Unpaid mini-bar consumption, unpaid extra guests, unpaid dog fees, unexpected additional cleaning (including, but not limited to bodily fluids) and the extremely unlikely event of property damage or theft.

Our Guest App, has a chat and whatsap function so that you can ask us anything and phone us anytime. We will also use our Guest App, to pre authorize your refundable security deposit payment, or help with adding extras like breakfasts or spa sessions to your stay. Our rooms are all self-checkin, and our Guest App contains instructions, photos and videos to help you with most queries.

You may have noticed that our pricing is 'per guest' - so the more guests added to your booking the higher the booking cost per night. This is called 'per guest' pricing.

Please keep in mind that beds and bedding will be prepared for the exact number of guests on your booking to reflect this pricing structure.

As we have mini-bars in our rooms, we require a preauthorised credit or debit card on file before checking you into the Manor to pay for room consumption. You will be sent a secure link prior to arrival to submit your card details online.
