  • Can you provide seperate beds for two adult males staying Friday 29th to Sunday 31st January, same room is okay.

    We do have a foldout bed that can be put in our Lavender room, however it is not quite as comfortable as the queen size bed. Because we are looking at 3 nights accommodation, there will be no charge for that service.
