NEWS 1 September 2022 to 30 September 2022

2023 Accommodation Reservations at 2022 Rates.

 Unfortunately, it is becoming almost inevitable that Apartment charges will need to increase next year due to recent significant increases in energy and associated costs. Financiers are indicating inflation is expected to rise even further this year, peaking at 14%+ in October and beyond.

 All 2023 weekly accommodation (with fishing) reservations are available at the present 2022 rates until 31st October. We are aiming to publish all our 2023 rates on the 1st November.

 Should there be another “Lockdown” prior to your arrival, we will contact you to discuss refunding all monies paid or if you choose, retain your monies for a 2024 reservation at the 2022 rates quoted.
