THE Tempest Arms pub, in Elslack, has reopened after a five-month refurbishment programme by family brewers, Robinsons Brewery.
The Inn now presents a brand new look including a full refurbishment of its 21 guest bedrooms.
William Robinson, managing director at Robinsons Brewery, said: “It was always very important to retain the character and heritage of the pub and simply enhance its original features."
Although not wishing to disclose the cost of the inn's refurbshment, Mr Robinson said the investment 'represents our dedication to our estate where we have further investments planned during the remainder of the year'.
Internally, the Tempest now offers a new semi-private dining room beside the restaurant area, featuring a restored trestle table for 10.
The bar has been re-designed as the pub’s focal point and hub. The new design, generating a ‘farmhouse’ feel throughout, features original reclaimed furniture and retaining the fireplaces.
The 21 bedrooms have benefitted from complete makeovers. A palette of warm neutrals and an aged pink to the rooms was selected paired with various textured fabrics and a simple lighting design.
Externally, a paved courtyard garden displays country planting, lantern lighting and brand new wooden dining furniture.
