Mortgages for Guest House & B&B Businesses

A kinder approach to Guest House & B&B mortgages

With over 20 years’ experience in Hospitality lending, our mortgage experts are dedicated to providing a personal, straightforward and responsible service.

We look beyond the numbers to help you grow your business – whether you want to pursue a Commercial mortgage for the purchase of a new Guest House or B&B, or refinance an existing one, our expert Commercial mortgage team will guide you through the process every step of the way.

A relationship-managed service

We offer a fully relationship-managed service with every customer provided with a single point of contact. Our team of relationship managers will take the time to get to know you and your business from the outset. At The Cumberland, we’ve got real people making real decisions for real people like you. We look at cases differently, and our decisions are made by real people, not robots.

  • Fully relationship-managed service
  • Long term lending
  • Colleagues with real industry experience and the ability to shape and structure transactions
  • Price based on our assessment of the risk within the business
  • Local pricing and credit decisions enabling quick responses

Your mortgage is secured on your property. Think carefully before securing other debts against your property. Your property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
