The Seaton Lane Inn near Sunderland, The King’s Head Inn at Newton under Roseberry and the newly acquired The Kingslodge Inn in Durham – the group’s first city-centre site – complete its portfolio. The Group is the biggest private room-provider in the county.
Chief executive, Keith Liddell, said: “The Commissioners Quay Inn will be the perfect place to watch the Tall Ships when they arrive in Blyth. Our new inn is in a fantastic position at the heart of the redevelopment of the quayside area. We’re excited to be boosting Blyth’s economy.
“The Commissioners Quay Inn will be a great addition to our portfolio and fill the current gap in the market that exists in Blyth. The inn will provide much-needed accommodation for visiting businesses to the likes of the Port of Blyth.”
