  • Could we book a double room but bring a travel cot? Rather then booking a family room? Three of us in total (includes baby under 1). Thanks

    Most of our rooms are large enough for a travel cot, and you can choose either to bring your own or we have them here if you prefer. You will need to bring bedding. Please just highlight when booking so we can allocate an appropriate room.
