Following the success of recent ventures including The Angel and Blue Pig, Lymington and The White Hart in Ford amongst others, pub premium operator the Revere Pub Company are set to launch two further sites in November: The White Lion located in Tenterden, Kent and The Florentine in Fulwood, Sheffield.
Designed by Concorde BGW, each site will undergo an extensive refurbishment to offer the best eating, drinking and sleeping experience all under one roof. Each pub will provide all the comforts and amenities you would expect from a boutique hotel with stylish, contemporary décor, bespoke furniture and textured fabrics. In-room facilities such as luxury bed linen, flat screen TVs, spacious bathrooms, complimentary Wi-Fi and homemade luxury welcome baskets come as standard.
The White Lion is a wonderful 16th century coaching inn (3768 sq. ft.) with 14 bedrooms inclusive of five super king, five king size rooms and three deluxe family suites in addition to a 128-cover dining room, and a 16-cover private dining area. Formally named the Fulwood Inn, The Florentine, is a beautiful grand building (2100 sq. ft.), just two miles from the centre of Sheffield, with 11 bedrooms: four super king, five king, one double and one family room. Unique features include a feature room complete with in-room roll-top bath, walk-in shower and a two metre luxurious bed. The large dining room at The Florentine will have 143 covers. Overnight stays are reasonably priced with rates starting from £90 per night.
Each pub will welcome locals and visitors from breakfast through to dinner offering a regularly changing freshly cooked menu. Signature dishes include 28-day aged prime cuts of beef from John Penny’s farm in Yorkshire cooked with a Josper Charcoal flavour and a range of homemade signature pizzas, stretched and cooked fresh to order from the Italian wood-fired oven.
Complementing the food, drinks will include an extensive wine list with many offered by the glass, a full cocktail menu and a selection of rotating cask ales and craft beers. Each pub will have its own brew, The White Lion’s ‘Lionheart Ale’ and The Florentine’s ‘Florentine Gold Ale’, both available on tap.
Colin Sadler, Managing Director of Revere said, “We have put considerable investment into launching both our new sites and opening them within weeks of each other demonstrates our commitment to our hotel estate and premium offering – an important step in our growing portfolio. We are confident that our pubs with rooms will offer fantastic quality and value to both visitors and locals alike”.
The White Lion in Tenterden and The Florentine in Fulwood will be the seventh and eighth sites respectively from Revere Pub Company.
