Back to What’s On…
We’ve searched through our usual attractions to discover what’s available for you to enjoy. You’ll notice there are no theatres or venues included because they are not operating any programmes. Many places are open but check before you go. Most are insisting on an online booking and will offer a time slot for your visit.
Our heartfelt plea these businesses need our support. However, please stay cautious and safe. Better not to get Covid-19 than fight it. Hopefully, these brilliant organisations will survive to resume their role in making our area so rich with holiday experiences.
