Just been quoted £690.88 +VAT for this service, apparently includes replacing cylinder head gasket. Seems very expensive, is this what should be expected? Thanks

Cylinder head gasket? Is there an underlying issue with the car that suggest it needs a head gasket, like coolant in the oil or something?

No it's running fine, the service guy said it was part of the service, checking valve clearances I think he said

Perhaps confirm which gasket is being replaced, the cylinder head gasket or the valve cover gasket.

Checking the valve clearances requires the valve cover to be removed not the cylinder head.
