Lime Wood and Herb House are doing what we can to reduce the amount of plastic and packaging we use, so you will no longer find single-use plastic bottles. You will find water filters around the Herb House Spa in the changing rooms, gym, studio, by the lap pool and Raw & Cured. We recommend you keep yourself hydrated whilst in the Spa.

Feel free to wear casual attire, including Herb House robes, in our restaurant Raw & Cured. We provide flip-flops in the lockers. These are a mandatory requirement for anyone using the Spa.

Herb House management reserves the right to restrict access to certain facilities due to health and safety.

No food, glassware or crockery is to be taken into the poolside areas. We provide plastic glassware for these areas in Raw & Cured (the Herb House restaurant) or plastic bottles of water can be used. No running, jumping or diving in the pool is allowed.

For health and safety reasons, we ask members to shower before entering the pool.

There is a lift in reception, which provides access to the lower and upper ground floors.

All members and guests use the Herb House at their own risk and the Herb House does not accept any liability for any illness or injury which results from the use of the Herb House Spa’s facilities by members or guests.

Members and guests warrant that they are and remain fit and able to use the facilities they are using at Herb House, including the Herb House Spa. A member and guest must notify us immediately if these circumstances change.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits the Herb House liability for death or personal injury arising from the Herb House’s negligence, or fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by English law.

To the extent permitted by law, the Herb House will expressly not be liable to members and or guests for any loss or damage, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, arising under or in connection with: use of, or inability to use, the Herb House facilities; or use of or reliance on any content displayed on the Herb House Website.

As a member or guest, please note that the Herb House will not be liable for, including but limited to:

loss of profits, sales, business, or revenue;

business interruption;

loss of savings or income;

any indirect or consequential loss or damage.

These limitations of liability apply even if the Herb House has been expressly advised of the potential loss. Nothing in this clause will exclude or limit any warranty implied by law that it would be unlawful to exclude or limit.

By using the Herb House facilities, members and guests agree that the exclusions and limitations of liability set out in these Terms and Conditions are reasonable. If the member or guest does not think they are reasonable, the member or guest must not use the Herb House facilities.

Any member or guest who suffers an accident on the Herb House premises must report the accident and circumstances under which it occurred to the Spa Manager, immediately following the accident.

Membership suspensions are available for members paying by monthly direct debit only.

Memberships can be suspended for a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 6 months within a 12-month period.

Suspension for 3-6 months can only be granted once in a 12-month period for an upfront administration charge of £350 inc VAT.

Members cannot cancel their membership whilst they are in their suspension period, there must be 3 months written notice once their membership is re-activated. Suspensions can only be organised for complete calendar months. Suspensions will only run from the 1st to the end of each month.

Suspending your membership allows you to hold your membership rate at your joining rate, which has a lifetime promise. Your monthly direct debit must remain active (although no payment will be taken) throughout the suspension period and your membership fee will then be reactivated at the end of your suspension period.

The benefit of suspending your membership over cancelling it is that if you cancelled your membership, once your membership ends, if you decided to return, you would need to re-join on the current rate at the time, rather than your previous rate and the joining fee would also apply.

To request to suspend your membership, or to find out more, please email membership@herbhousespa.co.uk with the heading “Suspension of membership” by the latest 15th of the month prior to the start of your suspension.

Memberships carry a minimum membership period of 12 months.

If you have an annual membership, your membership will automatically come to an end when the initial 12-month period is completed. You will be contacted in advance of the end of your contract to confirm if you would like to renew your membership on a further annual basis or whether you would like to switch to direct debit.

Annual memberships must be renewed within 2 weeks prior to the end of the 12-month term to secure the lifetime membership rate. If the membership is not renewed prior to the initial 12-month term expiring, the current membership rate would apply.

Monthly memberships paid for by direct debit automatically roll on after the initial 12-month term ends.

For monthly paying members 3 months written notice can be given at any time during the 12 months term but notice must be given no later than 9 months before the end of the 12 months otherwise further monthly payments will be taken. For the avoidance of doubt, despite the time the 3 months written notice is given, all monthly payment members must complete a full 12 months paying membership. Memberships can only be cancelled from the 1st of month. Notice can be given at any point during the month, but 3 complete months membership fees must be completed following the written cancellation notice being given.

The Herb House reserves the right to enforce a penalty if the contract is breached without 3 months written notice within the 12-month period.

It is the responsibility of the member to cancel their monthly direct debit with their bank after the 3-month notice period expires.

If any direct debit payments fail, the management reserves the right to levy an administration charge of £30 and recover the full payment due and costs from the member, this can include court action and debt collection.

Membership is only refundable under exceptional medical circumstances and at the discretion of the Herb House membership committee.

We reserve the right to withdraw all or some of the facilities when required to carry out maintenance work. Facilities may be closed for maintenance, replacement, renovation, cleaning and emergencies without notice or compensation.

Any member or guest who fails to comply with these Terms and Conditions and rules of membership or who in the sole opinion of the Herb House Spa Manager and/or General Manager of the hotel, behaves in a manner that is offensive to other members, guests or is disruptive to the character and reputation of the Herb House, may have their membership terminated immediately without notice or refund.

The Herb House management reserves the right to refuse any member, guest or children thereof, entry to The Herb House without providing any reason for doing so. Any persons suspected of being under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs will be removed immediately.

The Herb House management team may also terminate the membership of any member by notice in writing if any fees owed by the member remain unpaid 30 days after the due date for payment.
