We apologise for the inconvenience caused during the week with regards to the phone lines and lack of broadband.

We have switched to fibre and we experienced every possible conundrum along the way.

Suffice to say we are now up and running and we have of course kept our same phone number.

For enquiries/bookings please call us on 01206 729307 where one of our team will be happy to assist.

Our email is also fully operational

We have updated the format of our Christmas hours as we've had quite a few enquiries regarding bar hours.

Please feel free to message us if you have any queries.
