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 one room where everyone can sit together?
3. Can a church bus or coach reach the building, and how many cars fit?
4. Which rooms and bathrooms work for a wheelchair or walker?
5. Are pets allowed?
