Covid-19 measures

CoronaVirus (COVID-19) hasn’t gone away. We all share the responsibility for the health and safety of ourselves and others.

You don’t share with other guests! (Fabulous!)

• We’ll continue to use an enhanced cleaning and disinfectant regime, including certified viricidal disinfectants (EN14476) and UV-C protocols to address Covid-19 specifically.
•  
• While the use of UV-C lamps is not required, they are a proven method of disinfectant and sterilisation, and as we have them it makes sense to continue using them.
•  
• We use the UV-C lamps in all guest rooms and in all areas between bookings. This not only sterilises the air in those rooms all at once, it sterilises all surfaces in each room in preparation for heightened cleaning, making it safer for us, and ultimately you.
•  
• While you stay, we constantly sterilise the air in Gowanlea Heights using UV-C air purifiers. We use these to reduce the amount of any virus that may be in the air on an ongoing basis. These are also HEPA improving the air quality for asthmatics and COPD sufferers!
•  
• We have CO2 monitors that alert if there’s a need for ventilation.
•  
• We’ve reduced the opportunity for the spread of the virus by changing some service processes with a minimal impact to guest experience, as evidenced by our Visit Scotland Four Star Grading!
•  
• We have a separate entrance to Gowanlea for guest use only.
•  
• We have arrangements in place to replenish your rooms supplies and, if requested, can of course arrange to change bedding and towels for longer stays.
•  

Together, using these guidelines, we can all still enjoy tourism and travel safely.
