At Ladybank Schoolhouse the comfort and care for our guests always comes first.

This is why we have taken, and are continuing to take, the following steps:

5. We are providing these ways for future guests to reach us directly should they wish further information about whatever are doing: (tel) 6472440533 and ladybankschool@gmail.com

6. We have lengthened the days we block off before and after each reservation to allow for the most diligent of cleaning care.

7. We respect the responsible choices that guests make and the practises guests may adopt and follow during their stay.

8. We want to communicate with you before you book, just so that we and you are working in common ways to prevent the spread of the virus.

9. We are monitoring the actions that restaurants and shoppes and other tourism operators locally are doing to in response to the virus and are proving recommendations to guests these proactive establishments.

As Superhosts working among so many ones in the Airbnb community, here in Blue Mountains, Grey Highlands, Collingwood, the Beaver Valley and Thornbury, we are working diligently to assure our guests that their comfort and confidence comes first.
