Finishing touches applied to North Yorkshire hotel ahead of opening

A five-figure project to manufacture and install bespoke lighting bollards at a luxury hotel in North Yorkshire has been completed, with Sandburn Hall Hotel set to open its doors to guests for the first time on Monday 24th May.

The 55 bollards, manufactured by LED lighting specialist CFE Lighting, are fitted with low-energy LEDs, providing wayfinding and emergency lighting along the main walkways which run around the front and back of the 40-bedroom luxury hotel.

The £5m hotel is the first major new-build hotel development between York and the coast for over 20 years, with the site already home to an 18-hole championship golf course, Grand Function Hall and the popular Tykes restaurant.

It’s located on a 1,000-acre estate just off the A64, seven miles from the heart of York, and is expected to welcome more than 10,000 leisure and business guests each year and contribute more than £2 million to the local economy.

Hotel director James Hogg said: “Everything about the design and build of this hotel is quality and that extends to the smaller details such as the exterior lighting bollards, with CFE Lighting creating a bespoke, British-made product that perfectly meets our needs.

“Everything is now set for the launch on Monday and we’re looking forward to welcoming hundreds of guests over the coming weeks.”

Commenting on the project, Amanda Speight, national business development manager at CFE Lighting, said: “We’re delighted to have been able to support the development of what will be an incredible destination hotel for the region.

“The project enabled us to showcase the full breadth of our capabilities, from visiting the site to assess the requirements through to designing and manufacturing the bollards, using the very best components, at our production facility in Barrowford.”
