Allan Thompson, Managing Director at Gentoo Construction said: "This is a really exciting project for us, adding to our portfolio of work in the Northumberland area and embarking on a new relationship with the Holiday Property Board. It’s a fantastic development that will really transform the area and have a positive impact on the community in Belford in terms of the future tourism business it will bring as well as local supply chain opportunities. We can't wait to get started!"

Work is due to start on site in August.
