AT CROSS LANE HOUSE
As lock-downs and restrictions ease, we are aware that everyone will be moving at different paces, and we want to remind everyone to treat both our teams and other guests with consideration over the coming months. We are a small venue with only 3 guest bedrooms so there is plenty of room for socially distancing.
We want to reassure all our customers and guests that we continue to follow all government and industry guidance in relation to Covid-19.

Face Masks are no longer a legal requirement, but please do what you feel most comfortable with as we appreciate everyone is moving at their own pace and we fully respect that. We will have spare masks if you wish.
Social Distancing
Though the government have relaxed social distancing rules, we continue to encourage guests to move around the
premises with care. During the warmer weather we have some wonderful outside seating available where we can serve breakfast, dinner and drinks, if you would feel more comfortable dining on an outside table, do let us know
and we will gladly accommodate this for you.
Extra Measures
We will be continuing to keep certain measures in place to do our part to help control the spread of the virus for the foreseeable future.
