CORONAVIRUS INFORMATION
Ferny Crofts is now open for all group and visit types, although we have a number of restrictions still in place to ensure the safety of all on site.
We have carried out detailed research and developed risk assessments regarding reopening, and are constantly adjusting our new processes and procedures according to latest Government and Public Health England guidance, along with industry best practice.
This means that we are confident that we can welcome groups back to Ferny Crofts whilst keeping everyone safe and controlling the spread of Coronavirus.
COVID 19 Coronavirus Safety
During to the ongoing COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic, we have a number of measures in place to help keep everyone on site safe and ensure everyone on site enjoys their stay to its full potential.
These measures have been developed using the latest information and guidance from Public Health England, the Scout Association and various industry bodies such as the Camping and Caravanning Club, UK Hospitality and Visit England.
This includes limiting site capacity to approx 75%, enhanced cleaning regimes, retaining various social distancing measures across the site and on our activities, and continuing to advise our guests to wear face coverings in all instances where social distancing cannot be maintained.
All of these measures and how they affect your stay will be explained to you when you place your booking.
Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about Coronavirus safety measures in place on site.
As always, it is ESSENTIAL that you or any members of your group do not attend site if you are showing any symptoms of Coronavirus, have tested positive for Coronavirus, or have been told by NHS Test and Trace to self-isolate.
Thank you for helping us to ensure Ferny Crofts remains a safe place for all to enjoy.
