Leonard Curtis appointed liquidators of Stapleford Park Limited
Alex Cadwallader and Neil Bennett of Leonard Curtis were appointed as joint liquidators of Stapleford Park Limited on October 28, 2024.
Stapleford Park Limited traded the luxury hotel in Leicestershire which features 48 guest rooms and 500 acres of parkland surrounding a Grade I listed mansion.
Despite efforts to reach profitability through multiple hotel management partnerships and significant investment from shareholders, the business was unable to generate the turnover required.
The company employed 92 staff members who were all made redundant considering the liquidation process. All former staff have been advised to contact the Redundancy Payments Service, which will process eligible claims following the commencement of liquidation.
The company did not own the property and the future of the hotel remains uncertain at this stage.
Commenting on the process, Alex Cadwallader said: “Our priority was to ensure the most orderly wind-down of trading possible. Significant efforts were made to communicate with and re-locate of the guests that were staying at the hotel, which was at approximately 50% occupancy.
“Leonard Curtis attended the site and worked closely with front of house staff to make this possible, and the wider group also met some essential costs to limit the impact on guests and future bookings. However we fully appreciate that some guests will have been adversely impacted.”
Please note that The Stapleford Estate is an unconnected separate business and is not part of the same group. It is not subject to these proceedings.
