CASE STUDY

Waterside Hotel, Grasmere

The Waterside Hotel is a prestigious development on the shores of Grasmere, Cumbria.  The grounds of the hotel sit partly within the Flood Zone 3 and the development proposals include the renovation and expansion of the hotel facilities. 

R G Parkins & Partners Ltd were retained to undertake a Flood Risk Assessment and to negotiate requirements for compensatory flood storage with the Environment Agency.  The solution will enhance the aesthetics of the shoreline of Grasmere in this area and will allow the redevelopment of the hotel complex without increasing flood risk on site or elsewhere.

In additional to the Flood Risk Assessment, we also developed a flood protocol for the hotel to assist with overall hotel emergency planning.
