Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102 §1A
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Abridged
- Yes — abridged accounts (limited disclosure)
- Auditor
- Menzies LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company has strong cash reserves and the directors therefore believe the Company has sufficient resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Following 3 years of detailed planning and design in relation to hotel refurbishment work finally started on site beginning of March 2024. The whole refurbishment was completed in phases within 12 months by end of February 2025.”
- “Revenue decreased from £6,190,698 in 2023 to £5,856,527 in 2024 a decrease of 5.4%. Key reason for this decrease was disruption to hotel operation during refurbishment.”
- “Full cost of hotel refurbishment was carried out from company own cash reserves. As a result, cash at bank, in hand and investment assets decreased from £7,282,860 to £4,215,439 in 2024. Anticipated total cost of refurbishment will be circa £7 million.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
