Whilst our aim is to please all our customers, we do not have the capacity to honour all requests.

Please be prepared to be flexible and by all means let us know at the time of booking if you have a preferred area but bear in mind we can never guarantee a specific request. This is to allow for the smooth running of the site for all and to ensure we do not promise anything we cannot deliver in case of unexpected issues arising.
