Wheatfield House was proud to be the 19th hole for international golfer Thriston Lawrence this week during his fantastic run at Royal Troon. ⛳️ Well done Thriston!

Some of the very best golf courses in the world are only a short drive from Wheatfield. We can’t promise any claret jugs but we promise you’ll get a more than above par stay. 🏆

Well done to all involved. Fantastic amount raised for a great, local charity 👍

~FUNDRAISING UPDATE~

Further to my short video, I am now pleased to announce that we have this week donated £ 8,000 to the Hansel Foundation.

The increased amount was due to some generous donations received from Hansel Supporters after we had completed the silent auction and raffle.

Once again, thanks to everyone who participated in any way, you have certainly set a great target for us to aim for next year.

I have been asked a few times to post the final silent auction schedule, so please find the details attached.

Christmas sparkle at Wheatfield 🌟

Fed up with the same four walls at home?? 😏
Remember, for every booking at Wheatfield, we offer a full refund if circumstances change with COVID. 😊

It may be grim weather outside, but a pizza delivery makes the day! 😋

It has been a confusing and worrying week for everyone and obviously the uncertainty regarding rule changing doesn’t fill anyone with confidence to book a holiday.

If you make a booking at Wheatfield House and there are further restrictions put in place by the Scottish government, we will honour a full refund, including the deposit.

We don’t want an empty, lonely house over the winter. Please don’t hesitate to make a risk free booking and support our little business!

The latest update from ASSC 😭. We are constantly monitoring this so please bear with us if you are considering making a booking or cancelling one.

The ASSC has just had an update from the Cabinet Secretary for Rural Economy and Tourism, Fergus Ewing MSP: Dear Fiona, We are so sorry to advise you that following further review of the Scottish Government’s position, our one household restriction for private homes will also apply to self-caterin...

22/09/2020

Picked a good year to start a holiday let business didn't we!! In light of today's COVID briefing, the Association of Scotland's Self Caters (ASCC) has published the following:

The First Minister has today made announcements regarding further restrictions in Scotland. The new ban on indoor gatherings is targeted specifically at people's homes, not commercial accommodation businesses:
"These new restrictions apply to people's homes - in other words, to private indoor spaces.
Rules for meeting other people in public indoor spaces that are subject to strict regulation and guidance, remain the same - you can meet with one other household only and in groups of no more than six people.
As I said earlier, we will be working with local authorities to strengthen inspection and enforcement in indoor public places and enforcement action, including closure if necessary, will be taken against shops, pubs, restaurants or other premises that do not ensure compliance."
Having consulted with the Scottish Government, the ASSC can confirm that as long as existing guidance is adhered to, self-catering businesses can remain open and welcome up to six guests from two households (children 12 and under are exempt from this number).

Therefore, we still seem to be able to operate as a business and would ask anyone who has made a booking, which doesn't meet the criteria detailed above, to get in touch with us asap. Refunds will be made in full.

Or alternatively, please get in touch if you would like to escape from all this COVID stress and relax care-free at the house. Why not book it so you can spend time indoors with your parents/neighbours/grandchildren without breaking the law?! 😉

14/09/2020

We still have some last minute availability for Monday 21st-28th September and Monday 12th-19th October. Please contact us directly for prices, taking into account the Government restrictions and limits on numbers.
