Any verbal notification must be put in writing and given to the hotel as soon as possible. No liability can be accepted if you fail to notify the problem according to this procedure. Any disputed invoiced items must be raised in writing with the hotel.

Booking: Once you have selected your date and requirements, we can make a provisional booking for you. This booking will be held for 14 days. However, if another party expresses interest in the same date during this period, we will inform you. If we do not hear from you, the provisional booking will be released without further notice after 14 days.

Deposit: To confirm your chosen date, we require a non-refundable deposit of £1,000.00 and a signed booking form and terms and conditions from both members of the marrying couple. Once we receive these and the deposit is paid, we will confirm your booking details in writing. Minimum numbers apply to each function room as follows:
