Use of Tools/”Cookies” and Links To Other Websites

Our website(s) will contain links to third-party websites or micro-sites not controlled or owned by us.

Please read their applicable terms and conditions, etc. carefully.

What is a cookie?

Cookies are small files that are sent to your browser, for example, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Firefox. They are stored on your computer’s hard disk and only identify your computer, and not you personally.

The default location for these files is:
Windows: c:\Documents and Settings\{your_username}\Cookies
Mac: Users\{your_username}\Library\Cookies

There are two main purposes of cookies. The first is to add functionality like shopping carts, logging in as a particular user, remembering preferences and sharing links via social media. Secondly, cookies are used by website owners to collect usage data and provide personalised suggestions and information.

How do we use cookies?

Cookies help to speed up the booking process so that you do not need to re-type the same information again and again. If you are making a purchase we will also use cookies to keep track of the transaction from one page to the next. We do not store any personal information in the cookie. We also collect information relating to customer use and patterns. We use cookies and software tools to capture, measure and analyse site usage and related information.

When you are on our website, we use cookies to provide you with a more personal experience. In other words, we use it to do things like remember what you’ve searched for (rather than typing it again when a new page loads) and to remember saved/recently searched accommodation. If you come back to the site at a later date then you’ll be able to see any properties you have been researching recently.

When you are online but not using our website, to help us deliver advertising effectively and avoid repeating adverts, we work with carefully selected third parties who we allow to employ cookies on our site, on our behalf. These cookies allow us to provide advertising on other websites that are more relevant to a user’s interests. The information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain a user’s name, address, telephone number or email address.

If you receive our emails, we tailor the information we send you based on the data our cookies have collected from your recent visits to our website. You can opt-out of this in any marketing email we send.
