There is a taxi service from Tring station. Luton Airport is 9.5 miles away. Here are the new measures for your safe keeping and that of the changeover team, I hope it makes sense to you (in these very strange times) - the pool area is for your exclusive use from 11am until around 7pm every day (from 9am to 11am, I clean the pool, and take the safety cover off) - a new deep cleaning regime has now been put in place with hospital grade cleaning materials used to wipe down every work top, handle, bannister, etc. - hand soap dispensers have been placed in every bathroom and by the kitchen sink. - you will have a private entrance to come and go as you please and cars are parked directly in front of your private entrance gated to the property. - on your arrival, I will show one person round the house to ensure you know how to work everything, I will wear a mask and would ask that whoever I show round would do the same. We will be able to keep a 2m distance. - to protect the changeover team, I have provided laundry bags in each of the bedrooms and would politely ask that guests strip their beds before departure and put their bed linen and towels into the bag and deposit in the porch. Mid week bookings are a min of 3 night stay 2 night min Fri/Sat (weekend stays cannot start on a Saturday, unless agreed with the owner) min stay; bank holidays 3 night min). Frog Corner is a no smoking house, in the ground there is only one area where smoking is allowed i.e. bbq area outside the Living room, cigarette butts must be cleared away - not deposited in the garden. The Organgery can be a little chilly outside of Spring and Summer - so Autumn & Winter guests use the breakfast room for dining (special measures can be put in place for special celebrations in the Orangery during cold spells - if required, (there is an extra charge for additional heating the Orangery, no additional charge for Xmas & New Year). The log burning fire will be set for guests during Spring, Autumn & Winter, if guests wish to use the fire there is a £20 charge, payable on site. For heating, the fire does not need to be lit, but for ambience is lovely (central heating will be on regardless). Extra logs are provided in the basket for 2 nights (no extra charge). Bank Holidays are a minimum of 3 night stays. During the open pool months, the pool can be opened by 11am and closes by 7pm. A maximum of 5 cars can be parked outside the front door on the Common.
