Prices

The price includes accommodation and breakfast between 08.15 & 09.00. Unless clearly stated on the booking confirmation form, all extras such as additional meals, are at an extra cost. Our diary has to remain fluid at all times, this means you may end up using an alternative room from the one you may have booked, this is to cover all eventualities.

We do not accept pets at Herriot’s Guest House.

Children & Babies

Children are charged at the same rate as adults. For the comfort of other guests, parents are expected to supervise their children at all times. If you are bringing your young baby, please inform us at the time of booking and they must be able to sleep throughout the night- without disturbing others.

Parking

There is an unloading/ loading bay immediately to the front of our building, for you to unload your luggage; we then suggest you try to park on the small one-way system or wherever else is available, mid afternoon onwards there’s not usually any problem within 75m of Herriot’s, without any time restrictions.

We ask guests to arrive between 16:00 and 19:00. Arrivals outside this time are usually possible, but only by prior arrangement. If you are delayed and/or expect to arrive later than 19:00, please ensure that you contact us (01969 667536) to let us know what time you expect to arrive. We do not accept any arrivals after 10pm.

Damage and Breakages

Please take care when staying at Herriot’s Guest House. You are responsible and liable for any breakages or damage which you cause to the accommodation and/or its contents.

For cancellations made more than 14 days before the arrival date, you will not be liable for any further outstanding balance (exclusive of 1st nights deposit). For cancellations made within 14 days of the arrival date or by failing to take up the booking without cancelling (i.e. ‘no-show’), you will be liable for the total outstanding balance.
