Depending on the circumstances, we process your information because:

• You have provided consent, where consent is required.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

When you make a booking through our website, the information you provide is used to process and manage your reservation.

Online payments are processed using PayPal. Payment information entered into PayPal’s payment service is processed by PayPal in accordance with its own privacy and security policies.

Where necessary to manage accommodation availability and bookings, information may be processed using third-party services and booking platforms, including Booking.com, Airbnb, PayPal and our website booking and hosting providers.

7. Cookies & Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to ensure that it functions correctly and, where applicable, to understand how visitors use the website.

You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie controls provided on the website and through your browser settings.

8. How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including managing bookings and enquiries and meeting legal, accounting and tax obligations.

Different categories of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

When personal information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted or anonymised where appropriate.

9. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, loss or misuse.

While appropriate measures are taken to protect information, no method of transmitting or storing information online can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
