Multi-million pound development on Fox Den Road gets underway
We’ve started work on the start of a major new hotel and retail development in North Bristol.
Developed by Bristol-based Baylis Estates, the multi-million pound project will see the construction of a Premier Inn, Beefeater Restaurant, Aldi superstore and a Costa Coffee drive-thru on Fox Den Road in the Stoke Gifford area of the city, close to Parkway station.
Groundworks are currently underway on the four-acre, greenfield site and the project is scheduled to be completed by spring 2024.
The hotel and restaurant will be constructed from a combination of brickwork, cladding and curtain walling glass with a single-ply roof. The superstore will be made from brickwork, cladding and glass on a steel frame. The roof will be metal composite.

The hotel and restaurant will meet the BREEAM Very Good standard. The significant project relies on close collaboration across multiple construction disciplines - the design work has been carried out by Bristol-based Stride Treglown, project management is by JLL, the Waterman Group is carrying out the structural engineering, Hoare Lea is the M&E consultant and RLB the cost consultant.
Beard constructed another landmark project nearby in 2021 for Baylis Estates – the 1,300-seater, Planet Ice rink at The Venue Leisure Park at Cribbs Causeway.
