Langdale Hotel completes refurb after £800k injection

THE Langdale Hotel & Spa in the Lake District has completed a third phase of refurbishments, following an £800,000 investment.

Langdale Owners plc has now refurbished all 56 bedrooms in a luxury yet contemporary style, having received financial backing from Barclays Corporate.

The 35-acre Langdale Estate, which began life as a small woollen mill in the 17th Century, offers a choice of the hotel, self catering and timeshare accommodation, together with two distinctly styled restaurants and bars, a traditional pub plus extensive leisure and spa facilities.

Dan Visser, sales and marketing director, said: “The support from our bankers has been invaluable in making the bedroom refurbishment happen particularly during such an uncertain and challenging economic period.

“The results so far are pleasing and the response in terms occupancy and rate increase is where we would like it to be which is encouraging. Since hotel sales are based on market share we must always strive to offer value for money and by having high quality bedroom stock to match the extensive leisure and spa facilities on the estate we can provide a combination of high quality rooms and facilities to compete with the best in this area.”
