Dormy House Hotel near Broadway re-opens
to guests tomorrow (2 August) as the first phase
of its transformation is successfully completed. The popular Cotswolds hotel
will open from midday, ready for lunch.
A £10 million refurbishment programme by
Cotswold architect Tony d’Alton and construction company Zenith has been
underway since March. It will also see the creation of a brand new House Spa,
due to open in January 2014.
In time for Friday’s re-opening, guests
will be able to enjoy a new restaurant, the Garden Room, with seating for up to
70 and a new bar, The Potting Shed, which will serve traditional rustic British
fare with the best of local ingredients.
Twenty-three of 40 new bedrooms have been
specially designed by key partner, the acclaimed interior designer Emily
Todhunter of Todhunter Earle.
Emily has created bespoke fabric designs
and one-off pieces of furniture with a hint of retro and a touch of
Scandinavian chic throughout the hotel.
Her designs include three large lounges to
welcome guests, The Red, The Blue and The Yellow, which feature wood burning
stoves, wood panelling and antique mirrors.
The Garden Room restaurant, meanwhile,
will look onto a new flower garden being created for the Dormy by the
award-winning gardener and TV presenter Chris Beardshaw. The restaurant’s à la
carte menu will provide a choice of starters, mains and desserts from a set
price of £40, along with a `Trust Me` menu with wines to match.
