Date: November 2025

Purpose:

To clarify the rights and obligations of members and guests regarding loud snoring, loud CPAP machines or other factors which may disrupt the sleep of roommates. 

Considerations:

The Committees need to balance these considerations

  • We aim to facilitate as many members staying at the lodge as possible at times of high demand.
  • Members should be able to expect a good night’s sleep when sharing with others.
  • Accommodation rates are based on most beds in a room being occupied.
  • We need to provide a way for members to stay even if they snore loudly, use a loud CPAP machine or otherwise disrupt roommates’ sleep.

Policy:

  1. If a snorer or CPAP user cannot share a room, they must pay for single occupancy at the same rate. The inability to share a room may be judged by the member, or by the booking officer based on feedback from others.
  2. Single occupancy for this purpose comes out of the same limited allocation as other exclusive single occupancy.*
  3. No exclusive single occupancy will be allowed on race weekend.
  4. The booking officer may relax these conditions at times of lower demand.

Review:

This policy is subject to Committee review from time to time.

Note: * As of 2025, exclusive single occupancy is only permitted for a total of 3 rooms at a time, specifically Rooms 6, 8 and 11. Refer to Booking policy on Exclusive single use (singles booking a room to themselves).
