Graham Wilkinson said: “We are delighted to have concluded the sale of The Chase Hotel. We worked with the previous owner, Brian Proctor, to acquire the hotel 40 years ago and we have now come full circle and helped to enable Mr Proctor to retire and welcome Nejat Alkan as the new owner of this popular hotel in the heart of Whitehaven. We wish Mr Alkan every success for the future.”
