LDNPA - Maintenance works at Brockhole Visitor Centre - Year 2 Programme.

Tender description

Brockhole is the Lake District National Park Authority Visitor Centre, located between Windermere and Ambleside, it consists of a formal house and gardens alongside other activities including water sports and tree top rope courses. The main house was constructed in 1898 as a family residence before being purchased by the Lake District National Park Authority (LDNPA). The site now attracts in the region of 200,000 visitors a year. In 2015 a building condition survey of Brockhole was carried out which identified the building maintenance work required to the main house and outlying buildings. Implementation of the maintenance work was put on hold whilst the future of the site was reviewed and a Masterplan for the site was developed. Lake District National Park Authority are now in a position to address the maintenance items identified in the condition survey and hope to do so based on a phased programme of works likely to last four years, avoiding the peak visitor times. Having completed Year 1 last winter, we are now looking for a contractor to undertake the Year 2 works. An overall maintenance programme has been developed and will be implemented over a four year programme based upon the importance of the works. This PQQ is purely in respect of the Year 2 works. This timescale has been determined by LDNPA wish to spread the capital outlay over these four years. We reserve the right to extend the contract with the successful contractor for the following 2 phases (years 3 & 4) of delivery of the programme, subject to review of performance and delivery during this phase. If this option is to be pursued the contractor will be notified in writing. We are looking for a contractor to undertake the Year 2 maintenance programme.
