Exclusive by Andrew Brown Stand Up For Southport

Ambitious proposals to transform the stunning Garrick building in Southport town centre into ‘the UK’s only theatre spa hotel’ have been approved!

The beautiful art deco building on Lord Street, which was created in 1932, will now be restored and converted in a multi-million pound development to provide:
  • 109 new hotel rooms
  • 12 luxury apartments including a 4th floor terrace and pool
  • gym and spa
  • bar and restaurant
  • refurbishment of the existing event auditorium to create a new theatre space.
Sefton Council said that the landmark building, designed by renowned architect George Tonge in an Art Deco style, has been “an important landmark for Southport for generations”.

Restoring it will “provide a boost to the building’s long-term future and economy by bringing new life to this part of the conservation area”.

Garrick Southport Ltd submitted a planning application for the scheme in June last year.
