Corona virus statement
To all of our lovely guests and friends,
Although we are experiencing difficult times we must embrace the times as friends, colleagues and families start to get their socialising back on track.
We have been open from July the 4th and we have been seeing a generous flow of guests, both of old and new with the broadest smiles and showing great confidence for the measures and procedures that we now have in place.. With a continuing cautious approach and some serious common sense in place to protect us all, we are superbly confident for the future weeks and months so that comfort and confidence can shine through and normality may well be on the horizon…
We will continually update where we can on social media and a new page on our website will be on-line for the duration of this extraordinary situation so that we may hopefully present a clear picture to you of our abilities and intentions.
Accommodation and Restaurant are open again and we welcome you.
So we are here at last. ……………. Back to normal, as far as the new normal might dictate, there are some changes to observe and to self implement by our guests. Signs are spread around to help everyone so please help us to help you to keep safe and enjoy our hospitality.
New menus and new service practices are in place and this will be the norm for the foreseeable future.
However, when we are allowed we will be more than ready to resume from where we left off.
We are open to receive guests and we are able to offer a full service coupled with a takeaway service with all of our menus, including our a la carte menus, afternoon teas and Sunday lunch.
We have taken the opportunity to remove some of our tables in the restaurant and have framed perspex screens between tables to allow for safer dining and relaxation for our guests. It will seem rather alien to anyone who knows us but over time I’m sure it will be seen as quite acceptable and of course, as we are allowed, the screens would be removed and normal service resumed…………. happy days 🙂
Eat Out To Help Out has been amazing with the buzz and emotion of friends old and new visiting and allowing us to offer our hospitality and touches of being spoilt once again in our lovely hotel. The response has been quite amazing and a huge thank you to everyone for trusting us to look after you and a huge thank you to all of our staff for staying with us over the last 6 months and being part of the Cotford family now and going forward….
Eat out to help out and beyond….
In view of the success of Eat Out To Help Out, we are now finding ourselves busier than of past times and with the new restaurant layout and the new PPE fixtures in place, confidence is high with Dinner tables being taken up throughout the week, Afternoon Teas and Sunday lunches more than ever..
Please phone the hotel as normal to make your booking and we very much look forward to seeing you in the near future
We are now also in the position where we are able to offer a full hotel accommodation service with an option to eat in your rooms rather than the restaurant if you prefer.. We can offer a bed and breakfast package to including a contact-free Continental breakfast tray outside the room for your enjoyment if you prefer this to a restaurant breakfast, in the privacy of your hotel room.
The public areas of the hotel, being the lounge, the bar, the restaurant, and all the bedrooms have been sanitised and refreshed with your comfort in mind and look amazing 🙂
The very best of health to you all, your families and friends and over the coming days, weeks and months , we warmly look forward to seeing you all once more,
Fondest wishes from Barbara and Chris and all the staff xx
