THE AVALON – ADDITIONAL RULES
No parties allowed.
NOISE & NEIGHBOURS
Please be considerate of our neighbours and the local community.
Tintagel is a quiet town at night and sound carries surprisingly well. Many of our neighbours are working local residents rather than holidaymakers.
Noise, music and outside activity must be kept at a reasonable level at all times.
Quiet hours are from 11:00pm. Noise outside must be kept to an absolute minimum during quiet hours.
Guests must comply promptly with any reasonable request to reduce excessive noise or disturbance.
WOOD-FIRED HOT TUB
Before using the hot tub, the Lead Guest must complete and sign The Avalon Wood-Fired Hot Tub Terms of Use & User Agreement.
Link will be messaged to you 5 days before arrival.
The Lead Guest is responsible for ensuring that everyone using the hot tub is aware of and complies with the Hot Tub Terms and Rules.
The hot tub is unsupervised.
