The Tempus expands with luxury lakeside retreats

A Northumberland hospitality group is expanding its luxury accommodation with a new collection of lakeside cabins.

The Doxford Group has announced the launch of The Lake Cabins at The Tempus, eight stylish retreats overlooking a private lake on its countryside estate in Alnwick. 

Each cabin, designed for two guests, will feature a private terrace with scenic views, blending modern facilities with tranquillity.

Designed in collaboration with Jeffreys Interiors, the cabins, which are set to open in spring 2025, will complement the estate’s existing accommodation, bringing its total capacity to 100 guests. 

Visitors will also have access to The Orangery restaurant and bar at The Tempus for all-day dining.

This expansion marks the second phase of The Doxford Group’s development, following the 2023 opening of The Tempus hotel, bar and restaurant. 

Richard Shell, owner and director at The Doxford Group, said: “This new development marks an exciting chapter in the group’s journey as we continue to expand our current offering on our estate. 

“This is the first time we have ventured beyond the immediate perimeter of Charlton Hall and forms part of the broader expansion that will see additional leisure facilities, designed to provide even more opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment. 

“As we continue to grow, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of luxury and comfort for our guests, ensuring each stay is not only exceptional but a truly memorable experience.

“We have seen a rapid increase in demand for onsite accommodation over the past four years, and we are proud that we will be able to host up to 100 guests from spring 2025. 

“This expansion is a testament to our team’s dedication and the continued support for our valued visitors.”
