Crown Lodge Hotel History

1975: The business purchased by the present and then young owner of 25 was known as Crown Service Station (Outwell) Ltd. The restaurant and conference rooms were the car showroom, the sign and garden area at the front was the site for six petrol pumps, bedrooms 1- 6 was a wooden transport café and bedrooms 7-10 was a small bungalow for the owner/operator at the time. The garage workshops of that time, situated at the rear of the site, still operate carrying out MOT’s and servicing and are part of the same company as Crown Lodge Hotel.

1978: Squash courts were built and a bar and restaurant were developed in the showroom. At the time squash was a booming sport (Still is!) and the club was quickly established.

1988: Bedrooms 1-6 was built where the old cafe was.

1990: The bungalow was converted into bedrooms 7-10 and they were linked to rooms 1-6.

2005: MAJOR alterations were made! The business closed for three months and was completely gutted and redeveloped to the specification you see today. It included not just a new look but also created a brand new kitchen, a climate control and ventilation system throughout the public areas, free WIFI, and a computerized system linking bar, restaurant, kitchen and reception to each other.
