£20m Isle of Man hotel regeneration project claimed by Metropolitan Workshop
BY Katie Buckley
The Castletown Golf Links Hotel, situated on the Langess Peninsula on the Isle of Man is one step closer to redevelopment after closing its doors seven years ago.
London-based architecture and design practice, Metropolitan Workshop, has won a competition to redevelop the site, transforming it into a boutique hotel with an accompanying residential development.
The £20m (US$30m, €26m) scheme will replace the existing hotel owned by developer Dandara, which purchased it in 2012. According to the Architects’ Journal Metropolitan Workshop fought off competition from Hodder + Partners, Adam Architecture and Gareth Hoskins Architects to win the job.
Planning is expected to be submitted later in the year and designs for the competition have yet to be revealed.
