Glenfield is a small, privately owned historic property with a limited number of guest rooms. When a room is reserved, it is removed from available inventory and may no longer be available for sale to other guests. The following cancellation policy applies to reservations made directly with Glenfield and through third-party booking channels, including third party booking sites, and other online travel agencies displaying Glenfield's reservation policies.
Glenfield understands that travel plans sometimes change. For regular lodging reservations cancelled prior to arrival, monetary refunds will not be issued. Instead, the eligible value of the reservation will be provided as a Glenfield Gift Certificate/Credit, subject to the following terms.
For a reservation of one night only, the lodging charge for that night is non-refundable and will be forfeited upon cancellation. When applicable, any remaining eligible amount paid toward the reservation will be issued as a Glenfield Gift Certificate/Credit, less a $50 cancellation/administrative fee.
For reservations of two or more nights, the first night's lodging charge is non-refundable.
The eligible value paid toward the remaining nights will be issued as a Glenfield Gift Certificate/Credit, less a $50 cancellation/administrative fee. No cash, check, credit-card, or other monetary refund will be issued.
Reservations made for designated blackout dates, major Natchez events, or other high-demand and citywide sell-out periods are non-refundable.
These periods include, but are not limited to:
If a guest cancels a reservation occurring during one of these periods, no monetary refund will be issued. The eligible value of the cancelled reservation will instead be issued as a Glenfield Gift Certificate/Credit. The Gift Certificate/Credit must be used within one (1) year of the original scheduled arrival date and is subject to availability, applicable blackout dates, and the rates and prices in effect when the replacement reservation is made.
Reservations that include a package of lodging together with tours, attraction or historic-home tickets, food and beverage, afternoon tea, entertainment, transportation, special events, guides, or other services are non-refundable.
Because package components may be purchased, prepared, ordered, reserved, or financially committed in advance, cancellation of a package will result in a Gift Certificate/Credit for the eligible remaining value of the reservation after applicable cancellation/rebooking charges and any non-recoverable costs already incurred or committed by Glenfield.
Package components involving advance-purchased tickets, food and beverage, special events, or other reserved services may also be subject to an applicable restocking/rebooking fee.
Gift Certificates/Credits issued for package cancellations must be used within one (1) year of the original scheduled arrival date. Upon rebooking, all lodging, tickets, meals, tours, and other package components will be subject to availability and then-current pricing. The guest is responsible for any increase in price.
Additional Guests: Rates are based on double occupancy. Additional registered guests beyond the first two incur a charge of $50 per person, per night, plus applicable taxes, to cover lodging, breakfast, utilities, internet access, housekeeping, and use of the property and grounds.
Pets: Pet-friendly rooms are available by advance request. A $75 pet fee and $100 refundable pet deposit are required for pets and emotional support animals. Owners are responsible for all pet-related damage, odors, stains, excessive cleaning, scratching, or other losses. Pets must be kenneled or otherwise secured when left unattended. Damage or excessive cleaning may result in partial or full forfeiture of the deposit and additional charges if necessary. Service animals are welcome; however, guests remain responsible for any damage caused by the animal.
By selecting "buy now" or submitting a purchase, you acknowledge and agree to adhere to all policies and procedures outlined herein, including venue location guidelines. You understand the cancellation policy. For further clarification of terms please contact us at 601-443-1400 or by email at glenfieldbb@gmail.com
Please note that for lodging reservations, we reserve the right to relocate your accommodations to another room or property of similar quality by informing you in advance (if applicable) in case such a change becomes necessary. This may occur due to maintenance issues, or reasons beyond our control. All lodging arrangements will be specified according to the type of bedding you requested and will include breakfast if applicable.
At Glenfield, we take disputes seriously and strive to ensure a fair resolution for all parties involved. It is important to note that any disputes, regardless of their nature, will result in the forfeiture of the issued gift certificate.
At Glenfield Bed & Breakfast, we strive to offer a unique and authentic experience within our historic 175-year-old residence. As a privately owned property with limited accommodations, all bookings are final and non-refundable. Upon check-in, you will have 20 minutes to inform the innkeeper of any issues in your room, allowing us the opportunity to address them promptly or relocate you to another room. Please note, as a historic home located in the countryside, certain environmental factors such as dust accumulation or the occasional insect may occur despite our best efforts.
By staying one night without raising concerns, you acknowledge satisfaction with your room, and no refund will be provided for early departures. Since we close out inventory for your reservation and schedule staff accordingly, we are unable to rebook the room, resulting in a loss of revenue. In the event of an early checkout, a gift certificate will be offered for the remaining nights, valid for one year from the original check-in date. All deposits are non-refundable. We appreciate your understanding of the unique nature of staying in a historic home and thank you for choosing Glenfield.
For any guest requesting early check-in prior to 3:00 p.m., a day rate will apply. Guests will be advised of the applicable rate in advance and given the opportunity to accept or decline the early check-in charge.
Glenfield Historic Estate is a privately owned historic property in Natchez, Mississippi, owned by Marjorie F. Meng. We are delighted to welcome couples and their guests to celebrate life's most memorable occasions in the timeless beauty of our historic home and grounds.
To ensure a well-organized celebration and preserve the historic character of the estate, the following reservation policies and event requirements apply to all weddings, receptions, and private special events.
A $1,500 nonrefundable reservation deposit is required at the time of booking to secure a wedding or special event date at Glenfield Historic Estate.
The deposit is applied toward the total contracted event price. A reservation is not confirmed until the deposit has been received and the wedding or special event agreement has been signed by both parties.
All dates are subject to availability. Glenfield reserves the right to decline or release tentative reservations for which a signed agreement and required deposit have not been received.
Flexible payment arrangements may be made following the initial reservation deposit. Any installment arrangements must be approved by Glenfield Historic Estate.
Payment in full is required no later than 45 business days prior to the scheduled event date.
For purposes of this policy, business days exclude Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.
All contracted wedding packages, catering services, beverage packages, rentals, additional services, applicable taxes, and service gratuities must be paid in accordance with the agreed payment schedule. Charges for additional services or changes approved after final payment are due upon invoicing or as otherwise specified in the signed agreement.
Failure to make required payments may result in cancellation of the reservation and forfeiture of payments as provided in the signed agreement.
A final guaranteed guest count must be submitted in writing no later than 30 business days prior to the event, together with final payment. The guaranteed guest count represents the minimum number of guests for which the event will be billed. Reductions in attendance after the guarantee deadline will not result in refunds or reductions in the contracted price.
Additional guests may be accommodated only with prior approval from Glenfield Historic Estate and are subject to available space, staffing, catering arrangements, and additional charges. The number of guests attending may not exceed the approved capacity of the selected wedding package or event location.
A separate refundable security deposit is required for all weddings and receptions to protect Glenfield's historic buildings, furnishings, antiques, grounds, and event equipment.
Security deposits are separate from the wedding package price and the $1,500 nonrefundable reservation deposit. The security deposit must be paid no later than 45 business days before the event. Following the event, Glenfield will inspect the property, furnishings, grounds, and equipment. The security deposit will be refunded within 30 calendar days following the event, less any documented charges for damage, missing property, excessive cleaning, or other deductions permitted under the signed agreement. If the cost of damage or other permitted charges exceeds the security deposit, the contracting party remains responsible for the additional amount. Ordinary wear and tear will not be deducted from the security deposit.
Each wedding package includes only the services, accommodations, furnishings, floral arrangements, food, beverages, and amenities specifically listed in the selected package.
Additional services, including live musicians, DJs, specialty floral arrangements, additional bridal party flowers, decorative installations, specialty rentals, upgraded wedding cakes, cake-cutting services, catering enhancements, bar packages, and additional event hours, may be arranged at an additional cost. Tables, chairs, linens, china, glassware, and other event furnishings are provided from Glenfield's existing inventory only when specifically included in the selected package. Couples may provide their own flowers, decorations, and approved outside services. However, declining an included package service does not automatically entitle the couple to a refund, credit, or reduction in the package price. Any substitutions, upgrades, or special arrangements must be approved by Glenfield in advance. Additional fees may apply.
Outside caterers, decorators, musicians, photographers, rental companies, and other wedding vendors must be approved by Glenfield Historic Estate before the event.
Outside vendors are responsible for their own personnel, equipment, setup, breakdown, removal of supplies, and disposal of catering-related waste unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Vendors must comply with Glenfield's property regulations, approved access areas, setup schedules, and historic preservation requirements. Use of Glenfield's kitchen, food preparation areas, or other restricted spaces requires advance written approval. Additional fees may apply. The contracting party is responsible for ensuring that all vendors comply with these requirements.
All couples or event hosts are required to obtain special event liability insurance providing a minimum of $1,000,000 in coverage per occurrence for the wedding or special event.
The policy must cover the scheduled event and applicable setup and breakdown periods.
The policy must name the following as additional insureds:
Glenfield Historic Estate and Marjorie F. Meng, individually and as owner of Glenfield Historic Estate. A certificate of insurance and evidence of the required additional-insured endorsement must be provided to Glenfield no later than 30 calendar days before the event.
Where alcoholic beverages are served, appropriate liquor liability coverage may also be required. Glenfield reserves the right to request additional insurance documentation from outside caterers, bartenders, rental companies, or other vendors. Failure to provide the required insurance documentation may result in denial of event access or cancellation as provided in the signed agreement.
To the fullest extent permitted by Mississippi law, the contracting couple or event host agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Glenfield Historic Estate, Marjorie F. Meng, individually and as property owner, and their respective employees, agents, and representatives from and against third-party claims, demands, actions, damages, liabilities, losses, and reasonable legal expenses arising out of or relating to the event, to the extent caused by the acts, omissions, negligence, misconduct, or violations of the agreement by the contracting party, their guests, invitees, or contracted vendors. This obligation includes claims involving bodily injury, personal injury, death, or damage to property arising from such conduct. The contracting party accepts responsibility for the conduct of their guests and vendors and agrees to comply with all applicable laws, safety requirements, and Glenfield property regulations. Nothing in this provision requires indemnification for Glenfield's or Marjorie F. Meng's own negligence or wrongful conduct to the extent prohibited by applicable law. These obligations survive the conclusion or cancellation of the event to the extent permitted by law.
Glenfield Historic Estate is a historic private residence containing irreplaceable architectural features, furnishings, antiques, and family collections. All guests and vendors must exercise appropriate care while on the property. No nails, screws, staples, adhesives, or other materials that may damage historic surfaces may be used without express permission.
Open flames, candles, fireworks, sparklers, confetti, smoke machines, and similar items require advance written approval and may be prohibited. Access to private rooms, restricted areas, and historic furnishings is prohibited unless specifically authorized. Glenfield reserves the right to stop activities that present a risk of injury or damage to the estate.
All cancellations must be submitted in writing to Glenfield Historic Estate. The initial $1,500 reservation deposit is nonrefundable because the selected event date has been reserved and removed from availability. The following cancellation schedule applies to additional payments:
Any cancellation charges will be credited against payments already received and will not be charged twice. Charges for specially ordered merchandise, custom floral arrangements, outside vendor commitments, or other nonrecoverable expenses may be assessed as permitted by the signed agreement.
Requests to postpone or change a wedding date must be submitted in writing.
Date changes are subject to availability and written approval by Glenfield Historic Estate.
The original reservation deposit may be transferred to an approved new date at Glenfield's discretion. Additional charges may apply due to changes in package pricing, vendor costs, staffing, or other arrangements. A requested postponement does not automatically suspend payment obligations or cancellation deadlines.
Outdoor ceremonies and receptions are subject to weather conditions. Couples are responsible for discussing and arranging an approved weather contingency plan before their event. Indoor accommodations, tents, and alternative arrangements may incur additional charges and are subject to availability. Inclement weather, illness, personal emergencies, travel disruptions, and other unforeseen circumstances do not automatically entitle the contracting party to a refund or waiver of cancellation charges. If Glenfield cannot lawfully or safely provide the contracted event due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, the parties' rights concerning postponement, refunds, and other remedies will be governed by the signed agreement and applicable law. Couples are strongly encouraged to consider wedding cancellation or postponement insurance to protect against certain unexpected expenses and losses.
Wedding packages include only the number of event hours specified in the selected package.
Additional hours must be approved in advance and may incur additional charges for venue use, staffing, security, and other services. Events must conclude by the contracted ending time and comply with any applicable property or local restrictions.
All wedding and special event reservations are subject to a written agreement between the contracting party and Glenfield Historic Estate or its owner, Marjorie F. Meng. The signed agreement will govern the specific package, guest count, payment obligations, cancellation provisions, insurance requirements, vendor responsibilities, and other terms of the reservation. Any modifications or exceptions must be approved in writing by Glenfield Historic Estate.
