AN EAST Durham hotel has unveiled the results of a £100,000 refurbishment.

As part of an ongoing investment programme, The Ballroom at five star Seaham Hall Hotel, Seaham, has undergone an extensive redesign.

The room, which accommodates up to 100 people for weddings, corporate and social events, now incorporates custom-made Irish carpets along with state-of-the-art touches, such as full audio visual connectivity.

The refurbishment of the ground floor room, which overlooks the hall’s grounds, follows the unveiling of Seaham Hall’s Taittinger Sports Lounge and its Byron’s Bar & Grill earlier this year.

The sports lounge, which is open to residents and non-residents alike, enables sports lovers to view a variety of matches on an 80in plasma screen and also houses a full-size table football game and nine foot American pool table.

Meanwhile, Byron’s Bar & Grill, which recently earned a second AA rosette under the leadership of executive chef Simon Bolsover, offers a variety of dishes including meat and fish, cooked over a whisky barrel and charcoal embers in an indoor clay barbecue,

Work is already underway on the next phase of Seaham Hall’s refurbishment programme with the first of the hotel’s 20 suites having undergone a complete re-design.
