The balance must be paid by the date stated on your booking confirmation or invoice. Failure to pay by this date may result in cancellation of your booking and loss of any monies paid.

All payments must be made in pounds sterling (£).
We accept payment by debit/credit card, bank transfer, or cash by prior arrangement.
