Visiting from afar? Helpful information for planning your trip.
Booking
Upon booking, if you choose to pay through direct bank transfer your bank may require our 'SWIFT' or 'IBAN' code to make the payment, this will be detailed on your booking form. We will then require your 'SWIFT' or 'IBAN' code to return your security deposit to you. For international bank transfers the bank deducts approximately £15 in fees, therefore when we receive your payment it will be less £15 (approx, subject to exchange rates). Therefore when we return your £150 deposit it will be less £15 (approx, subject to exchange rates). We feel this is a fair way to share the fees rather than you taking full liability. If you have any questions regarding this please feel free to contact us.
