Oscar winner and film legend Dame Judi Dench was the guest of honour at the opening of Lingfield Park's Marriott Hotel & Country Club which marketing and communications agency, the Remarkable Group helped to launch.
Catherine Reid, Remarkable's account director, organised the media and photo shoot with the actress on the day. Best known for her recurring role in the 007 James Bond films, the day was certainly marked with a capital ‘M' as dame Judi cut the ribbon with aplomb.
The new £29 million four-star hotel, launched as the first on-site, integrated racecourse, hotel, spa and golf resort in the UK, has received wide spread media coverage thanks to award winning-agency Remarkable.
Horse-race loving Dame Judi said: "It's a pleasure to be asked to officially open the new hotel. With such breathtaking surroundings, this is a unique venue, which I'm certain will be enjoyed by everyone that has the opportunity to stay and visit."
The launch of the hotel follows a long line of successful media campaigns for Lingfield Park, which have been driven by Remarkable.
Catherine said: "It was an honour to meet Dame Judi and pull together another successful media campaign for Lingfield Park, proving even meeting a movie star doesn't leave us feeling shaken or stirred!"
