Your cookie choices

Five purposes, plainly named. One of them is the site working at all; the other four are ours to justify and yours to refuse. Refusing takes the same single click as accepting, and you can change your mind on any page of this site — the link sits in the footer, permanently.

Consent record 2026-09-30 · nothing stored until you answer.

What we set, and why

Each card says who receives the data, how long it is kept, and what actually stops working if you decline.

Strictly necessary

Always on

Your basket, your booking session, and the record of the answer you give here. Without these the site cannot take an order at all.

Who: Nobody outside this company — except on the payment page, where our payment provider sets its own cookies to prevent fraud.
Kept: Your basket until it expires; your consent record for as long as the order it belongs to.
If off: This one cannot be turned off, and we are not going to pretend it can. Nothing here is used for advertising.

Measurement

Which pages people read, where a booking gets abandoned, and which campaign or website brought you here, so we can fix the step that is failing and stop paying for what does not work.

Who: Us (a cookie recording where you came from), and Google Analytics.
Kept: Our cookie ninety days; Google Analytics data fourteen months, its cookies thirteen.
If off: Nothing changes for you. We lose the ability to see which page lost you, and we find out by asking instead.

Advertising

Measuring whether an advertisement led to a booking, including the click identifier an advertisement adds to its link, so we know which ones to stop paying for.

Who: Google Ads, and Google's advertising cookie.
Kept: Its cookie ninety days; the measurement up to fourteen months.
If off: You will see the same number of advertisements elsewhere; we simply will not know whether ours worked.

Sending your data to our advertising provider

Whether identifiers about this visit may be sent to our advertising provider at all.

Who: Google Ads.
Kept: Up to fourteen months.
If off: Nothing about this visit is sent. Conversions are counted, if at all, only in aggregate and without you.

Personalised advertising

Whether what you looked at here may be used to choose which advertisements you are shown elsewhere.

Who: Google Ads.
Kept: Up to fourteen months.
If off: You still see advertisements. They are chosen without reference to anything you did on this site.

These buttons are the same size and the same weight, on purpose. Refusing is not the harder option here.

The four rules this surface obeys

Equal weight, always

Accept, reject and choose are one size, one typeface, one border. Nothing is bigger, brighter or lower-contrast than its neighbour.

Nothing pre-ticked

Every optional purpose starts off. No “legitimate interest” toggles hiding a second consent list behind the first.

Leaving is as easy as arriving

A permanent footer link on every page, one click to withdraw everything non-essential. No support email, no form.

Asked once, not on a schedule

The banner appears once per device per consent version. It returns only when the list of purposes actually changes.

On the money path

Consent is settled before anybody reaches the payment step

A guest with money on the table does not get a dialog over the card field. If somebody arrives straight at checkout with no record on this device, the ask docks beneath the form as a slim strip: the same three choices, the same weights, no scrim, never modal, and gone once the pay button is armed.

Essential purposes carry the order; they need no permission and are never in the strip.
No scrim, no focus trap, nothing that can swallow a keystroke meant for the card field.
Once the pay button is armed the strip does not appear at all — it waits for the confirmation.
The terms version and the locale go on the order itself, which is a contract record, not a cookie choice.

How Google is told your answer

Consent Mode

We use Basic Consent Mode

Nothing from Google loads until you answer, and nothing at all if you decline. Configured today: Basic. It is a setting rather than something written into the site, so a change is one value and no code.

What we don’t do

No consent wall — the site is readable and bookable whatever you answer.
No scroll, no click, no “continuing means you agree”. Consent is a button being pressed.
No vendor-default sizing landing on our pages in someone else’s typeface.
No cookie counts or “partners” lists in place of a reason.
No re-asking a guest who said no, on the day they travel.
