Local authority gives guidance to Sutherland holiday accommodation providers in Level 4 Covid-19 Protection Area
From Boxing Day the Highland Council area will be placed in a Level 4 Protection Area and the authority has issued advice for holiday accommodation owners during the coronavirus pandemic.
All holiday accommodation is required to be closed to tourists – however hotels, bed and breakfasts and self-catering can remain open for essential customers only.
When providing accommodation to essential customers, this should only be open for when they require accommodation as part of that role.
Covid 19 guidance is available that helps clarify who qualifies as an essential customer here.
A council spokesman said: "Should you require any further information or advice on the latest guidance please contact our Environmental Health team on envhealth@highland.gov.uk"
