A multi-million pound upgrade of a tidal island hotel off the south Devon coastline, where famous figures such as Agatha Christie and The Beatles have stayed, has been approved.
The west wing of the art deco Burgh Island Hotel is set to be extended to accommodate 12 new en-suite bedrooms, in the first major development on the site since 1934 - five years after the hotel was originally built.
The grade II-listed hotel’s Nettlefold bar will also be extended to host events, while a spa facility will be installed on the ground floor.
