    Thanks to everyone who posted. Just a quick update to say that I spoke with the venue's owner directly and he kindly agreed to give us a full refund.

    I'm still not 100% whether the travel ban is legally enforceable, however, given it was supposed to be a family holiday I didn't want to be worrying about it, or the possibility of having to go back home from Scotland with 2 young children!

    In the end we booked somewhere in England instead!

    Good result for you, even if it increases the risk of spreading the virus around England instead of Scotland!
    Hopefully they decided to holiday in Blackburn  B)

    Bolton's case numbers are now dropping quite significantly, while case numbers in many areas are going up.  If rates in the South London boroughs keep increasing at the same rate then in a few weeks we'll be more concerned about Londoners leaving their local area.

    I'm always concerned when Londoners leave their local area to be honest!
