Terms & Conditions

A provisional booking can be held for two weeks, then a £200 deposit will be payable to secure your reception date. Please note that events on a Friday or Saturday night will be subject to minimum numbers. From June through to September evening celebrations will only be available if the wedding party fills the hotel for 2 days.

The balance of the estimated total becomes payable to the Hotel, one week before the date of your wedding at the time of confirmation of final numbers.

Any outstanding balance will be invoiced to you directly after the event, with payment requested within our normal two-week terms.

Generally, all associated accommodation bookings for your wedding guests must be confirmed in writing at the time of securing the reception date, and a deposit of £10 per room paid (especially important for exclusive use of the Hotel).  The final accommodation charge payable on departure.

All rates quoted are inclusive of VAT.
Please note a service charge of 10% will be added to your bill.

Meals for children under 10 are charged at half the adult rate.
Children under the age of 3 are free of charge.

The numbers attending your reception should be estimated when the provisional booking is made at the Hotel.  We require a minimum figure one month in advance followed by an exact number seven days before the event.

We ask for your understanding that these will then be the minimum numbers that will be charged for on the day and the account for these numbers becomes payable at this time.
Please note that the menus are subject to minimum numbers.  Smaller events may be priced individually
