Renfewshire hotel & country club launches new restaurant


Part of the Manorview Hotel & Leisure Group, The Bowfield Hotel & Country Club in Howwood, Renfewshire has opened a new restaurant called the Plumpy Duck.

As part of the first phase of the hotel’s £1.5m redevelopment programme, the restaurant, kitchen and Stables bar have been refurbished.

The new eatery offers classic British meat dishes such as Steak & Ale Pie, Roast Breast of Chicken, and Pressed Pork Belly, plus a range of steaks and burgers. The menu also serves up a selection of seafood platters such as Steamed West Coast Mussels, and Beer Battered Haddock.

Due for completion next month, the second phase of the scheme has already started, and involves an extension to the spa facilities with the addition of seven treatment rooms, a new six-bed relaxation area, a sauna with a glass wall, and an external jacuzzi for 10 people.

The hotel reception area is being reconfigured, while exterior work will include external cladding, new roofs and a beer garden. Work will start on a new function room in January 2018, and there are plans to create an additional honeymoon suite.

Formed in 2007, the Manorview Group operates nine luxury, boutique hotels across central Scotland.
