The Eden Project has been granted planning permission to build a new £8.5million, 109-bedroom hotel on its site in Cornwall.
The Eden Project hotel will include events and conference facilities.
The hotel will also have classrooms to support Eden’s educational programmes, including its apprenticeship scheme and degree-level courses.
The timber-clad hotel will be split into two blocks. It will be designed to blend into the countryside and have high standards of accessibility, energy efficiency and sustainability.
Existing local features including old trees and stone walls, will be incorporated into the design of the grounds. A meadow and orchard will be planted around the hotel.
The Eden Project hotel is expected to open in April 2018.
