A restaurant overlooking a football field so that fans can follow their favourite player’s training sessions while comfortably seated at a table or eat an excellent dish before or after a match: a dream for any sportsperson and now a reality at Poolfoot Farm, a very modern sports and leisure complex which is also the headquarters of Fleetwood Football Club, in the town of Thornton in the UK, thanks to the installation of pergolas made by Gibus.
The model Med Viva Pavilion was chosen, being ideal for outdoor installation and creating a perfect “Place under the Sun” that can be used year round. At Poolfoot Farm, six Viva Pavilions were installed in sequence, one next to the other, thereby covering an outdoor area with a length of thirty metres and width of six, and creating a space directly connected to the restaurant and, at the same time, only a few metres from the pitch with exceptional views.
“The Viva Pavilions, which were immediately identified by the customer as the ideal solution for answering their needs,” explained Edward Blackhurst of Duckworth Outdoor Solutions, the studio involved in the installation, “were equipped with all the accessories for maximum ease of use, allowing customers to enjoy superior comfort throughout the year. In addition to a LED lighting system, drop blinds were installed for the 13.QU side panels and Glisse glass sliding doors: in this way maximum protection from wind and rain is ensured and the outdoor area can be used even at night.”
