Andy Murray hit with fresh warning over renovations at luxury £2million Cromlix hotel
SIR Andy Murray has been urged to check for bats as he plans to make renovations at his luxury five-star hotel.
The double Wimbledon champion, 37, has applied to make repairs and alterations to an outbuilding in the grounds of Cromlix House near Dunblane.
Plans lodged with Stirling Council revealed Murray and his wife Kim want to install a new slate roof on the building and fit new roof lights.
But the Scottish Wildlife Trust (SWT) have warned roosting bats could impact plans if the creatures are discovered.
Bats are a protected species under UK law and it is illegal to kill, possess or handle them without a licence or to cause them harm or disturb their habitat in any way.
The SWT said: “Due to the structure of this building/roof and its location for bat foraging, please alert the applicant to their legal duties to bats found on site.
