Oddfellows hotel to develop parkland accomodation in Cheadle
Chester’s Oddfellows hotel has been granted planning permission to transform Cheadle’s Bruntwood Hall into new boutique accommodation.
The project will see the 19th century mansion, situated in Bruntwood Park, restored to create a cocktail bar, restaurant, private dining rooms and 22 bedrooms, as well as a spa facility.
Oddfellows Hotels’ Jonathan Slater said: “We are truly excited about the process of sympathetically converting beautiful Bruntwood Hall.
“As with our Chester hotel, the focus will be on restoring the building’s original features, keeping a true sense of history and incorporating the signature touch of playful design that characterises an Oddfellows hotel.”
Jonathan said that Space Invader Design and Tim Groom Architects, both of which are based in Manchester, are now involved.
Speaking further, Jonathan said: “Demand has been very high for our Chester hotel and our guests are always asking if we have any other locations, so as a business, we feel this is the right time to grow and evolve.
“We are just thrilled to be able to add Bruntwood Hall, which will be known as Oddfellows On The Park, to the family.”
While the property has served a number of functions in the past, including a stud farm for race horses, workspace for a filming company and Town Hall offices, this latest development is the first time it has been a hotel.
