The company which runs Donington Park race track has submitted plans to turn nearby Donington Hall into a luxury 44-bed country hotel.
MotorSport Vision (MSV) – co-owned by former-F1 driver Jonathan Palmer – has applied for listed building consent for the grand, grade II listed building a year after first revealing the plans.
It said it wants to carry out “sensitive refurbishment” of the buildings, including a chapel and games room and a grade II listed dairy, and said the hotel would eventually create 150 jobs.
