If you are booking a Hotel package please note that if a room becomes single occupied, then this will hold a supplement fee of £50.00 per room, per night. The additional deposit will then be held.

We strongly recommend you take out holiday insurance.

The balance of your Hotel account is payable in full before departure, unless prior arrangement has been made for your account to be sent on for payment.
