Cancellation
Plans change, and that is fine
- You can cancel a request or an approved booking at any time before it begins, using the link in your e-mail, without giving a reason. Please cancel at least 24 hours in advance, so that someone else can book the slot.
- If you would like a different slot, cancel your existing booking and send a new request. A cancelled slot is released in the calendar straight away.
- The City may cancel or move an approved booking because of events at the castle, works or unforeseen circumstances. It will let you know by e-mail as early as possible and, where it can, suggest a new slot.
- Sessions are not cancelled automatically because of the weather. The decision is yours.
