Fifty jobs created by £3.5million refit of Cotswold pub
By Andrew Merrell | 4th June 2018
The new owner of a Cotswolds hotel and inn once owned by chef Marco Pierre White has revealed it will create 50 new jobs.
Oxfordshire-based pub operator and brewer Brakspear, which is still finishing its extensive refit of the much-loved 16th century The Frogmill at Shipton Oliffe, has also revealed a tantalising glimpse of what it will look like post-refit.
Brakspear, which bought the pub in December 2015, is due to re-open it in July 2018.
According to the business the refurbishment represents the largest project in its 240-year history and will transform The Frogmill into a boutique destination with all-day dining, stylish rooms and attractive wedding and event facilities.
Tom Davies, chief executive of Brakspear, said: "We've always been very mindful of the fact that this is a place with a rich history, close to the hearts of many in the local community.
"The renovation itself, although creating an entirely new look and feel to the inn's restaurant, rooms, bar and beautiful outdoor space, will showcase many elements of its heritage alongside thoughtful modern twists; giving a distinctly stylish feel coupled with bags of old-world Cotswold charm."
Also on tap will be an entirely new bar and restaurant layout alongside 28 plush en-suite bedrooms.
Its grounds will also be completely re-landscaped courtesy landscape designer Justin Spink into a dog-friendly garden with a dining terrace and boules court, as well as a large lawned area.
