Cookie Policy

Last updated: 06/04/2026
This website uses cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, understand how it is used and improve user experience.

The ICO says PECR applies to cookies and similar technologies, whether or not they process personal data, and that users must be given clear information and, for non-essential cookies, an appropriate means to consent.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Some are necessary for the website to function. Others are used for analytics, preferences or marketing.

How we use cookies
We may use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential for the operation of the website, such as security, form submission, load balancing or remembering your cookie choices. These do not usually require consent.

Analytics cookies
These help us understand how visitors use the website so we can improve content and performance. We will only use these where appropriate consent has been given, unless a lawful exemption clearly applies.

Preference cookies
These remember choices you make, such as language or display preferences, where used.

Marketing or third-party cookies
These may be used by embedded third-party services or advertising/remarketing tools, where present. We will only use these where appropriate consent has been given.

The ICO says rejecting non-essential cookies should be as easy as accepting them, and non-essential cookies should not be set before consent.

Managing your choices
When you first visit the site, you will be given the option to:

  • accept all non-essential cookies
  • reject all non-essential cookies
  • manage your cookie preferences

You can also change your preferences later by clicking [Cookie Settings] in the footer.

Third-party services

Some pages may include third-party content or tools, such as:

  • booking tools
  • embedded video
  • analytics services
  • social media links or integrations

These third parties may set their own cookies. Please review their privacy and cookie information where relevant.

How to control cookies in your browser

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the website works.
