Cancellation Policy
Deposit for group day bookings: £50 (non-refundable) Deposit for residential bookings: £20 per person (non-refundable) Your booking will not be confirmed until we have received your deposit. As these deposits are non-refundable, we strongly recommend that you take out cancellation insurance. Late cancellations severely compromise our budget, and deprive others of the opportunity to book. We obviously don’t like asking you for money if you have to cancel, but nor does it feel right to ask others to make up the shortfall when suitable cover would have been available. We currently offer payments facilities of cash, cheques or internet banking. Apologies but we cannot accept credit or debit cards because of excessive bank charges.
Times of prayers in Church
Morning prayers are at 8 a.m. when we open the Church. Evening prayer is at 5 pm when the church is closed. The Franciscan Daily Offices are used.
These times are the normal practice (except Monday and Tuesday) but could be subject to variation depending on the availability of staff.
