A LAKELAND inn overlooking the shores of Coniston Water has re-opened after a multi-million pound redevelopment.
Having earned Visit England’s ‘We’re Good To Go’ accreditation, the 42-bedroom Coniston Inn re-opened on Saturday.
Owners, The Inn Collection Group, have carried out a complete revamp of the traditional Lakeland slate building, which has been a hotel for over a century. Husband and wife team John and Anita Dodsworth are general managers.
Features of the inn include direct lake access from the inn’s private jetty and four acres of gardens. The opening of the expanded Coniston Inn will create a total of 40 new jobs, while the group is also looking to recruit a further 50 people across its expanding portfolio of Lakes sites including The Ambleside Inn at Ambleside and The Swan in Grasmere.
