Our plan to keep you safe

Pre-arrival & Check-in

Most importantly, if either a guest or a team member is unwell or has any Covid-19 symptoms, we ask that they stay at home.  

On arrival, both guests and staff will have their temperature taken using a contactless thermal thermometer.  Those showing any symptoms of coronavirus are asked to return home and to arrange a Covid-19 test.

2-3 days before your arrival date, you will be sent a pre-check-in form, to ensure we have all the necessary information.  This means that on arrival, you will simply be asked to sanitise your hands, have your temperature taken, and collect your key.

Contactless payment & check-out

We are now a cashless operation; only credit and debit cards are accepted at this time.

Check-out is contactless.  A printed room bill will be placed under your door early on the morning of your departure.

Front of house

Face masks need to be worn in all indoor public spaces by staff and guests alike, except when eating or drinking. 

This is supplemented by regular thorough handwashing, temperature checks and the use of sanitising gels and wipes. 

Further PPE and lateral flow tests are available as required, and may be used by our teams.

Housekeeping

Our Housekeeping team keep rooms well aired and fresh with country breezes.  Each room is deep cleaned and fully sanitised before each stay. We have invested in a UV Deep Clean System to sanitise all exposed room surfaces and frequent touch points between each stay, safely removing bacteria and viruses.   

Sanitiser and disinfectant wipes are available  throughout the hotel.  Public areas are regularly cleaned throughout the day.

Linens, towels and robes are washed on a high heat, with added sanitisation.

Our staff

Staff are temperature-checked upon arrival every day.  Any staff member showing symptoms will be immediately sent home and asked to arrange for a Covid-19 test.  They will not be permitted to return until they can prove their results are negative.

Lateral flow tests are available for all staff on request.

Dining

Our restaurant tables and outside seating are spaced at least 1m apart.   Breakfast is served a la carte.  Dinner and breakfast times have been extended at busy times, and guests are asked to book a specific time slot for dinner.   

We offer a collection service for continental breakfast and supper.

A picnic lunch menu is available to enjoy on your your days out.

In line with Government regulations, we are accepting bookings for up to 2 households/rule of 6 between 17th May and 21st June; after 21st June we are happy to accept larger bookings.

We're asking for your support too

We are doing our utmost to keep you safe.

We are following all the guidelines and have implemented many new measures, but we also need your support please.

• Do not leave home if you or someone you live with has a high temperature, a new continuous cough and/or a loss of/change to sense of smell or taste

• On arrival, please ring the bell and wait for a member of the team to greet you and take your temperature

• On entering the building, please wear a mask, sanitise your hands and register with the NHS test and trace app.  Each individual needs to do this OR supply their contact details.

• Wash your hands frequently or use our hand sanitising dispensers

• Maintain ‘1m plus’ social distancing

• Limit extended contact with other guests

• Respect our need for staggered meal times: please be punctual

• Use your bedroom toilet where possible, rather than our public toilets

• Use our online app or website where possible for menus and information

• Use our collection service where possible, rather than requesting room service

• If you feel unwell while you are with us, plus let a manager know straight away. You must then immediately arrange to get tested by contacting https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/testing-and-tracing/get-an-antigen-test-to-check-if-you-have-coronavirus/

If you see something you think isn't quite right, please have a quiet word with one of the team so that we can correct it.  We are all trying to do our best in this constantly changing world.

Very many thanks in advance, Julie, Damien and all the team

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Kindest regards
