Accommodation

We have 80 bedrooms and reduced

accommodation rates are available for your

guests. The demand for bedrooms is high,

therefore we ask you to check availability of

bedrooms at the time of making your

provisional booking.

We do not automatically book any

accommodation for your wedding guests; we

ask that a separate written letter of confirmation

is sent to the hotel requesting accommodation

when you confirm your Wedding Reception.

The maximum number of bedrooms allocated to

any one wedding will be 14.

A complimentary room will be booked for the

Bride and Groom.

f o u r t e e n


We can provisionally hold a date for a maximum of 14 days with

no obligation; this will allow you time to check with all relevant

authorities and necessary suppliers to ensure their availability. We will

send you a letter along with a wedding contract to confirm we are

holding the date.

In order to confirm your booking, we would require a non-refundable

deposit of £750, along with the signed wedding contract and a

written letter confirming your accommodation requirements.

We will contact you approximately 4 months prior to your wedding,

in order to arrange an appointment for you to meet with your

wedding planner and discuss your food and beverage choices. After

this meeting we will prepare an estimated cost for your day, of which

50% of the balance will be payable. The remaining balance will be

due 28 days prior to the wedding.
