Our exclusive use price is fixed so you will either have to pay more PP or invite others to make it more economical

Of course, just get in touch via email and we will organise that.
9. Can we bring our own alcohol?
Residents are of course permitted to bring and consume their own drink (apart from wedding bookings). Note that as a licenced venue we are legally responsible for monitoring and preventing any drunken behaviour on premises and that no one is allowed to drink anything in outside areas after 9.30pm. This is strictly enforced and your damages deposit will be charged in full for guests who disrespect the house rules.
Residents can request us to run a chargeable bar on site. If there are dditional guests on the premises who are not resident at the property (i.e. not sleeping overnight) we must operate the bar and sell all alcoholic drinks in order to control alcohol consumption/ If any residents or non-residents consume their own supply of alcohol, not provided by us , during times when there are additional day guests on site, then the group may be asked to leave. Self-catering is not permitted when anyone is at the property who is not sleeping there. The onwers must be made aware of any non-residents invited to the property. Failure to disclose this information may result in you having to leave and/or your damages deposit being deducted in full.
10. When do I have to notify you of final numbers?
If you are in a wedding party, please book estimated numbers by the payment due date. We can adjust this a bit 2 weeks before the big day.
If you are not in a wedding party, we need final numbers 3 weeks before arrival so please drop us a quick line and we will adjust the booking at our side to make sure therapists are booked in for your treatments.
11. How can I pay?
Our preferred payment method for exclusive use is online on this site but we appreciate our wedding groups in particular will want to see the venue so our staff can book online for you there and then if you want to go ahead and take payment via our debit card machine. The balance would be paid by you online on the due date on your booking confirmation
12. I'm staying midweek. What is included?
This is set out on the website and will depend on what type of booking you have.
13. I have got the function suite as part of my exclusive use booking, can I invite others into the venue who are not staying?
No, all guests must be registered with us.
14. Do you offer a wedding co-ordinator and preferred suppliers?
We understand that your wedding is unique to you and therefore do not insist you use any specific suppliers for the service. You can , if you think you need one, find wedding co-ordinators online and we will happily answer any questions from them by email.
Our staff will help answer any questions in advance of day and we will ensure the day goes smoothly.
