Ben Rennocks, director at the Leeds office, said: “We have a long-standing relationship with The Inn Collection Group and we were initially brought in to act as project manager when it came to preparing pre-tender estimates, managing the necessary planning permission and appointing both a contractor and design team on behalf of the client.

“As well as the project management appointment our role, has now developed into a contract administrator. The work has started on site with the main contractor, STP Construction appointed, following a competitive tendering process. This is a 40-week construction programme which will see the hotel undergo extensive internal and external works. Guests will feel the benefit from the high-quality refurbishment for which The Inn Collection Group is famous.”

Louise Stewart, property director at The Inn Collection Group, said: “We’re excited to be working with Silverstone Building Consultancy again for this project. We have worked together on numerous projects and look forward to continuing our ‘eat, drink, sleep, explore’ brand with its help. Its team shares our commitment to reaching the highest of standards and has a proven track record of producing fantastic refurbishment projects.”
