Westmorland hotel celebrates success from £1 million investment

Appleby Manor Hotel and Garden Spa, which is a member of the Lake District Hotels Association, is celebrating a year of success as it reaches the one-year anniversary of a £1million investment that saw the launch of its award-winning spa facilities. The new spa facilities have led to a 41% increase in the business’ turnover, as well as generating 15 new jobs in Westmorland and the surrounding region.

During 2016 the hotel and spa was also awarded with several prestigious accolades, including Silver Star status from the AA, a top accolade in the Candis Spa Awards and a shortlist in The Cateys – a prestigious awards ceremony in the hotel industry – alongside The Ritz Hotel. The spa has also been equipped with the latest in environmental technologies to conserve water and save energy, meaning it is one of the only carbon-neutral spas in the country.

Mike Dunbobbin, Owner of Appleby Manor Hotel and Garden Spa, commented:

“We are overwhelmed with how successful 2016 has been for us. To have achieved these results in just over a year is something we’re incredibly proud of and are working hard at continuing in 2017 and beyond. The spa has helped us to attract customers from not only Cumbria and the surrounding regions, but internationally as well, and we’re now seeing travellers from across the globe paying us a visit to experience the range of treatments we offer. Cumbria is an incredibly positive and resilient region so to be able to be a part of that and support our local area is very important to us.”
