Day 1 – Lockdown
Today was a momentous day for us at The Quiet Site. We closed our doors for the foreseeable future due to the threat posed by Coronavirus. The rules of the game have changed for us all. We pride ourselves on our hospitable excellence but from Monday 22nd March 2020 we’ve had to turn our attention to the inhospitable.
Sarah, Emily, Jen, Charlotte, Mel, Peter and George are currently working flat out to contact our booked guests and to issue credit notes to all who have had their plans ruined by this virus. We are coming to terms with a campsite that is eerily quiet, even for The Quiet Site.
Owen the Barman mothballed the bar, emptying the beer lines and clearing out the wines. The famous Olde Worldr Bar which has rung out with music, laughter and frivolity for 5 decades has fallen silent.
We don’t know as yet what the new world will look like but when it comes we will embrace it. But until then we will take care of a part of the world that many of our guests think of as their spiritual home.
The message tonight is
