What cookies are
Cookies are small files stored on your device by a website. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and session storage, which work the same way. In this policy “cookies” covers all of them.
Why we use them
Some cookies are needed to run the website — keeping your booking basket, moving you securely through checkout and keeping our staff signed in. Others are optional: they help us understand how the site is used and measure our advertising. Optional cookies are only used if you consent, and you can change your mind at any time.
Strictly Necessary — always active
These are required for the site to work and cannot be switched off.
