Jonathan writes, “After working in the world of Interior Design for nearly forty years, I closed down my company, Interior Supply, and have just started a new venture. This year, I will be opening Aberley House as a private hotel. Aberley House is part of the famous Beach Lawn terrace overlooking the Liverpool Bay, at Waterloo. The Terrace was built in 1866 and has strong historical links with the port of Liverpool. On the beach in front of the house is Another Place by Antony Gormley, perhaps one of the most iconic art installations in the world. There are plenty of hotels in Liverpool but Aberley House offers a different experience. There are several beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with an allocated luxury bathroom. The whole house can be rented for special events and occasions (Royal Birkdale, Aintree). Each booking is tailored to suit the guest and can include breakfasts, evening meals and guided tours.” Aberley House, 14 Beach Lawn, Liverpool L22 8QA Telephone: 07393 502906 Email: farrerjb@gmail.com
