FIRETHORN1   58 #1 Posted June 9, 2020 I desperately need to come up to Sheffield to visit my 80-odd year old mum, but under these draconian "Covid rules", I'm not allowed to stay overnight in her house, as I usually do, because she is classed as being "extremely clinically vulnerable". She's a double-amputee, with both legs amputated above the knee and she also suffers from COPD and respiratory issues, She is totally housebound and wheelchair-bound and has Carers who visit 3 times a day to take care for her basic bodily needs, She has lovely, kind neighbours who do her shopping and/or cook food for her and leave it on her back step. Her Carers are lovely, they do a truly fantastic job, but there's no-one to do the other stuff that my mum needs to keep her going ….like cooking her a fresh, home-made dinner, doing the dusting, hoovering and general housework etc.    I know that I can't come and stay in my mum's house under the current restrictions, but if there was a Sheffield hotel or B&B open, I could - at the very least - come up and spend a bit of time with my owd lass. Does anyone know of any Sheff hotels or B&B's that are open for business these days?   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Andy C   86 #2 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) I think generally most are starting to open from 4th July like pubs and restaurants, however some options before then include serviced apartments and a number of hotels are available for essential stays only, including the Copthorne on Bramall Lane which is available on hotels.com.

Could you argue it's essential? Might be worth a ring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
