The boring kind

Cookie policy — what actually gets stored

A straight rundown of the cookies this site uses, why they're there, and how to switch them off. Last updated January 2026.

Basics

What a cookie actually is

A small text file your browser keeps, so a site can remember things — like whether you already dismissed a banner or what language you prefer.

  • They can't run code, carry viruses or read your files
  • First-party = set by us; third-party = set by tools we embed
  • You can clear or block all of them in your browser settings

The full list

Three categories, all of them boring

We don't run ads, so there's no advertising or retargeting cookies here at all.

Strictly necessary

Remember your cookie choice and keep the booking form behaving. The site breaks without these — they can't be declined.

Always on

Analytics

Anonymous counts of page visits so we know which trips people care about. No names, no cross-site tracking.

Optional

Preferences

Small quality-of-life bits — like remembering you've seen the cookie banner already.

Optional
Third parties

The embeds that set their own

Two external tools on this site can set cookies. Here's who they are and what they do.

Google Maps

The map on our contacts page may set location and preference cookies — that's Google's side of the fence.

Analytics provider

Our stats tool sets an anonymous visitor ID so returning visits count correctly. It's off entirely if you decline the banner.

Your controls

Turn them off in under a minute

When this policy changes

If we ever add a new cookie type, this page updates first — and the banner will ask you again rather than assuming.

  • Version date always at the top of this page
  • New cookie categories trigger a fresh consent ask
  • Declining never blocks you from the site
