Granting us permission to use cookies

On installation all modern browsers are set to accept cookies in some form or another. To help you make the decision we advise you, through a cookie notice, that the site uses cookies while offering you a link to this page so you can make a better informed choice.

Should you wish to not allow cookies from our site, you are able to make that decision via the cookie notice when you first come to the site, however doing so will likely mean that our site may not work as you would expect, such as being unable to make an online booking or use the chat box to communicate with us in realtime.

Do you want to stop cookies from this site being saved on your computer?

As we have said above, cookies are used on this site to make the site work better and we are committed to using cookies responsibly. There are essential cookies and non-essential cookies, for instance if you declined cookies in the cookie notice your browser would need to have a cookie placed on it to say that was your decision. This is an example of an essential cookie.

If you are really anti-cookies then you can either choose to not use our site or perhaps better still (bearing in mind that most websites use them) you can configure your browser to block all cookies for all sites or just from the sites you are concerned about. This is really the only way to stop the use of cookies.

Most modern browsers will also let you clear your cookies when you close them, this way you get the ease of use that comes with allowing cookies but nothing is stored on your computer afterwards. This would mean you would need to log back in to any online accounts, such as Facebook, Instagram, etc. but would be a good compromise.
