Whatley Manor Hotel

Transform Your Interiors with Our Premium Wood Flooring

Quintessentially British, Whatley Manor is a 5 Star Hotel in the heart of the Cotswolds. Featuring a Two Michelin Starred Restaurant ‘The Dining Room’ along with the ‘Aquarias’ Spa all secluded within 12 acres of gardens.

For the major refurbishment Whatley undertook, Oakley worked with award winning interior designer Carole Roberts to transform the guest suites and living areas. This was accomplished using two different oak boards, the first our Decka Plank Cottonwood, and the second our Decka Plank Rawe.

Project Overview: Achieving Elegance and Durability

In 2018, Whatley Manor Hotel underwent a significant refurbishment, to enhance its guest suites and living areas with exquisite engineered oak flooring.

Two distinct oak boards from Oakley’s Decka Plank collection were selected for this transformation:

Decka Plank Cottonwood: This Character Grade oak board underwent a meticulous finishing process, including distressing, handscraping, and brushing, culminating in a pre-finished matt lacquer. This treatment imparts a rustic yet refined aesthetic, adding warmth and character to the hotel’s interiors.

Decka Plank Rawe: Featuring a brushed, unfinished surface, this board was customized with a bespoke finish chosen by Carole Roberts to complement the Cottonwood variant. This tailored approach ensured a cohesive and harmonious design throughout the guest suites. British Institute of Interior Design

Engineered wood flooring, like the Decka Plank series, offers several advantages:

Stability: Constructed with multiple layers, these boards are less susceptible to expansion or contraction due to humidity changes, ensuring longevity and durability. oakleyproductssw.co.uk+1oakleyproductssw.co.uk+1

The collaboration between Whatley Manor Hotel, Carole Roberts, and Oakley Products has resulted in interiors that seamlessly blend traditional charm with contemporary elegance, offering guests an inviting and luxurious experience.
