and in ROOM 7 - OUR MINI DORM  ( bunk beds )

CHARGES
If you share the room - it is priced accordingly. 
If you request single occupancy - there is a different charge.
If we offer you single occupancy as there is no single room available, a different charge applies.   Please see the Tariff Page for details.

If you are in a Twin Room alone and you use both beds - or you make a mess of the second bed and we have to change it for further guests, a £20 Bed Change is made. Please keep your personal belongings  to your own bed and do not  make a mess of the second one.

SNORING
PLEASE READ BELOW

Sorry to have these guidelines, it's just some peoples manners are not always quite what they should be and for this, we have some guidelines.
 

• This is 'retreat style' and we do not put people sharing in double beds unless attending together.
• If you know you snore or are very noisy in the night, then please advise us in advance as this is unfair on others and we will do our best to avoid this where possible.
• If you know you snore and you say nothing and others are disturbed, we will try to move you ( and the correct price charged ) or if more convenient we may move the other person to an upgraded room and charge YOU for the difference in price - and if there are no private rooms available,  you will be asked to sleep on the couch in the lounge, and if you are unhappy at this,  or it is simply inconvenient,  you may be asked to leave and no refund offered.
  
• Please be thoughtful  and considerate of others.  We rarely get thoughtless people here but some guys - kinda - take your breath away with their selfish behaviour and if we have a complaint and it is justifyable,  you will be brought into awareness of your  thoughtlessness.  If you cannot be more accommodating,  we will upgrade and charge accordingly or ask you to leave with no refund.
  

• Sharing a room is left to random choice as we do not know ages etc. of our guests when taking a booking and who you find yourself sharing with is by chance.
  
• I usually have no idea who is coming - and Brad Pitt and George Clooney are not regular customers here - although I think Brad Pitt's brothers,   Cess and Arm ,  come and stay sometimes.
  
• Being a CLOTHING OPTIONAL venue can take away some of the embarrasment and  usually - I hear peals of laughter coming from the dorm room as it's a bit like being a kid again - back at camp - and the guys do share a laugh and a fun time.
  
• Also, as a CLOTHING OPTIONAL venue, we expect you to be clean and not leave marks and stains on the bedding, couches etc. If this happens, we will charge you an extra tariff for the cleaning and may even ask you to leave if it becomes clear to us that you are not bothering to clean yourself up. ( You'd me amazed ... although in 11 years, it is rare.)
• No staring at others while they sleep or making a sexual nuisance of yourself - especially when it has been made obvious thet they are not interested.  You may be asked to curb your behavour or asked to leave.
• DO NOT LEAVE LIGHTS ON while you sleep as this disturbs others.
  
• If you have any strange - noisy - farty - burpy antics in bed,  please be thoughtful of others who will not be amused at your ideosyncratic oddities and these are best kept to yourself in a private room.

SHARING A ROOM WITH STRANGERS

A man in his late 70's tottered into Hamilton Hall this afternoon ( November 2011) on his walking stick complaining he had walked here from the station - which was not my concern as he was not even a guest here and we were right in the middle of laying insulation in the roof and did not appreciate being disturbed.
He asked to look around as he was thinking of staying for a period here. I told him all we had was a shared twin room and he turned his nose up saying - ' Oh but I don't want to share with some old disabled man'- and I laughed and said ' Well you won't be sharing with Brad Pitt or George Clooney and besides, you are the old disabled man .'  - and he looked daggers at me..  I laughed and went on - ' Well you are - you are the old disabled man yet you don't like the idea of sharing with someone like yourse;lf - well how do you think they would feel sharing with you ?'
He was quite taken back by my direct manner - yet even David and Nick  who heard from the Dining Room were open mouthed at his comment.  I made sure he knew I was mucking about and laughing with him over this and he phoned the next day and booked himself in - and I asked him how old he was, and when he said he was 68,  I had to comment that he had come across as a much older man than  that,  and we laughed together. 
I do find that some elderly people need younger people around them and a bit of madness and they soon 'pick up' - and I shall endeavour to share a laugh with this man and see if we can  take off ten years for him and he can become a young man of only 68 and not an old man of 68. 

We do ask those who share rooms to be considerate and thoughtful to those who they share with and do not make a nuisance of themselves or act in an offensive manner. 
 

Same goes for some men who - because we are gay, assume we all want to sit around and admire their cock - and yet why is it these are always the guys who would be the last man on Earth you would want to touch and have sex with and yet they - wrongly - assume that they are God's Gift.

I truly believe that every body is a thing of wonder and beauty but that does not mean a grossly overweight man with BO and a small dribbly willy is going to do it for me, and when he starts lunging at guests and then complains - yes - COMPLAINS  to me that no one is interested,  I really do have to stiffle a laugh.
I am very aware that as I get older, those guys that 25 years ago would have enjoyed me sexually - now simply do not,  and I can live with that.  I do not expect them to want me - I do not assume I am still the cute 35 year old and I am very aware of my limitations,  yet some men are not.  They are blind to the fact that we all have our type - and that sometimes we are not someone elses type - for whatever reason is irrelevant,  and making inapropriate advances when a NO has already been forthcoming,  is  adolescent behaviour and not tollerated if a complaint is forwarded.

PLEASE BE GROWN UP AND RESPONSIBLE.
