Hemphaye at Littlecourt Cottages

About

Our commitment to your safety during the Covid 19 Pandemic.We fully understand that we now live in a different world, and our customers will want to know that we are doing everything we can to ensure the safety and hygiene of our cottages.

We have always considered cleanliness to be the most important part of our success. We understand that everyone also has their own subjective opinion about the virus. But we have to take the risk very seriously. Because even the slightest relaxation of our protocols on your part or on our part could lead to the closure of our business, the cancellation of holidays for our future customers and of course, our health. This is a scenario that we will do everything we can to avoid.

As a result, we have changed many of our daily practices and services to minimize the risk of contracting and spreading the coronavirus. All of these rules will be constantly revised and subject to change, in accordance with government advice and “best practices”. These protocols are in place to protect you and us and other guests. We thank you for understanding and your cooperation.
