COVID-19 Policy

 

We understand the current situation is beyond what any of us could ever imagine. Government advice is changing by the day and we are operating on a skeleton crew and shifting sand. After 6 years of trading, we operate with firm financial foundations and will be doing everything to ensure we will be here when this is all over! 

 

In the event of any cancellation or reschedule which has been brought on by government restrictions or by COVID-19 related issues, any booking fee that has been paid is non-refundable as per section 3.3 above.

 

However, to help during this unprecedented and challenging time we will do everything we can. We offer two solutions at present;   

 

1.Reschedule your event : We will offer you a reschedule at no extra cost. You can reschedule at least 24 hours prior to your booking date by email and telephone call. Your Booking Fee will be held on account and offset against your new booking. We will reschedule your booking on any available date at any point in the future. Where we will try to keep prices the same some costs may go up or even (we hope) go down (like fuel, stationary etc) so prices may vary in the distant future when you return.
