Park Update on Covid-19

26 February 2021

Following the announcement from the Scottish Government this week we continue to be in Level 4 until the 26th April. Therefore, all holidays starting prior to 26th April will unfortunately need to be postponed.  We have sent an email to all bookings the affected, but if we’ve missed you please contact us by emailing to info@gillespie-leisure.co.uk or call 01557 870267.
The English Government has announced the lifting of the stay at home from 29th March, however this doesn’t apply to Scotland. We remind our customers travelling from England that they cannot come to the Parks until the Scottish Government lift restrictions.

We are currently working with reduced office staff so your patience will be appreciated, we will respond to you as soon as possible.
Stay safe

The recent restrictions announced by the First Minister and the Prime Minister on 19th December have effected what happens on our Park during the Christmas and New Year period.

Currently only customers from Tier 1 can travel to the Park but must leave before the end of Christmas Day. Then from 00.01hrs on Boxing Day the First Minister has put the whole of Scotland into Tier 4 for 3 weeks which involves strict travel restrictions and rules.

Though the Park will be open (until we are informed otherwise) customers cannot travel to their holiday home under the current legislation not even for essential repairs and no cross border travel between Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales will be permitted.

We ask all our customers to follow these rules, made by the government, to keep everyone safe during these difficult times. So please stay at home. For further information please use this link www.gov.scot/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-protection-levels/pages/protection-level-4/

On behalf of everyone at Brighouse Bay Holiday Park have a happy Christmas and all the best for 2021.  Let’s hope it will be better than 2020 for everyone.

27 March 2020

We thank you for your continued and valued support during these difficult times.

We remind all our customers including static owners, seasonal tourers, tourers and campers our Park is closed as per government rules.

We understand customers will be wanting an update on visiting your holiday home/tourer on the Park, your existing booking(s) and future bookings. However, not to risk staff health we have a limited number of staff addressing your calls and emails. We also have staff working remotely.
You will therefore understand we have lots of customers and queries to deal with, so please be patient, we will get back to everyone as soon as we can. It will take some time to address all your queries.

We will keep you updated with any further updates on our website and on our Facebook page.

From the management and staff of Brighouse Bay Holiday Park we thank you for your patience and understanding during this difficult time.  Stay at Home and Stay Safe.
