A rare opportunity

The Pumping Station is a 13.3-acre Victorian heritage estate with an operating wedding venue already in place. Heritage character, a catchment that supports both destination and local trade, and a phased transformation across multiple revenue streams - combined on a single site.

The owner has appointed us to introduce the opportunity to a small number of established operators on a direct, off-market basis. Early conversations will shape the commercial structure and give prospective operators first position to negotiate terms.

A phased transformation

Four stages, designed to be operated under one roof.

PHASE 1

Weddings & Events
Venue Expansion

Expansion of the existing wedding venue and integration of the historic coal yard as a new events space. Capacity increases from 64 to 100 ceremony guests, and from 200 to circa 300 evening guests. Pre-application stage.

PHASE 2

Boutique Hotel

A new wing of 25–30 keys, physically linked to the pumping station and sensitively designed to sit within the parkland setting.

PHASE 3

Subterranean
Destination Spa

A spa developed within the Grade II listed filter beds and original water tank. Existing geometries are preserved; the build largely below ground.

PHASE 4

Lodge Accommodation

Standalone lodge accommodation set within the wider 13.3-acre estate, supporting the hotel and venue offer.

A Grade II heritage estate near Leicester. An off-market opportunity for expanding operators to add a flagship venue, hotel and destination spa to their portfolio.
