Cancellation Policy

Please note our cancellation policy is 30 days (60 days for stays of 7 or more nights). We are a small, family run property and cancellations have an adverse impact on our business, as rooms are often difficult to re-book at the last minute. With this in mind, guests are advised to consider travel insurance to cover any potential disruptions to their travel plans. This policy applies regardless of COVID-19. The following cancellation policy applies to all reservations:

  1. Single night bookings, same day bookings and no-shows are non-refundable and there is no credit given for future stays.

  2. Failure to check in by 8:00pm (or the alternate check-in time as agreed with the property in writing) on the check-in date, is deemed a no-show and results in the automatic cancellation of a reservation. The room becomes available for immediate re-booking from that time.

  3. If you change or cancel your booking 30 or less days prior (60 days for stays of 7 or more nights) to check-in, you will not get a refund or credit to use for future stays.

  4. If you change or cancel your booking 31 or more days prior (61 days for stays of 7 or more nights) to check-in, you will incur an administration fee equivalent to the first nights stay, with the balance refundable. Merchant processing fees are non-refundable.

  5. Please allow up to 10 business days for merchant processing and bank time frames, for any refund to be completed. A refund receipt/notification will be issued to the same email address provided in the booking form. Credit card processing fees incurred by us, are not refunded.
