During these difficult times for the Hospitality sector, Countrywide Hotels are delighted to announce that they have taken over the management of a group of hotels in the midlands.
The properties will fall under the Countrywide Hotels umbrella, as independent hotels. The hotels total 650 rooms, primarily located in the Midlands and North West of England and include the group’s flagship hotel, Stoke Rochford Hall near Grantham, Lincolnshire. A grade 2 listed building, set in historic parks, a perfect setting for private events use.
Darren Patt, Managing Director of Countrywide Hotels said ‘We are delighted to be working with the owners, and taking on the management of this group of hotels. The collection of properties gives Countrywide Hotels a strong presence in the Midlands. During a period of uncertainty, many good
people are unfortunately losing their jobs. I am pleased that we continue to grow and create new roles at Countrywide for our industry colleagues. During lockdown we took the opinion to keep our properties open in support of key workers and Government contracts, this, maintained a much needed positive cash flow position for our owners.’
The growth in the portfolio for Countrywide Hotels who already manage 15 properties is a positive move. The additional hotels provide coverage for the group in the Midlands and North West England, creating greater choice for customers, clients, direct and through existing agent relationships.
The group plan to focus on repositioning the additional hotels, to bring them in line with their existing properties, whilst ensuring individuality in each hotel. There will be a continued high level of focus on, standards that guests and bookers have come to expect from Countrywide Hotels, and for
driving business from multiple channels.
