Please refer to the cancellation procedure above as to the process we’ll take to manage your Covid related cancellation.
You are welcome to cancel this booking within 4 hours of making it, if you do not wish to take this risk, but once your booking sits within the 30-day window prior to arrival, we can’t offer an instant refund if there is a Covid occurrence that prevents you from being able to check-in on your booked dates.
As mentioned, we of course will try and successfully re-book your existing dates. We place a cancellation vacancy on our socials, of which we have some 6 thousand followers on FB and Instagram. We do normally have a high success rate in re-booking last minute, but we just can’t guarantee it, I’m sorry!
Please feel welcome to call if you would like to discuss it at all with us.
