Daventry District Council is seeking interest from hotel operators and other organisations for a potential hotel development in the heart of Daventry, Northamptonshire (NN11).
The local authority is inviting interested parties to find out more about proposals for a hotel as part of its Site 3 Development, located at an important gateway to Daventry Town Centre. Other key features proposed for the development include a marina, office space, restaurant and leisure facilities, residential units and a college of further education.
The Site 3 Development is the latest phase of the Daventry Town Centre Vision – an extensive regeneration programme by DDC and its partners. Other developments moving forward this year with planning consent include Mulberry Place, a 65,000 sq ft retail complex and five-screen cinema north of the High Street, plus a new supermarket to the west of the town centre. Work was recently completed on the new University Technical College, serving students across Northamptonshire, Warwickshire and south Leicestershire regions.
A Masterplan for Site 3 has been submitted for outline planning approval, with the hotel development expected to take shape during 2015. Hotel operators and other interested parties are invited to approach the Council for discussions, including any initial proposals relating to estimated site area and building height, proposed number of bedrooms, ancillary facilities (onsite restaurant/retail component) and parking requirements.
Councillor Chris Over, DDC’s Economic, Regeneration and Employment Portfolio Holder, said: “Site 3, part of the Town’s Eastern Way Development Area, is an important gateway to the heart of Daventry and an ideal location for a hotel development, to support the growth of business and leisure activity in the town centre.
“We would like to hear from hotel operators or any other organisations interested in shaping a future partnership that could move this scheme forward.”
