Self-catering holidays to Wales are going to be very different this year in a number of ways. Most importantly property cleaners will need to be given more time to prepare the property for your arrival. This means that you MUST abide by the arrival and departure times specified. For most properties, these times have changed.
Generally, this year you will need to be well prepared and as self-sufficient at the property as possible – local shops and services are going to be very busy and have limited capacity due to social distancing requirements. In addition, local pubs and restaurants – if they are allowed to open – will have reduced capacity. If you prepare, investigate and pre-order as best you can, you will benefit from a wide range of wonderful local produce. Our advice is to spend time on the web before your holiday to plan things carefully. The more you plan, the more enjoyable your holiday will be.
