The project proposal was to update the building’s services while maintaining the character and charm of the original structure. Many of the building’s features and original materials were retained and replicated in order to ensure the hotel did not lose its charm during the renovation process. Due to the nature of the listed buildings and their surroundings, close collaboration with the Architects, Client, local Planning Offices, Conservation Officer and Natural England to ensure all works were undertaken in-line with the stringent rules surrounding working on a protected structure such as this. Works included a complete refit of the venue, with the installation of new floors, new ceilings, modern water and heating systems and electrical system. Almost all of the property’s timber floors have been replaced and a new kitchen has been installed. Tekne manufactured all the bespoke joinery. The Tekne team produced the fixed furniture for the bedrooms and public areas including the bars, wardrobes and wall paneling.

I was looking for a new contractor to undertake a sensitive, multi-million-pound refurbishment and renovation of a hotel, housed in a Grade 1 listed Elizabethan Manor House in Devon. Tekne entered the frame having been recommended by friends in the hospitality industry as contractors who care about the detail. Having completed that project and several other smaller ones since, I can honestly say Tekne have surpassed my expectation. I am a very ‘hands on’ client and found the site team backed up by the factory resource an extremely responsive and proactive combination. I have no hesitation in recommending them to others in our industry looking for a detail orientated contractor." Robin Hutson – Chairman and CEO LimeWood Group Ltd and Home Grown Hotels Ltd.
