Marco Pierre White Buys Cotswold Hotel

17th May 2012

Marco Pierre White has bought a hotel in the heart of the Cotswolds. The celebrity chef's newest property is The Frogmill Hotel near Andoversford.

Additional staff are being recruited to work in the 28- bedroom hotel near Cheltenham. General manager, Fiona Patterson, confirmed Mr White would be opening a Wheelers of St James' restaurant on site later in the year.

However, some of his food ideas are already being incorporated into the menu. She said: "It is a beautiful building and needed somebody to love it and bring it forward. Having Mr White as the new owner is fantastic for the whole area. We have already had some fantastic feedback on the food and we're excited about what is to come in the future."

County councillor for th he Andoversford ward, Fiona McKenzie welcomed the Mr White's involvement in the area saying: "I am delighted to hear that he has taken over this venue. I imagine and hope it will provide local employment and draw people to the Cotswolds in general. This should have a knock on beneficial effect for other business, including local retail which is having, like so many other commercial enterprises, a hard time at the moment. I wish him every success in this endeavour."
