One figure per person, per day
Read what a day costs, then reserve a day at that price
Nothing here is quoted as a package because nothing here is sold as one. Each day carries one figure, and a week is those figures added together.
Prices are shown from a starting figure per person and are confirmed in writing once the office has checked the dates you named against what the operators still hold.
The figures beside each day are what one person pays when the day runs, and they do not include getting yourself to the town it starts from.
Every day on this site is priced on its own, and a week costs whatever the days you picked add up to, with nothing added for putting them in sequence.

Why every figure says from
Payment never passes through this office at any point, and no figure quoted here becomes owed until the operator has written to you and you have written back.
The office answers written requests only, so nothing on this page places a reservation by itself and no card details are asked for or accepted anywhere on this site.
The figure beside a day is what one adult pays when that day runs. It is a starting figure and not a quotation: the operator confirms it in writing against the date you name, and until that letter arrives nothing is owed and nothing is held.
