July and August 2020

Studio Opening Times - Saturdays and Sundays, 11am - 4.30pm

Due to the challenging circumstances we are all living through, the studios are only open for two days a week at the moment due to family and other commitments, with the aim of being able to open four days a week again as the year progresses. We have introduced a number of measures following the government guidelines for working and shopping safely during the Coronavirus (Covid 19) pandemic, these include:

• If you or anyone at home has a temperature or a new, persistent cough, visitors are politely requested to not enter the cottage or studios.

Face coverings must be worn in the cottage and studios.

• Only 2 people or 1 family from the same household in the studios at any time.

• Visitors are advised to use the alcohol hand sanitiser provided on stations situated both on entering the cottage and on entering Victoria's Studio.

• Visitors are encouraged to wear face coverings/masks in the cottage and studios as this is mandatory in shops now.

• Visitors are requested to keep a safe (2 metre) distance from others; To not touch their eyes, nose or mouth and to cover coughs and sneezes with their elbow or tissue.

• Visitors are politely requested to only handle items that they intend to buy.

• Doors will be left open so that handles need not be touched.

Thank you to all our visitors for their patience and understanding in these challenging times.
