an amount equivalent where one was not paid as the holiday was paid in full) and the balance being returned to you. In the case of a lockdown due to Covid 19 a voucher would be issued valid for 24 months for the value you had originally paid (if re-booking at a more expensive time of year you would need to pay any difference).
