Workers at a country hotel in Northumberland may be at risk of losing their jobs as the venue closes for the second part of a "multi-million pound" refurbishment.
During the coronavirus pandemic, the hotel at Matfen Hall was renovated along with its leisure and golf facilities. The £10 million restoration included new bedrooms as well as a state-of-the-art kitchen facility .
Phase two of the investment, in which the courtyard area will be developed, is now set to begin. However, due to the scale of the work which needs to be undertaken, the hotel will temporarily close for five months from November.
