Warner Leisure Hotels, the UK’s only hotel chain to cater exclusively for adults and a Bourne Leisure portfolio company has announced the continued expansion of its portfolio with the acquisition of two high-quality hotels.
The hotels in question are the Dalmahoy Hotel and Country Club, near Edinburgh and Forest of Arden Country Club, near Birmingham.
Dalmahoy Hotel and Country Club, Warner Leisure Hotels’ first hotel in Scotland, is an attractive Grade A manor house set in over 1,000 acres and only 30 minutes from Edinburgh city centre and 50 minutes from Glasgow. The four-star hotel has 215 bedrooms, with two golf courses, two restaurants, two bars, a leisure club, tennis courts and conference facilities.
The Forest of Arden Country Club is a four-star golf hotel, located in the Midlands and only a 20-minute drive from Birmingham. The hotel is set in over 10,000 acres of woodlands and has 214 bedrooms, multiple lounges and bars, two golf courses including a championship course, tennis courts, a leisure club and conference facilities.
Bourne Leisure, owned by Blackstone-managed funds, has committed over £100M in the acquisition and redevelopment of these two properties in what will be an extensive refurbishment programme ahead of their reopening as Warner Leisure branded hotels.
