The Best of
Welcome to the world of Leisureplex Hotels. Situated in stunning locations
from St. Ives to Fort William, Leisureplex offers a range of quality hotels
where prime locations and premium service come at a very affordable price.
Bringing you
the best of the
British seaside
When we say our hotels enjoy
the best possible positions in
their respective resorts, we
really do mean just that. In
most cases, the beach or sea
front is just across the road
with spectacular views from
many rooms.
You’ll find attractions and
places of interest all within
easy reach and when you tire of
exploring, there are welcoming
bars and comfortable lounges
where you can relax and
watch the world go by.

Doing things differently
At Leisureplex we understand that “one size doesn’t fit all.” Our
hotels are as characterful, unique and charming as the resorts in
which they are situated. So once you’ve chosen the resort and hotel
that most suits you, we do our very best to provide you with a
personal service that meets your individual needs.
And don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at our reviews on Trip
Advisor or Laterooms - Leisureplex Hotels come highly recommended!
Our careful quality control ensures a consistent and reliable standard
but it is the feedback from our guests which really keeps us on track.
Week in week out, we compile detailed reviews of all our hotels based
on the comments, opinions and suggestions put forward by our guests.
Over the years we have played host to millions of satisfied guests.
Many come back to visit a favourite hotel year after year and enjoy
being greeted by our friendly staff. Others prefer to meet old friends
and new in a variety of locations, sampling new hotels and new
horizons but with the assurance of the consistent quality for which
Leisureplex hotels are famous.

Accommodation
Explore the UK
In this brochure we have tried
to provide details not just of
our hotels but also of the
resorts and the rich choice of
excursion possibilities in the
surrounding area. It is easy to
forget that Great Britain is one
of the best developed tourism
destinations in the world with
an incredible variety of things
to do and places to see.
“
We were very,
very impressed
by the high
standards of
the staff, and
the hotel
”
Most of our hotels are listed buildings of great character and
as a result public rooms and guest bedrooms vary considerably.
However, we pride ourselves on delivering the same standards
throughout our hotels: clean rooms, good quality décor, bright
modern bathrooms and attention to the small details that make
all the difference to your stay.
All hotels have a ballroom or large area for dancing and most
have comfortable lounges, sun lounges or games areas where
you’re free to while away the hours. Many guest rooms boast
fabulous sea views, and all are immaculately presented and
provided with a bath or shower & WC, central heating, hair dryer,
tea/coffee making facilities and television with radio channels.

Here to entertain you
All hotels have entertainment at least
four evenings and up to six evenings
per week. All our hotels are large
enough to provide both cosy relaxing
lounge areas where you can enjoy a
tranquil glass of wine and fabulous
entertainment rooms where you can
take a spin around the dance floor or
enjoy the cabaret.
No smoking policy
Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside
our hotels (including all hotel bedrooms)
and smokers are only able to smoke outside
the buildings.
Accessibility and clients with
special requirements
Child reductions
Although most of our
clients are aged over 40, we
offer substantial reductions
for children at all hotels
(please see page 47).
Several of our hotels are
ideal for a traditional
family seaside holiday and
grandparents holidaying
with their grandchildren
is also a popular holiday
option.
Our buildings are full of character and it has not always been
possible to eliminate every potential obstacle for mobility impaired
clients. However, we pride ourselves on our service for clients
with special needs and we can usually find a suitable solution.
Extensive information is available on our website regarding the
accessibility of both hotels and resorts and we strongly advise
clients to consult that information.
The key to success is tailoring our service to your exact needs. So
if members of your party have a special requirement, whether it is
due to a mobility impairment or some other need, please contact
our Customer Care team before you make your booking. You can
telephone on 01257 248134 or email [email protected].

Newquay is Cornwall’s

boasting some of the finest
coastline in Europe with no
less than eleven beaches! The
town is an ancient one - the
‘new quay’ from which it
takes its name dates back
to the fifteenth century,
when it was known as
‘Towan Blystra’. As well
as being Britain’s surfing
capital, it offers wonderful
cliff and beach walks, a
picturesque harbour and a
variety of activities including
golf, squash, tennis, putting,
bowls, surfing and even
shark fishing! There
are also hidden coves and
atmospheric smugglers’ pubs
which are a living reminder
of the more colourful side of
Cornwall’s history.
Newquay has a good
selection of both high street
and local stores. Bank Street,
Newquay’s main high street,
is mostly pedestrianised, with
interesting alleyways housing
little craft and antique shops.
There is also a great variety
of tea shops and cafés for
a refreshing break.
Beaches
Newquay beaches are
numerous and varied.
Tolcarne and Great Western
are the most popular, with
safe bathing and golden sand.
Fistral beach is a surfer’s
paradise and hosts many
national and international
competitions each year.

Barrett Browning as well as
crime author Agatha Christie.

provides a continental
atmosphere with its

footbridge across the inner
harbour.

Town Centre
Bognor Regis is one of
England’s oldest resorts
having begun its
transformation from fishing
village to seaside resort in
the 1780s. Its long flat sea
front is perfect for that
most traditional of seaside
occupations – strolling
along the prom! There are
traditional rides and
amusements and some
delightful parks and gardens.
There are many lively sea
front cafes, bars and pubs
which give it a very relaxed
atmosphere. The surrounding
countryside is full of interest
– just a few miles inland are
some of England’s finest
stately homes and of
course the spectacular South
Downs – England’s newest
National Park.
The town centre shops are
approximately 10 minutes’
walk from the hotel and the
pier is just 250 metres away.
The famous Butlins Resort is
the largest holiday centre in
the south of England and
welcomes day visitors.
Beach & Gardens
The hotel looks over its
own extensive gardens
on to the beach which is
predominantly pebbly with
clean and inviting waters.
There is an attractive
promenade separate from
the road which makes
walking along the prom a real
pleasure! Nearby Hotham
Park provides lots of
amenities and is a delightful
spot to spend an afternoon.

Town Centre
Cromer was once a small
fishing village (it is still
famous for its crabs) but in
the Victorian period it was
patronised by royalty and
became a distinctly upper
class holiday resort. Today,
it is full of character with
narrow, twisting streets
and a lovely promenade
overlooking its predominantly
sandy beach. Colourful
gardens offer quiet relaxation
but if you are feeling
energetic there are leisure
facilities including bowling
greens, tennis courts, squash
and golf. The famous Pier
Pavilion puts on a unique
summer show. The Norfolk
countryside with its leafy
lanes and flint cottages is a
delight and you are never far
away from the remarkable
Norfolk Broads.
The quaint narrow streets are
home to some delightfully
atmospheric pubs and the
many shops sell all manner of
goods, from household items
to the delicious Cromer crabs
for which the town is well
known.
Beach & Gardens
Cromer’s sand and shingle
beach is popular with both
bathers and surfers and
offers clean waters and safe
bathing. The pretty gardens
along the cliff are well
stocked and also feature pitch
and putt and the bowling
green.

Scarborough is arguably
Britain’s oldest seaside resort
- it was a resort more than
a century before Regency
Brighton. It has two bays
divided by a rugged headland
on which sit the remains of
a medieval castle. The busy
harbour is home to a welter
of fishing boats and there are
the usual seaside pursuits aplenty on the South Bay
promenade which leads to
the Spa Complex, close to our
hotel. The steep hillsides are
beautifully landscaped and
there are many attractive
parks and gardens. There are
lots of shops, restaurants and
cafés and of course the
famous Stephen Joseph
Theatre.
Scarborough offers a very
wide range of shops of all
shapes and sizes. The
Brunswick Shopping Centre
has a great selection of high
street names. Bar Street,
a charming cobbled area,
is traffic-free and offers a
selection of smaller shops.
Beach & Gardens
Scarborough offers two
sheltered bays of golden
sand which are ideal for safe
bathing. This premier floral
resort has a number of
stunning gardens, in
particular South Cliff and the
remarkable Peasholm Park
with its oriental influences.

Set in Scotland’s first

two great resorts in one:
a traditional seaside resort
with marvellous sea views
and plenty of amenities and a
base from which to explore
the rugged mountains of
Argyll - some of the most
spectacular scenery in
Scotland. It has lovely
gardens, the remains of a
castle, a four mile promenade
and a 19th Century pier with
panoramic views across the
Clyde. Pleasure cruises run
throughout the summer
months sailing to destinations
ranging from Loch Goil to
Largs and Rothesay. You may
even catch the last sea-going
paddle steamer in the world,
the Waverley, which is still a
regular visitor to Dunoon.
Nearby sports facilities
include an indoor swimming
pool, bowling greens, tennis
courts and golf courses. There
is a cinema and in the season,
a range of entertainment at
the Queens Hall. The resort
stages international jazz and
dance festivals and hosts the
Cowal Highland Gathering,
the biggest highland
games festival.
Town Centre
Dunoon has one of the
largest town centres in
the area. Its main street is
partially pedestrianised and
is filled with shops selling
an array of goods, from fresh
bakery items to outdoor
clothing.

Your Resort
Fort William, the “Outdoor
Capital of the UK” is the
largest town in the western
Highlands. It is situated at
the southern end of the Great
Glen, on the shores of crystal
clear Loch Linnhe beneath
towering Ben Nevis, Britain’s
highest mountain. Nearby
Aonach Mor ski-resort offers
Britain’s only alpine cable
car, rising over 2000 feet with
superb views of the Great
Glen. The surrounding
countryside has some of
Britain’s most spectacular
and romantic scenery and its
torrid history has produced
more than 30 battlefields in
the Lochaber area alone. As
a touring centre, it is simply
unparalleled: Inverness,
Oban, Skye, Iona and
Speyside all make superb full
day excursions and there are
lots of places within half
an hour’s drive including
Glenfinnan and, of course,
breathtaking Glencoe.
Town Centre
Fort William is a busy market
town. It boasts a fine array
of shops and an interesting
selection of bars and
restaurants catering for most
tastes. At its centre, Cameron
Square is the focus of
entertainment and is the
venue for many live concerts.
The Nevis Centre hosts shows
and also has a ten pin
bowling alley.
