SKELWITH Leisure has started work on the £100 million Flaxby Country Resort, between York and Harrogate.
The developer is expected soon to announce which international luxury hotel operator will manage the resort on its behalf.
Paul Ellis, managing director of Skelwith Leisure, said: “As you would expect, we are delighted to be finally on site and getting on with the work, something we have been eager to do for a very long time. We are on schedule and look forward to opening in 2015.”
Leeds-based K Rouse is the main contractor for the first phase, which includes a new roundabout on the A59 and ground works for the hotel.
