Croft said the plans announced by prime minister Boris Johnson on Tuesday (23 June) to ease two-metre social distancing and give businesses greater licence to operate would come as a "huge relief".
Pubs, restaurants, hotels and other attractions will be allowed to reopen under strict new Covid-secure rules and operating practices from 4 July, as well as B&Bs, campsites and other accommodation sites that could help meet demand for domestic holidays and staycations this summer.
