Cots & Dogs

A little more information for those looking to stay. And answers to some Frequently Asked Questions.

Not everything that you (the Reader) need to know will be here so do be in touch through our contact form or by picking up the phone. Scroll to the very top left of the page for our contact details, or hit the floating button.

No supplementary charge for dogs

Dogs are as much a part of a break in these parts as their owners and we’re happy for them to sleep in the bedrooms (but not on our beds) and join you in the bar or the Sun Lounge.  

If your dog prefers not to be in your room or the car while you eat then do let us know when you book.  We do our best to keep plenty of clear territory between dining dogs.

We do have the odd thought on how to integrate dogs into what we do, as much for those who don’t own or appreciate dogs as those who do. Read more on Canine Matters here.

No charge also for cots

We’ve travel cots which we happily make up at no charge. Although we love looking after children, be aware that most of our rooms aren’t adjacent to the dining room and bar.  Talk to our team when booking if this is a worry for you.

For any children of 5+ sleeping in one of our camp beds, we charge £40 per night which includes breakfast and the camp bed.


Single Occupancy

Any of our rooms can be booked for single occupancy, although the most suitable are probably those we call Doubles.

Our single occupancy prices are not the same as our double occupancy rates. But neither are they half. Somewhere in between.

Single Saturday nights

Many hotels ask you to stay two nights or more at the weekend. We prefer not to, but have to keep an eye on the bottom line. So we do keep a good number of our rooms available for Saturday night only stays, but once they are taken up, we will then only accept bookings for Friday and Saturday or Saturday and Sunday.

We hope this is fair to all.

Cancellation Policy

We’d prefer not to charge for cancellations but may do so if we cannot sell a room that has been cancelled. In the event of cancellations, we will charge a % of the aggregate B&B rate to the card number you’ve given us.

For those made less than 7 days before the day of arrival the charge will be 30%, while for those made less than 48 hours before 2pm on the day of the arrival, we will charge 75%.

Planning a wedding?

For those organising a wedding nearby, best to know upfront that we tend not to accept block bookings for people staying for weddings. 

We make no apologies for this.  The reason is that we want our rooms to be available for those wanting to escape for a weekend. 

If your guests call us once they know the date, we’re of course happy to take their booking subject to any single Saturday restrictions (see above).
