COURTYARD AND OLD BUILDINGS
We are an ancient inn – so please take care on all surfaces, some of which are stone and can be uneven or slippery.
PAYMENTS
We accept cash and all major European cards, including American Express in the pub and dining rooms. Payment is by card only for our Guest Rooms. We do not accept payment by cheque or traveller’s cheque.
CAR PARKING
We have a large car park at the rear of the Pub, which all guests are able to use. Please inform the manager on duty if any vehicles are to be left overnight by guests who are not staying with us. All vehicles and their contents are left solely at the owner’s risk and the Pub is not liable for any damage. Please ensure that you park in a way that is respectful to other guests.
PHONE SIGNAL
The mobile phone signal is very weak at The Three Horseshoes and in Batcombe village. Calls can be made at the property via WhatsApp or WIFI calling, if your device supports it.
DOGS
Dogs are allowed in the bar and dining areas of the Pub, all outside areas and for overnight stays in Rooms 1, 2 & 4. Please note there is a cleaning fee of £30 per stay in our guest rooms and this facility is only bookable via our enquiries@thethreehorseshoesbatcombe.co.uk email address. We would like to politely ask that all dogs are kept under control by their owners and must remain with their owners at all times, and kept on a lead if necessary. This will be a huge help to the team and guests at The Three Horseshoes as it will prevent them from being trip hazards and protect those who suffer from allergies. Please contact us directly at enquiries@thethreehorseshoesbatcombe.co.uk should you have a guide dog and need any additional support with either dining or guest room reservations.
SMOKING
Smoking and vaping are not permitted inside any of our buildings. If the smell of smoke is detected in your room upon departure, we may charge an extra fee for the additional cleaning required.
SECURITY
While there are alarms and CCTV on the premises, all guests are responsible for their own belongings and vehicles. If you are staying with us, we recommend that you keep your room locked when it is left unoccupied.
GUEST BEHAVIOUR & NOISE
We ask that all guests are mindful of one another when dining and staying as a guest at The Three Horseshoes. We must also be mindful of the houses around us to ensure we do not disturb our lovely village. If any of our guests are rude or dismissive to staff or other guests, we have the right to ask them to leave, although we sincerely hope this never happens.
All of our guest rooms are located above the kitchen, bar and/or dining areas and therefore some general noise may be heard during opening times. However, we have installed the maximum soundproofing in each of the rooms, where the building could accommodate it, to mitigate any intrusive noise disturbance for the comfort of our guests.
ALLERGIES & INTOLERANCES
Should you suffer from any food allergies or intolerances and you are dining with us please make your waiter aware of this as soon as possible. Our kitchen can accommodate nearly all requirements and we will always do our best to ensure you have something delicious to eat.
If you are staying with us and have a feather allergy please let us know on booking your room, or at least 24hrs before your stay, so that we can provide hypoallergenic bedding where possible.
GUEST ROOMS MINIMUM STAYS
We don’t have a minimum stay policy for guest room reservations at The Three Horseshoes.
