Dishonoured booking

<p>We booked for 30 March - 3 April 2017 in August 2016, paying the 50% deposit. When I followed up with the guest house today they informed me that they cannot accommodate us as they are rennovating. If I did not contact them I wonder when we would have heard the news?! And with that being the Iron Man weekend, finding pet friendly accommodation now is nearly impossible.</p>
