As some of you may have already heard, Louise and I are moving on from The Havelock and beginning an exciting new adventure at The Ship in Eighton Banks. It has truly been an absolute pleasure to be part of the Havelock community. We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey – our incredible team, our amazing locals, and every single person who has walked through our doors. You’ve all made this place feel like home. ❤️ If you know us, you’ll know we don’t like to make a big fuss (hence the late post!), but we’ll both be at the Havelock for the New Year celebrations, and then, from the 5th January, we’ll be settling into the Ship. So if you’re ever in the area, please do pop in for a catch-up – we’d love to see you! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the memories, the laughter, and the friends we've made along the way. Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! 🎉 With love, Oli & Louise ❤️
