Loss of income over the busy Easter period and the start of the summer
During lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, both campsites were unable to operate for four months, meaning a loss of income over the busy Easter period and the start of the summer.
They have also had to invest money into their businesses to ensure the safety of their guests and to comply with government coronavirus restrictions.
