Leading architect firm, CPMG is expanding its portfolio after UK-wide leisure group, Center Parcs selected its designs for a new state-of-the-art hotel and spa complex on its Elveden Forest site in Suffolk.
Work to build the £6 million leisure complex has started on site which includes 48 self-catering rooms with en-suites, adjacent to a 9-hole golf course.
The hotel, set to be complete in autumn 2016, will replace an existing hotel to offer modern and sleek accommodation that will sit comfortably into the natural landscape, thanks to a contemporary palette of materials including timber and stone.
Holiday-makers will benefit from the new facilities CPMG has designed, with the new accommodation offering and leisure facilities set within more than 400 acres of forest.
Chris White, project director for CPMG said: “We have made significant inroads for clients requiring hotels and this is one that we are delighted to see take shape recently.
“The new hotel has been designed around the visitors’ needs; we incorporated a subtle entrance area and elevation leading to external balcony spaces which will provide a relaxed and spacious setting for guests.
“Sensitive use of natural materials incorporated into the designs ensure that new building compliments the existing landscape.
“Based on three floors, all 48 rooms will have a stunning view of the golf course and will sit adjacent to the spa and restaurant facilities. We’re hoping this design will put us on the map in terms of what we can offer for other clients in the commercial and leisure sector.”
CPMG has been working with Bowmer & Kirkland Build Services, Edmond Shipway, Elliott Wood and Illuminous to bring the designs to life.
