- Should you need to amend or cancel your booking please contact the hotel immediately. If the booking is amended within 14 days of the scheduled check-in time of the date of arrival, and as a result you cancel any/all room night or nights with less than 14 days notice, a charge equivalent to the total price (including any supplements selected by you) for that room night or nights will be levied unless the room is re-let for the full duration of the cancelled booking. In this event the appropriate fee will be charged without prior consent being required to the credit or debit card used at the time of the booking. A £10 administration fee will apply to any refund.
- Payments made for Special Events or Murder Mysteries cannot be refunded under any circumstances unless cancelled by the venue
- In the event of the guests non arrival the total outstanding amount excluding any deposit paid prior to the arrival date will be charged to the credit or debit card used at the time of the booking.

- In line with the non-smoking legislation and for the comfort of guests a strict non-smoking policy operates throughout the hotel building. THIS INCLUDES SMOKING THROUGH AN OPEN DOOR OR WINDOW. Guests who fail to adhere to the law will be asked to leave the hotel immediately and a charge equal to three times the current booked room occupancy daily rate will be levied in order to completely air and clean the room. No refund for any period of the remaining stay will be given. Please remember that stale tobacco smoke will linger in a room for many days and is difficult to disperse making it both unpleasant and unhygienic. If it is discovered that a guest has been smoking and they have already checked out, the credit or debit card used at the time of the booking will have a charge made against it equal to three times the daily room occupancy rate without the prior consent being sought. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT IT IS NOW LAW NOT TO SMOKE WITHIN THE HOTEL BUILDINGS.
