Cedar Court Managing Director, Wayne Topley, said: "We have been delighted in the uptake for bookings in our 'Tipi on the Stray', it was really important to us to do something fun after all the recent unpleasantness. We wanted to offer up something a little different that would put a smile back on people’s faces…and a Tipi seemed a good place to start.

"People have even been hiring the whole thing for bubble gatherings - we have been both surprised and very happy at just how popular this concept has been.

‘Our Tipi can hold 38 safely distanced people inside and has further outside seating for 34 other lucky customers - we are asking guests to book in advance, and we carefully control the safety of everyone’s experience.

"The Tipi is tray service only and all food and drink is ordered via our new app and paid for on contactless terminals. You can join us in our Tipi for a beer and a prosecco …or you can have a full-blown sumptuous afternoon tea experience cozied up next to the fire.

"To further put people’s minds at rest, Cedar Court Hotels have secured three externally accredited certifications in support of our new Covid-Safe processes. These accreditations let us know that how we are now operating, is exceptionally safe. We are raring to go and the team are confident to do so.

"As soon as we were open online, the enquiries flooded in. I am so proud that we have been able to safely deliver something so unique for Harrogate, I hope we get to welcome you soon!"
