Data privacy has never been more important, and in light of a new regulation coming into effect across the EU on May 25th 2018, we have updated our Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy.

This new law is built around the principles of transparency and control, something we have always tried to provide.

So, to help you retain control of your data, our new policy offers more detail on what we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

We take your privacy very seriously and any personal data we hold has been acquired because you have contacted us about our products or services. This may be a booking enquiry, a request for information or a feedback notice.

We may hold an email address, a telephone number, a home address. We do not hold credit card or other financial information.

We never pass on or sell personal data.

You have the right to know what personal data we hold.

If you would like to know exactly what data we hold, please email us and we will respond in a timely manner.

If you would like us to delete any personal information, please contact us and we will do so immediately.
