Holiday Cottages – We are delighted to have been accredited the Quality in Tourism, Safe Clean Legal Award. AA Covid - 19 Confident Award. Visit England, We're Good To Go Award.
Here at Mulgrave Holiday Cottages the health safety of our guests and our staff is paramount to us.
We’ve always had very high standards, but until Covid-19 is considered to be of minimal threat by the Government and a normal life resumes, we are implementing changes that will reduce risk and allow you to enjoy your holiday with peace of mind. Our dedicated team of housekeepers have consulted with Government guidelines and advice from various industry bodies to implement additional hygiene measures.
What will change:
Additional hygiene measures will be undertaken by our housekeeping team. This does mean that we need to ask our guests to check in later at 5pm and check out earlier at 9am, we hope you understand that it is for the safety of you, and our housekeepers.
All housekeepers provided with the appropriate fresh, single use PPE for cleaning each property.
All key safes and keys will be sanitised before every arrival.
At each changeover, all hard surfaces such as light switches, door handles and electric sockets will be disinfected.

All kitchen cloths provided will be brand new.
