So this is the first Christmas and New Year with no guests; what sad times 🎄😞 ...big love to everyone after yesterday’s news, especially other small businesses forced to shut, and families now not able to reunite 😘
If anyone local to Aberdeenshire does want to come and stay with their household/bubble between now and Christmas night message/email us to book. From Boxing Day we are back to the lockdown rules and can only take bookings of essential workers so do get in touch if that is you.
