Soiling & breakages

Please note that any soiling or breakages found following departure will be charged either by invoice sent to the guest’s registered address or by a further charge to the guest’s credit card after departure.

Dog policy

We welcome well-behaved dogs in both our dog-friendly accommodation and in our dog-friendly area for breakfast. We ask that you ensure that your dog is considerate to other guests, and that if you choose to leave your dog in your accommodation whilst you dine, that it will not disturb the other residents or become distressed. If you do bring more than one dog, we would appreciate if guests could ensure that the dogs will not cause extra noise through interacting with each other. Not all guests in our cottages and static homes have dogs themselves, and those who do also appreciate your consideration in this matter.

Please also be considerate with your dog waste, and dispose of it in the bags provided (or your own bags) and in an appropriate location, and please do not leave bags in our grounds without disposing of them in a waste bin.

Smoking policy

In line with new UK legislation, the hotel buildings including public areas, bedrooms, static homes and cottages are non-smoking. This includes E-cigarettes. For guests who do not comply with our non-smoking policy: following departure, we will levy a charge either by invoice sent to the guest’s registered address or by a further charge to the guest’s credit card for deep cleaning and the dry cleaning of linens.

Service charge

Any person/persons found to have occupied an extra bed without prior agreement with the hotel, will be subject to a £55 service charge.

Zero tolerance

The Oxwich Bay Hotel has a zero tolerance policy for physical or verbal abuse to staff or customers. We reserve the right to refuse to serve or accommodate any customer who is behaving in such a manner towards a member of staff or another customer. Please be aware that customers behaving in an inappropriate or threatening manner may be evicted from the premises and the police may be involved.

Behaviour

The Oxwich Bay Hotel reserves the right to refuse admittance, service or accommodation into the hotel or may remove a person who, while on the premises of the hotel, acts in an obviously intoxicated or disorderly manner, destroys or threatens to destroy hotel property, or causes or threatens to cause a public disturbance, or refuses or is unable to pay for the accommodation or services.

We reserve the right to levy an additional charge (“disturbance compensation charge”) where guest behaviour or disturbances caused by a guest (or a guest’s dog) lead to complaints from other guests for which the hotel is required to offer compensation to other guests because of the detrimental effect on the other guests’ stay. The additional charge will be limited to the total of the compensation given to other guests. This is in addition the “soiling and breakage” clause, so both charges may be levied if applicable.

Alcohol and illegal substances

Any person or persons found either possessing, using or distributing any illegal substances will be banned from these premises and reported to the police.

No alcohol may be brought into the hotel or hotel grounds by clients, their guests or representatives for consumption or sale on the premises without the express written consent of the hotel. If permission is granted in advance, a corkage charge will be levied.

Lost property

Lost or unclaimed property will be donated to charity every month. Unfortunately if we do not hear from you, or you do not collect your items from us by this time, we will not hold it.

You may transfer your own luggage between rooms where there is a room transfer during your stay. We may offer to move luggage for you, as a courtesy for your convenience and as part of our customer service; however, we do not accept responsibility for items that are subsequently found missing or misplaced. We will ensure that 2 members of staff together move all items. You can offer to accompany us during this transfer, or send a representative, for your own security

Liability

With the exception of death or personal injury caused by the hotel, its employees or agents, liability is limited to the price of the booking.

We do not accept liability for failure to meet any of our obligations where such failure is due to events beyond our reasonable control.

The hotel does not accept responsibility for damage or theft to or of vehicles parked on the premises.

Under the Hotel Proprietors Act 1956, an hotel proprietor may in certain circumstances be liable to make good any loss of or damage to a guest’s property even though it was not due to any fault of the proprietor or staff of the hotel.

This liability however:

  • Extends only to the property of guests who have engaged sleeping accommodation at the hotel;
  • Is limited to £50 for any one article and a total of £100 in the case of any one guest, except in the case of property which has been deposited, or offered for deposit, for safe custody;
  • Does not cover motor-cars or other vehicles of any kind or any property left in them, or horses or other live animals.


This notice does not constitute an admission either that the Act applies to this hotel or that liability there under attaches to the proprietor of this hotel in any particular case.

Data protection

Upon making and confirming a reservation, the guest consents to the processing of their personal information. Data collated about any individual or company will be used primarily to fulfil any service the guest has requested from us, for example to make a booking. The second function would be for internal marketing purposes.

Under no circumstances do we give personal data to third parties. However, unless specifically stated not to then we (the hotel), will use your data to send you further information from ourselves.
