Go-ahead given for Old Holly Farm Visitor Centre site at Cabus to become business units
A planning statement submitted to the council by Ian Swain of WBW Chartered Surveyors noted: “Like many businesses, the farm visitor centre has been severely affected by covid19. In particular, indoor facilities such as the café and soft play facility were not allowed to open. As a result, the entire farm visitor attraction was closed for much of the recent past. After much consideration, the decision was taken to permanently close the business.
Family circumstances had also contributed to the decision not to re-open the centre Ian Swain advised, noting: “They now have a young family and running the farm visitor attraction is no longer so achievable.” Minimal alterations will be needed to the existing buildings. The report added: “The courtyard will be used as a shared outdoor space for users of the business units.”
Alison and Ian posted on the Old Holy Farm Facebook page in 2021: “We have always been proud of being both a working organic dairy farm, whilst opening our farm up with our visitor attraction on site. COVID-19 has had an impact on everyone’s lives, and during the last 12 months it has given us the chance to reflect and take stock of what we are trying to manage as a family.”
