You need to have a negative PCR test within 72 hours of your departure time/date; and then also pre-book the Day 2 & Day 8 test package (cost approx. £210 per person) as you need this to be allowed in. 

You also need to self-isolate (quarantine) at the place where you're staying for 10 days, unless you choose to pay extra for (yet) another 'Test to Release' at Day 5!

Hope this helps!
