PLANS for a huge new care home to be built on the former Rolls Royce and McLaren dealership in Cofton Hackett are set to be given the go ahead.
The proposed development is for a 72 bedroom care home, complete with bar and a cinema.
The proposed building will consist of a three to four storey building with a parking area to the north providing 30 spaces.
The building includes facilities such as; dining rooms, café, bar, cinema, lounges, spa, balconies and nursing stations.
It will be run by Hamberley Care Homes and provide a range of services for people with conditions including; dementia, multiple sclerosis, strokes and motor neurone disease, and will provide accommodation for people of all ages.
The site is located in the centre of Cofton Hackett and was occupied by the former Rolls Royce and McLaren dealership and a BMW motorbike showroom.
The site, currently vacant, is set to be demolished.
Council chiefs made the decision last week and it has now been delegated to the head of planning for approval - subject to certain conditions.
