Rabbit bouncing after LCN Newcomer win

Templepatrick boutique hotel The Rabbit has been named Newcomer of the Year at this year’s LCN Awards.

What was the Templeton has now been turned into a truly wonderful oasis of style and relaxation thanks to the Galgorm Collection’s investment and guests are guaranteed a wonderful stay at the venue under the stewardship of manager Lynsey Gordon.

Judges from Spotcheck said of the winning venue:  ” The styling and the design in this venue was such an eclectic mix of styles which combined a modern, industrial feel with some vintage furniture.  The facilities were really excellent and there was an element of ‘fun’ that was so evident around the whole venue which was eye catching and innovative.  Staff were well trained and confident in their professional approach which made us feel welcome and valued.”

On collecting the coveted gong from category sponsor Richard McLaughlin of McMahon McKay’s solicitors,  Lynsey said: “I am delighted to accept this award on behalf of the whole team at The Rabbit. We tried to create something new and special with this venue, a stylish oasis where anyone can come to escape the everyday for a while, and we are thrilled with how it’s going.”

This year’s Newcomer category was perhaps the most hotly contested in LCN Awards history with the beaten finalists including:
