Cheriton Guest House Room Booklet

Car park

With a little cooperation the car park, though small, can accommodate most of our guests' vehicles . However, you should be prepared to be called upon when necessary to move your car should it cause the obstruction of other vehicles and it is essential that you leave a set of keys with us should you go out and leave the car in such a situation. Alternatively there is parking available in the side roads close to the house.

Breakfast

Breakfast is served between 8.30 and 9.00am. An early breakfast can be arranged on request. Please have a look at the menu in advance and note that some items need to be ordered the evening before to ensure availability.

Check out and room cleaning

Guests are required to check out by 10am. Rooms are serviced each day between 10am and 2.00pm.

Towels.

In the interest of conserving water we would hope that you may consider using your towels for more than one day. If you require your towels changing please place them in the shower tray and they will be changed when the rooms are serviced.

Ironing

An iron and ironing board can be made available upon request.

Fire alarm

Please note the fire alarm points. If the fire bell rings please leave the building by the nearest exit. Please do not assume that it is a false alarm. Please read the instructions available in the room and be aware of the procedures and meeting points that need to be used in the event of an evacuation.

Keys

Guests are given a room key and keys to the front door. We would always advise guests to lock their rooms when they are not occupying them.

In the event of being out of the house after 10pm at night please make sure that you have a front door key with you. The front door has a yale lock and hence will automatically lock itself when you close the door behind you. The key only needs to be used to open the door when you approach it from outside the house.

Smoking

Please remember that it is against the law to smoke in a public building and people who fail to observe the law will be required to leave the Guest House ( see terms and conditions). We would also ask that if guests need to go outside to smoke they go to the back of the house and refrain from smoking in the area around the front of the property. Your cooperation in this matter will be most gratefully appreciated.

Tea and Coffee

Tea and coffee are available in the room, you will also find extra provisions available in the hall table drawer, along with a selection of fruit and herbal teas.

Sachets of milk are available in the rooms, however if you would like to use fresh milk then you will find small jugs and milk available in the chiller unit in the dining room.

Hot take away food

Please don't take hot takeaway food into the guest rooms. By arrangement we will be more than happy to clear a table in the dining room to enable you to eat in comfort.

Wi Fi

The house has a wireless network and a password can be made available to you upon registration when you arrive. The signal should be adequate in all parts of the house but if any difficulties arise with the signal then you might try logging on in the dining room area where you will be closer to the router.

Garden

Please feel free to use the garden at all times, but please take care on the steps and more particularly if you venture down the steep steps to the river platform at the end of the garden. You are welcome to bring your own food and picnic in the garden and you are equally welcome to use the BBQ equipment by arrangement.

Contacting us

There are two bell pushes, one near the hall table and one near the kitchen door. We will also generally have the mobile phone with us so, if all else fails, make a call.
