Sleaford hotel to receive £1.8m refurbishment funding

North Kesteven District Council has allocated £1.8m for a comprehensive refurbishment of the Carre Arms Hotel in Sleaford. The council, which acquired the hotel last year, aims to protect a key local asset while driving regeneration in the town.

Renovation work, set to begin shortly, will overhaul the hotel’s exterior, bedrooms, roofs, and reception area, with completion expected within up to two years. The project is funded by the council’s share of local business rates, part of which is reinvested in community initiatives.

Since its purchase for just under £1.5m, the council has focused on expanding the hotel’s business, particularly for weddings, conferences, and events, which have seen significant growth.

While initial plans outlined a 10-year timeline for investment, urgent repairs have prompted an accelerated schedule for some work. The outdoor area will also be revamped, including new planting to enhance the venue’s suitability for special events.
