Britcon has completed a £320,000 contract as part of continued investment to refurbish Hirst Priory, an 18th century Priory and popular events venue in North Lincolnshire.
Hirst Priory, located adjacent to Jn2 M180, on the Isle of Axholme, is a Grade II listed mansion house nestling in a secluded setting overlooking the Lincolnshire Golf Course, and boasting 14 acres of stunning grounds. Once a private residence it became neglected before being acquired by Hunt Group in 2004.
During 2015 Britcon undertook the first £250,000 phase transforming the Grade II listed building into a prestige venue for weddings and corporate events with a capacity of 120 people. Externally, Britcon created extensive gravelled and lawn areas including woodland settings to host marquee functions and outdoor ceremonies for up to 300 guests.
In this latest phase Britcon have refurbished all seven bedrooms, restoring original period features and introducing en-suite facilities. The kitchen has been fully re-fitted, introducing more high-tech catering facilities for larger functions. A new ‘Vaults’ area has been transformed to provide a subterranean 40-seater dining area and bar. Hunt Group added a further investment of £30,000 on soft luxury interiors and other equipment.
Andy Toyne at Britcon said, “Hirst Priory is of considerable heritage value to the Isle and is cherished for its beautiful period architecture.
