How To Book

When you do, it would be really helpful if you could have the following details to hand:
- The name of the person bringing the group
- School's details i.e. name, address and telephone number
- The dates you would like to visit
- How many adults/children are visiting
- Whether you would like to book a morning or afternoon session. (If it’s a morning session, whether you would like space to eat lunch)
- Special requirements i.e. access
- Whether the children/adults have any special requirements
When the booking process has been completed, we will send you an invoice and booking confirmation sheet. Please note that until you have received, this the booking is not confirmed.
