The Swan Hotel and Spa in Newby Bridge is located in the Lake District National Park, Cumbria, England. The hotel is owned by B H Hotels and is situated near the southern tip of Lake Windermere. Steering it through COVID, the group executed a substantial new extension to the site to aid recovery after lockdown, which not only involved the renovation of the spa but transformed the EPC ratings up to a B.
The owner, James Houlston, also takes greater consideration for the wider community. The business has committed to creating long term and diverse career options for local people and has created its own academy in each hotel department, focused on employment and training. Over 85% of all staff are from within a 20-mile radius of The Swan.
