A North Yorkshire luxury hotel and spa – the Feversham Arms Hotel - has fallen into administration. The venue is, however, continuing to trade and no redundancies are planned.
Oliver Collinge and James Sleight of PKF Littlejohn Advisory have been appointed as joint administrators
The hotel, in Helmsley, North Yorkshire, was built as a coaching inn by the Earl of Feversham on the site of an older hostelry. In 1967 the hotel was bought by Charrington's Brewery before subsequently being bought by Mr and Mrs de Aragues in 1977. The de Aragues extended the hotel and added the swimming pool and gardens.
It was in the hands of a number of private owners before being bought by Feversham Arms Ltd in 2008.
The hotel continues to operate as normal under the control of the administrators, and is set to be put on the market shortly. All hotel staff – believed to number around 80 - are being retained, and no redundancies are planned.
Collinge said: "All deposits paid and bookings already made, including for events, will be honoured and will go ahead unaffected and as planned. Similarly, any vouchers that people have for use at the venue can be used as normal.”
He said that the hotel will continue to take bookings for future events and sell vouchers as normal. These will be ringfenced to provide assurance to guests and customers.
“It's very important to us that the hotel should continue to provide the high standards of service that guests are accustomed to,” said Collinge."The Feversham is a stunning hotel in a beautiful location. With 33 guest rooms, a luxury spa and a range of upscale dining experiences, we anticipate especially strong interest and we're very confident of finding a buyer and securing the long-term future of the hotel and its team."
