The Hut continues to operates a booking system, we ask you to phone or email to book 01904 652991 leaving a message on the answer machine if we don’t answer, or you can email us at bookings@thehutyork.co.uk and a member of the team will get back to you as soon as we can. You can pre book for up to a month in advance and payment is asked for in advance via invoice from our SumUp account. The Hut York does not hold any of your bank details. We can send invoices which can be paid at The Hut via our SumUp machine, please note we will still not be taking cash.

Cancellation of bookings:

We ask that you give 48 hours’ notice if you wish to cancel a session so we can offer it to someone else. You can cancel by phone, leaving a voice message or by email to bookings@thehutyork.co.uk. We understand that at times giving notice can be difficult, wherever possible we will come up with a solution and still offer a credit note. We do not give refunds.

Opening Times:

10.30-11am for our ‘Early Bird’ session, please arrive 5 minutes before this session start as we do start on time. If you are running late and are with us for the next session, or all day, you are welcome to wait in the Studio, the entrance is the door closest to the main road.

Return of the Drop-In sessions:

The Hut will offer a Drop-In Service Monday to Friday for our afternoon sessions only, which takes place from 13:30 – 14:45. We will offer spaces on a first come, first served basis, this is for members who feel booking a place is difficult for them. We ask you to arrive for 13:15 so we can book you in and take payment prior to the session starting.

If you are late for the session and it has already started, we will be unable to let you join.
