Appointment Drives Forward Hospitality Project On Sunderland Seaside
Plans for a new inn along the Sunderland seafront in Seaburn have taken a major step forward.
Metnor Construction has signed on as principle contractor for the scheme, which will see a 40-room inn built alongside the STACK Seaburn development. The Seabird Inn will be built over three storeys, comprising of a bar and dining area and children's play park for customers.
The Inn Collection Group had plans for the development approved by Sunderland City Council in October.
Work is expected to begin later this month on the site.
Sean Donkin, managing director of The Inn Collection Group, said: "We are delighted to announce the appointment of Metnor Construction as principle contractor for The Seaburn Inn. Their selection signals an exciting new phase in the development of this project that will transform an area of redundant land into what will be a great new addition for Seaburn and the surrounding community.
"We pride ourselves on our track record for delivering award-winning pubs with rooms where people can eat, drink, sleep and explore from, across the north east, Cumbria and Yorkshire. Seaburn will be a wonderful new addition to our group and we look forward to work starting on site, in readiness for our doors opening by the end of 2020."
John McIntyre, Contract Manager from Metnor Construction added: "We are thrilled to have been selected principle contractor, this is an exciting project to be part of. I am excited to be working with The Inn Collection Group to bring a new lease of life to the area.”
"As a business we embrace collaborative working, we work nationally but our roots are firmly in the region and we are looking forward to expanding our portfolio of work so close to home."
The Seaburn Inn development accompanies a new strategic direction from The Inn Collection Group to develop a completely freehold estate as it continues to roll out 'buy and build' growth plans, to more than double its ten-strong portfolio of pubs with rooms by 2022.
