Since I was stuck in the outside and could not re-enter, I used the cheat to leave to the area exit, and it worked fine - i can continue playing everywhere else without issues.
For those stuck inside, I reckon the best call would be to use the cheats to teleport directly to Gilded Vale or such, if at all possible. I understand the cheats might disable achievements gain, but then again, I seriously doubt this will be my only run through the game
A bit of a shame, but given the fact it's a very local bug, giving issues to player in the Hold, I'm hoping it will be squashed soon
