Bowgie Inn, Crantock Newquay Cornwall, Extension to Existing Solar Panels

Perfectly perched on the West Pentire Headland, overlooking the golden sands of Crantock Beach, near the popular surfing and family destination of Newquay.

The Bowgie is the place where you can momentarily escape to a slower pace of life with mind-blowing views and an enviable cliff-top location.

The panoramic coastal views of the unspoiled beach of Crantock, Polly Joke, the Gannel and the dramatic headlands nearby, help to inspire and regenerate the soul.

The 'Bowgie' which is Cornish for 'cowshed' is one of Cornwall's most well-known and loved pubs, and has one of the most incredible beer gardens in the whole country. Andy Pickles has proudly owned the pub for 50 years, and back in the 1970s, he used to grow potatoes in the field on the cliff edge to make the pub chips! You can still see some of the original features of the old farm building which The Bowgie once was up until the 1950s, and hidden gems and traditional charm can still be seen throughout the pub.

This procurement specification is part of the work to set out the requirements for a lower carbon, cost effective energy generation and monitoring system for the kitchen, bar and restaurant areas of the Inn.

The purchase of this system is part of a grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. We will assess tenders received on a Most Economically Advantageous Tender.
