Zest provides EV charging facilities for luxury Cornish hotel

EV charging network Zest has invested in new facilities for the Talland Bay hotel on a secluded stretch of the Cornish coastline.

The new facilities are just the latest element of the hotel’s environmental policy, which already includes a water treatment plant and sourcing ingredients from local producers. The pair of fast charging ports run on 100% renewable energy.

Kevin O’Sullivan, the owner of Talland Bay Hotel, said: “For us it’s about more than reducing our carbon footprint. Choosing Zest shows others across the hospitality and leisure sector how easy it is to benefit from a fully managed service. More importantly, it gives our customers what they need as the demand for electric vehicles continues to grow.”

The facilities are provided, operated, and maintained by Zest. This ensures long-term reliability and means there are no costs or operational overheads for the hotel.

Featured in Muddy Stiletto’s Little Black Book, the Talland Bay Hotel is known for its secluded location, spectacular sea views and authentic Cornish cuisine.

Robin Heap, Zest CEO said: “A new movement of climate-conscious travellers is looking for reliable, convenient, and abundant EV charging. That’s where we step in, helping successful, forward-looking destinations like Talland Bay Hotel to take their place in the EV revolution.”

Based in Leeds, Zest is a fast-growing company investing in public charge points for public and private landowners across the UK, backed by the Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund (CIIF). This dedicated fund was established by the Government to help develop public charging infrastructure points for electric vehicles throughout the UK.
