HOTEL POLICIES

Reservation Policy – Accommodation

All reservations must be confirmed by the provision of valid credit card details to guarantee the booking. Payment will be debited at the time of arrival., or on booking should you prefer.  Invoice payments are available for those with an account.  Group bookings and long-term bookings may be subject to a deposit, agreed in advance.

Cancellation Policy - Accommodation
Should it be necessary for a booking to be cancelled, our cancellation policy for individual bookings is that a 100% charge of the room rate will be made, if the reservation is cancelled after 09:00, within seven days of the arrival date.

For larger groups, long-term bookings, or bookings made months in advance, a separate cancellation policy will be made, and a non-refundable deposit may be requested. This will be agreed at the time of booking.

Check in
Craigard House Hotel is flexible in offering accommodation as and when required. While the standard check in time is from 2.30 pm, we recognise that many people will require an early or late arrival. For early arrivals, if the room is not yet ready, we will take luggage to the room and ensure that this room is serviced as a priority.

For late arrivals, we would appreciate if you could phone ahead +44 1586 554242 to give an indication of your arrival time.  Should dinner be required,  we will make every effort to keep the Restaurant open for you – or alternatively provide an agreed meal upon arrival.  (Standard Dinner Service 6-9pm).

Check out
Standard check out time is 11:00, by which time all guest rooms should be vacated. In exceptional circumstances, please discuss later departure with Lori or Roger. Early check outs (and breakfasts) can be accommodated, or perhaps a packed ‘lunch’ instead of breakfast is more suitable?  Please just ask. Sometimes it may be more convenient to check out financially the evening before departure. Again we are flexible in this respect.

Smoking Policy
In line with legislation, Craigard House Hotel's public areas are strictly no smoking areas. We would request that guests please respect this policy in all hotel bedrooms, as the Craigard House Hotel is a smoke-free zone.  The smoke alarm system is extremely sensitive.

Pet Policy
Please check with us first before bringing a pet. Craigard House Hotel welcomes well-behaved pets at no charge, but we do reserve the right to make a charge if necessary. In light of recent events, cats must not be left unsupervised in rooms, except in a container!  Please – no snakes or creepy crawlies!!!
