Ask before you book

Built from what the operator's page left open when we checked.

1. Is your stated capacity the permitted occupancy, or a count of every bed and sofa?
2. Is there a kitchen your group can use, and how many people can it feed at once?
3. Is there one room where everyone can sit together?
4. Can a church bus or coach reach the building, and how many cars fit?
5. Which rooms and bathrooms work for a wheelchair or walker?
6. Are pets allowed?
7. Is alcohol allowed on the property?
8. What is the full price, with cleaning fees and taxes?
