Coast & Country Hotels, part of the Shearings Leisure Group, has revealed a new brand look, launched a new website, and announced plans to continually improve their hotel collection.

The new website was developed by Guestline, one of the UK's leading hospitality software providers, and it allows a faster, more engaging user experience across the whole property estate. It will serve as a booking engine and destination guide for the group's 15 iconic hotels, based across England, Scotland & Wales.

Chris Hannon, Managing Director, said: “With plans to continually improve our hotels, we felt a new logo and website reflected our promise to our guests – to consistently deliver hotel experiences that exceed expectations.

With more of our guests using tablets and mobile phones every day, we needed a website that would fit their requirements. Our new website offers a seamless experience, however you browse. We have the same welcoming and classic values, the same attention to detail, the same great value – but with a new look.”

Projects planned across the collection include more Premier and Superior rooms for guests to choose from, refurbished bedrooms, a new destination bar at The Windermere, a new seafood restaurant at The Ship & Castle and a micro-brewery at The Derwentwater.

Other recent updates have included a significant investment in Wi-Fi, so guests can now access free Wi-Fi in all bedrooms at the majority of hotels*, as well as in the public areas. Dining & drink menus have been revamped, with new inclusions such as afternoon tea and a gin parlour menu, celebrating the best of gin-based drinks.

Responding to demand, Coast & Country Hotels are also now accepting dogs at all hotels, by prior arrangement and for a small fee.
