What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies (such as local storage and pixels) may be used for comparable purposes. In this policy, we refer to all of these as “cookies”.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- make the website work properly (essential functions);
- remember preferences (such as language choices);
- understand how the website is used and improve it (analytics), where enabled;
- support security and prevent abuse.
You will see a cookie notice on the site.
Types of cookies we use
A. Strictly necessary cookies
These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take (such as setting privacy preferences, navigating pages, or submitting forms).
B. Preference cookies
These remember choices you make (for example, language or region) to provide a more consistent experience.
C. Analytics cookies (optional)
These help us understand how visitors use the site (e.g. which pages are most popular, how users move around). We use this information to improve performance and content. These cookies are used only where you have given consent, if required.
D. Marketing cookies (optional, if enabled)
These are used to track visitors across websites to display relevant advertising. If we do not run advertising or remarketing, we do not use these cookies.
Cookie list
Because the exact cookies depend on the services enabled at any time (and can change after updates), we maintain a cookie list as part of our cookie banner or consent tool where possible.
As a minimum, your WordPress/browser session may set:
- cookies needed to store your cookie preferences;
- security/session cookies;
- language or UI preference cookies.
If you would like a fully enumerated cookie table (name, provider, purpose, duration), the most reliable approach is to export the cookie scan from your consent tool or run a controlled scan in a staging environment after updates. (This avoids publishing an inaccurate list.)
Managing cookies
You can manage cookies in three ways:
- Cookie notice / preferences
Use the cookie notice on the site to accept or reject optional cookies (where available). - Browser settings
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect site functionality. - Device controls
On mobile devices, you may be able to limit tracking via operating system privacy settings.
Third-party cookies and booking partners
When you click “Book now” or use booking functionality that is provided by a third party, you may be redirected to, or load components from, external booking services. Those providers may set their own cookies and process personal data under their own privacy notices.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in cookies or legal requirements.
