Booking Details
for Courses, B&B and Venue Hire

Monkton Wyld is a great place for families to stay - surrounded by spectacular countryside in walking distance of the Jurassic coast. Come for vegetarian bed and breakfast, take part in one of our courses, or simply book the whole house for a tailor-made event to suit your needs!

To book, download a course booking form or an accommodation booking form and post it along with your deposit cheque. We do recommend that you email or phone to check availability first, especially if your course or stay is within two weeks' time! Please note that we cannot guarantee course placement until a deposit of one third of the cost is received.

To find out more about the various venue booking options available, please get in touch by email or give us a call. We look forward to helping you get the most out of all the Court has to offer.

Until we receive your deposit, all course bookings are treated as provisional and will be held for 7 days. Please note that all deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. The balance is due one month before the workshop begins, and is non-returnable in the case of cancellation.

Making payments

Unfortunately we don't take credit card payments for bookings at present. Cheques or postal orders should be made payable to Monkton Wyld Court. If you are booking from abroad and wish to arrange a bank transfer, please contact us for details. B&B guests planning to pay the balance on arrival are kindly asked to be sure to bring a chequebook or sufficient cash.

Accommodation

For courses:
Accommodation is in shared rooms of two to six beds. We have a limited number of twin rooms that can be booked for single occupancy subject to a single room supplement of £12.50 per night. These are available on a first come first served basis. Sheets are provided but please bring a towel.

For B&B:
There is no single room supplement for B&B bookings. All bedding and towels are provided.

We regret that we are unable to accommodate pets.

Non-residential course bookings

All courses can be attended on a non-residential basis. Non-residents are charged two thirds of the full fee, which covers the cost of the course, lunch and dinner but not accommodation or breakfast.

Hours

Arrival time is between 4pm and 6pm on the first day for a course, and we ask you to leave by 4pm on the last day. Usually the first workshop session starts at 7.30 or 8pm.

We ask that B&B guests arrive between the hours of 3 and 7pm and vacate your rooms by 10am on the morning of your last day.

Late arrivals and absences

We regret that reductions or reimbursements cannot be made in respect of late arrival, early departure or absence during any part of the course.

The evening meal is served at 6pm, unless other arrangements have been made for a particular course. If you are going to be late arriving, please contact us as soon as possible, as we can usually put plates aside. Guests are asked to arrive no later than 9pm, however, as we do not tend to be on duty any later than that.

Meals

We provide a serve-yourself breakfast, lunch at 1pm and supper at 6pm. All food is vegetarian and mainly organically grown. We can cater for vegan diets and food allergies with advance notice, but cannot accommodate individual dietary preferences.

Balance of fees

We will send you a confirmation of booking on receipt of your deposit. Balance of fees is due one month before the start of the course. If the balance is not received by then, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation, in which case normal cancellation terms will apply. Please notify us if you anticipate late payment.

Concessions

Funding permitting, concessions are available for those on low incomes, such as those in receipt of Housing Benefit, Jobseekers Allowance, Income Support or Tax Credits. Please note that evidence of status will be required on application. If you are unsure of your eligibility, please contact us. All applications will be treated in the strictest of confidence.

Cancellations

If you need to cancel your booking, please notify us in writing as soon as possible. Cancellation is effective from the date of receiving written notification. If cancellation is made less than one month prior to the start of the course, whether deliberately or by default, then the balance of fees is due in full. This condition is accepted when booking is confirmed. Balance may be transferred to another course within one year of cancellation if notification is received more than one month prior to the course start date.

Monkton Wyld Court reserves the right to postpone or cancel a course or change a course leader in the event of illness or for any other reason. We will refund or transfer any deposits or balances paid in accordance with the wishes of the client. The decision to cancel will normally be taken no less than one week prior to the course start date.

Acceptance

Monkton Wyld Court reserves the right to refuse a booking without stating a reason.
