We have made the incredibly difficult decision to remain closed at both The Tolcarne and The Packet for the rest of 2020. We are hopeful of reopening early in the New Year, ready to serve you once again in happier, more care-free times.
After what has been a year of ups and downs, we feel the next few weeks are just too unpredictable to risk jeopardising what we’ve achieved recently; namely, survival! For the sake of our staff, suppliers and community, we want to be here ready to thrive in 2021. With the certainty of a quieter than usual Christmas (to operate safely this is a necessity) followed by a possible lockdown in January, there would be a very real chance that the business we’ve spent years building would be gone forever.
We are sorry to disappoint those who had already booked with us. If you haven’t already received a call or email you will do soon, and we are recommending some great alternatives in the local area.
We wish you all a safe and enjoyable Christmas. For us and our staff we have the rare opportunity of spending this precious time together – we plan to cherish every moment.
Very Best Wishes from Ben and Kinga, Anne, Matt and the Tolcarne Team
