Full payment is taken 24 hours ahead of arrival. Please note we do not accept Amex. We accept Visa and Mastercard.

Card details are taken to secure the reservation

A pre-authorisation check will be run on these card details at least seven days ahead of arrival to confirm validity.

To avoid this scenario guests may opt to pay in full at the time of making their reservation. Please confirm in the Special Requests field if you wish to do this. Refunds are subject to a 3% admin fee

Policy on allergens

Management, kitchen and front-of-house teams are all allergy aware. Whilst every effort is made to serve dishes as allergen-free when requested, cross-contamination risks cannot be eliminated entirely and therefore our food may be unsuitable for those with severe allergies or intolerances. Please ask to see our allergen-management documentation at the time of your visit. It is advisable to warn us of any special dietary requirements ahead of your visit

Policy on children

Children 6+ years are welcome in the restaurant at any time, and in the bar at lunchtime and during the day. Children under 6 can use the Little Minster Room, and outside spaces. Please note that, due to space restrictions, pushchairs cannot be accommodated indoors. A high chair is available for use in the Little Minster Room

Policy on pets

Pets are welcome in the bar and on the outside areas but are not permitted in the restaurant or hotel rooms
