How to bookPlease contact the establishment of your choice, stating the dates you require, the number of rooms and any dietary requirements you may have.

Serviced AccommodationUnless otherwise stated, prices quoted are per person and include full breakfast based upon two adults sharing a twin or double room, including VAT. If booking a single room you are advised to check with the establishment of your choice to see if a single room supplement is payable.

Self-Catering EstablishmentsPrices quoted are normally per unit based upon the maximum number of persons in the accommodation.

Touring, Camping and Caravan SitesPrices are normally quoted per pitch or unit; however, you should confirm this with the establishment of your choice.

Reductions for ChildrenPlease check with the individual establishments for children’s rates.

Cancelling a BookingWhen you accept accommodation, you may be entering into a legally binding contract with the proprietor of the establishment. If you cancel a reservation, fail to take up the booking or leave prematurely, the proprietor may be entitled to compensation if the accommodation cannot be re-let for all or a major part of the booked period. If a deposit has been paid it is likely to be forfeited

and an additional payment may be demanded. In the case of serviced accommodation, this is usually two-thirds of the contract price, one third being deducted for food not consumed and services not rendered.

Ratings you can TrustAll the accommodation featured in this guide has been quality assessed by either VisitBritain or the AA, or has recently applied for star rating and is awaiting assessment. Please be aware that ratings can change throughout the year. All the national assessing bodies (VisitBritain, VisitEngland, VisitScotland, VisitWales and the AA) now assess hotels and guest accommodation (including B&Bs) to the same criteria and award one to five stars. The star ratings reflect the overall quality of the experience. The assessors visit every year, carrying out a routine day visit or an overnight stay in the case of serviced accommodation. On these occasions, they book in as you would, as a normal guest and test all the facilities and services. A quality score is awarded for every aspect of the experience including the comfort of the bed, the quality of the breakfast and dinner and most importantly, the cleanliness. They also score on the warmth of welcome. For serviced accommodation, there are two separate schemes – one for hotels and one for guest accommodation.

Hotels have to be licensed, offer dinner at least five nights a week (unless categorised as a Metro Hotel) and have all rooms en-suite or with private bathrooms.

Places that ‘go the extra mile’ to make your stay a special one will be awarded high star rating, and hotels and guest accommodation may achieve a Gold or Silver award or red diamonds.

Further Information and ComplaintsMore information and verification on ratings is available by visiting www.enjoyengland.com or www.theAA.com.If you have any issues or complaints that have not been resolved by the proprietor/manager and which you would like to bring to our attention, please write to:
