“We are thrilled to see SeaSpace come to life,” said Dafydd Hollyman, managing director at We are Ease, who explained that the team had worked closely with architects, designers and local contractors.
He said the company had worked successfully on its sister hotels, the nearby Watergate Bay and Another Place The Lake in the Lake District.
“Our method of working allowed us to complete the project in an exceptionally fast timeframe and the client was fully involved throughout,” he said. “We brought together and managed a team of specialist consultants and used the power of our supply chain to resolve the issues that often arise in a complicated refurbishment project.”
Will Ashworth, executive director and founder of Watergate Bay, said: “SeaSpace was a very large project by Cornish standards. The complexity of totally renovating an existing building required significant expertise, diplomacy and perseverance.
“Using a main contractor on the project would have proved challenging and therefore the construction management was the right choice. The outcome speaks for itself.”
