ACCOMMODATION
We have one Suite and a series of Premium Rooms and Superior Rooms available for you and your guests at preferential rates, which can be discussed with our Conference and Banqueting Sales Manager. However, please bear in mind that we do offer late discounts on line and you may find that we are offering greater discounts on-line nearer the time.
We regret that once a booking has been made we cannot change the rate. Group bookings are difficult to manage so we ask all guests to book individually and pay their own £20.00 pp to secure bookings.
All payments are Non-refundable.
CONDITIONS OF BOOKING
Provisional booking will be held for fourteen days or until a signed ‘Booking Contract’ is returned to The County with a Non-refundable deposit of £500.00.
Refer to cancellation policy on reverse of ‘Reservation form’. The full amount of anticipated costs for food and liquor should be settled in full four weeks before the Wedding based on final numbers. Any adjustments must be renegotiated with the hotel after this period & cancellation charges may apply if you have reduced the anticipated revenue for this function. A minimum of 80 people are charged for in the Ballroom, unless this has been agreed and stated on the Booking Contract.
The deposit will be taken off your account on the day of the function and your account will be adjusted accordingly. As per licensing law the bar will close at 11.30pm with any dancing finishing at midnight to minimise disturbing our residents.
Please note all ‘Conditions of ‘booking’ on the reverse of your ‘Reservation form’. All prices are correct at time of print, although The County reserves the right to change prices without prior notification. Bedrooms: we ask all guests to make their own individual booking and secure this with a £20.00 per person non-refundable deposit.
PRICES ARE CORRECT AT THE TIME OF PRINTING BUT THE HOTEL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CHANGE PRICES/DETAILS WITHOUT PRIOR NOTIFICATION. PLEASE CHECK DETAILS WHEN MAKING YOUR BOOKING.
We are always happy to offer alternatives where possible so please feel free to contact us and make an appointment to discuss your own personal thoughts and ideas for your Wedding Day.
