Fees and Accommodation

Non-Member Surcharge: SCA members are automatically covered under the Society’s insurance. Unfortunately, we must charge non-members a separate fee of £3 per calendar day that they attend, to cover them and the Society for insurance purposes. Your membership must be current at the time of the event, not just at the time of booking. Create or renew your membership at this link prior to the booking closing date and save the surcharge. Membership is only £15 per year (£29 for a family), whilst the surcharge for the full event is £9. You must arrange your membership separately as we cannot do it as part of the event booking.

ON-SITE ACCOMMODATIONS (per person for two nights)

£50 B&B Main House

£20 Tower Bunk

Rooms in the main house will be allocated on a lottery system. A few rooms will be set aside and lotteried separately for those with relevant access needs. The lottery will take place 48 hours after bookings open, so please ensure you book promptly if you require accommodation. If the booking is for two or more people, only one person from the pair or group will be entered into the lottery, to make it fairer. If the winner is part if a couple or group, the whole party is in. You will be notified of the outcome of the lottery by email.

Those who do not get a bed in the lottery, will be offered a tower bunk and added to the waiting list. Anyone booking after 48 hours will also get added to the waiting list in the traditional manner.

Tower bunks will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

ACCOMMODATION CONFIRMATION: Accommodation fees must be paid in full by 15 October. No accommodation is confirmed until full payment is received. If full payment is not received by 15 October, that accommodation will be released to the wait list.

CANCELLATIONS: All fees (event and accommodation) must be paid in full by 22 November. Any cancellation received after 22 November is non-refundable, unless we can resell the booking. Payment will be accepted via BACS transfer. Please contact us for the account details.

ACCESSIBILITY INFORMATION: This is a period site, and as such is not uniformly accessible.

Please note that accommodation in the main house is limited. There is only one level-access room, with two twin beds. Tower bunks are dormitory-style, and up a narrow spiral staircase. Due to the limited number of beds suitable for those with access needs, unfortunately the event team cannot guarantee that your needs will be met, but we will do our best!

Main House Access: The bed & breakfast rooms are located in the Victorian house. The ground floor of the house is fully accessible on the flat, although one room requires going around the outside of the house unless you can manage a single step. There is one twin bedroom on the ground floor available on a first come, first served basis to attendees who are unable to manage stairs. Unfortunately this room is the only universally accessible accommodation available on site.
There is a selection of bedrooms on the first floor of the house accessible via a wide, shallow staircase.
Lighting in the house is subdued, except in the library.

Tower Access: The Tower (high) Hall is accessed by five shallow steps. The bunks are located on the first and second floors of the tower and accessed by a spiral staircase. Each bunk room contains ten double tier bunks (twenty beds). There are full toilet, shower and washing facilities on both floors. Dormitory bunks require you to bring bedding. If luggage capacity is a problem, please let us know at least two weeks in advance so that we can arrange to supply bedding. The tower stairs and accommodation is well lit. Please do not venture beyond the second floor as the roof is locked and the stairs have not been renovated.
The Tower kitchen can be accessed by going down the same spiral staircase or via an external ramp and a couple of steps once indoors. Unless helping with the cooking or serving, you should not need to access the kitchen.

Gatehouse Access: Gatehouse accommodation is only accessible via stairs with dim lighting, one only via external stairs.
