UK: The Cotswolds88 hotel in Painswick has joined Calcot Hotels.
The 17-room property will now be completely refurbished before reopening in time for Christmas 2015.
The property joins Calcot Hotels’ other properties: Calcot Manor, Barnsley House and The Village Pub in Gloucestershire, and the Lord Crewe Arms at Blanchland, Northumberland.
Calcot Hotels bought the property from previous owners Phil and Val Harris, in a transaction facilitated by Christie + Co.
The hotel features a 34-cover restaurant, a private dining/meeting room and a beauty treatment room.
Calcot Hotels executive chairman Richard Ball, said: “We are extremely excited to be the new owners of The Cotswolds88 and to be welcoming it as a notable addition to our collection of hotels. The Cotswolds88 will fit superbly alongside sister Calcot Hotels, particularly those in Gloucestershire: Calcot Manor, Barnsley House and The Village Pub. We see The Cotswolds88 developing as a restaurant with rooms, embodying its current arty-ness while tapping in further to the artisan flavour for which Painswick and the surrounding area of Stroud is becoming increasingly known. Think Covent Garden shaking hands with the Cotswolds.”
