If there is a same-day changeover prior to your arrival, the hot tub may require approximately 6–8 hours to reach its full temperature. Whilst we always aim to have it ready as soon as possible, it may not be fully heated on the first evening of your stay.
Please note that check-in is available between 4:00 pm and 9:00 pm. If you arrive after 9:00 pm, our office will be closed and our team will not be available to assist by phone, as we are unable to provide out-of-hours support.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Hot Tub Use
To ensure a peaceful environment for both our guests and our neighbours, the hot tub is available for use until 10:00 PM each evening. We kindly ask all guests to respect this restriction and avoid using the hot tub after 10:00 PM. This helps us maintain good relationships with our local community and ensures everyone can enjoy a relaxing stay.
