The Inn Collection Group has announced that it is set to reopen The Ullswater Inn at Glenridding following a multi-million-pound refurbishment.
It is set to open on 12 February following a 12-month programme of work, with a new pub and additional bedrooms created as part of the renovations.
Transforming the former reception and communal areas has created a traditional style pub complete with log burning stoves, and seating to provide 254 covers, with feature windows.
For spring and summer days, an expansive outdoor seating area for 140 covers is adjacent to the waters of Glenridding Beck.
Alterations have also been made to the existing bedrooms, whilst the removal of a redundant spa area has created additional bed spaces, taking the total number of rooms from 36 to 57.
As part of the refurbishment, a new canopied entrance has been constructed, alongside comprehensive refurbishment to the external facades.
Sean Donkin, group CEO, said: “Exceptional locations are very much a group USP and The Ullswater Inn has this in spades. It is a classic Lakeland site with a strong reputation earned over the last century and a half and one that we are aiming to enhance with our careful refurbishment.
“We are very much looking forward to welcoming guests again after a year-long refurbishment and are confident that they are going to be delighted by what the inn will offer.”
