Pets must be kept in the room at all times and should not wander around the Inn, especially the dining room, as other guest may not like them.
Pets left in the room MUST be kept in a travel kennel or cage. There are no exceptions.
If you do not have a travel cage or kennel, we have one spare in house but if this is not available or not suitable then we reserve the right to refuse the booking if no cage can be found for the pet.
Pets are NOT allowed on ANY furniture, especially the beds. Any mess or damage to the room or fixture and fitting caused by the pet, will be charged to your final bill or forwarded to you after check-out.
(As a guide the basic cleaning charge is $50 and damage is rated on the type of damage caused)
When outside please clean up after your pet. Bags are available at reception and refuse should be deposited in the dumpster outside.
We reserve the right to refuse entry and/or cancel reservations to any pet and owner who show aggressive tendencies.
