I couldnt get over how small the Spyker is. Interior is a thing of beauty.

building is owned by national trust; Hotel business is owned and operated by Von Essen; Von Essen holdings went into administration last month.

Xj220 is absolutely stunning in the flesh. Green one was far more immaculate than the blue one. However looks like the blue o e gets used
It's Naitional true land, as said the Hotel is run by Baron Von Kissalot and went I to Admin last month. Probably because his selling a sandwich for £100 idea went wrong

In fairness James, each of the Hotels is trading successfully, it was the holding company's Grandeur and the reduction in valuation of the properties which sank/is sinking the holding company; Rumours of nearly £200million wiped off the asset value don't help.
The only hotel in the chain to go into Liquidation is Huntstrete which in all honesty seemed to be being run as a training centre as it wasn't generating any income. But each of the individual hotels operates under its own Limited status and each of them is generating income and profit.
