“The fact that such high-profile brands have committed to the future of this town speaks volumes and I hope to be a regular visitor myself, and to see all the occupiers prosper in the coming years.”
Viscount Matt Ridley, owner of Blagdon Estates, added: “This is a proud moment for all involved in bringing this first phase of developments at South Beach to fruition.
“I would like to thank every individual that has been part of the story of The Links so far and cannot wait to see our next phase of development coming forward.”
There are three units still remaining at the development, which has land set aside for a potential second phase.
