Located in the city centre, close to Cabot Circus and Castle Park, Castlemead boasts 360-degree panoramic views over the whole of Bristol, a Tour de France themed micro-mobility hub and a number of sustainability credentials, including a Platinum Plus 100 Cycling Score. The space also champions a commitment to greener travel.
Commenting on the news, Natalie Bennett, senior associate director at Hartnell Taylor Cook, said: “The spectacular occupancy rate is testament to Bristol’s soaring office market. It’s great to see Castlemead’s success – the development highlights not only the city’s commitment to high-quality Grade A office space, but also the importance that occupiers are starting to place on green credentials.”
Greg Davison, portfolio manager at Floreat, added: “Castlemead continues to let very well following a substantial refurbishment programme undertaken over the last couple of years, with occupancy now at 94%. The quality of space and amenities on offer at a sensible price point continues to attract interest from tenants looking for good value. The next focus is taking the building to 100% occupancy."
