New pictures show what a new animal sanctuary complete with a restaurant and spa could look like if planning permission is approved in a Nottinghamshire village. The Broxtowe Retreat would be situated on land near Station House in Trowell and would comprise 27 guest lodges, as well as a themed spa and restaurant.
It's expected the development would create more than 60 jobs and ahead of it being discussed by Broxtowe Borough Council, new artist impressions have been released showing what the site could look like. Tim Hallam, the engineer on the Broxtowe retreat, who is also a Broxtowe councillor, stressed the images were slightly rudimentary at this stage but that they gave an insight into the "amazing" facility that could be brought to Trowell.
Mr Hallam said one of the big features of the retreat would be its environmentalism. This will include a rainwater capture and filtration system which Mr Hallam says should be able to feed all 27 cabins and the restaurant, though a mains water connection will be in place as a "back up."
