Sue Grundy, owner of Brooklands Guest House, is celebrating a successful first year in the Hospitality sector which has seen her five-star Guest House shortlisted for an international award.

Chartered accountant, Margaret Beattie, poured her heart and soul into nurturing a chain of serviced apartments known as The Spires, but when her connection with her business lenders dissolved due to their exit from the SME market, she faced the challenge of refinancing in a difficult economic climate.

The Cumberland Building Society has made two new key hires to its commercial team, bringing the team which has a focus on lending to accommodation-led hospitality businesses across the country to a total of 28.

A small guest house nestled away in the picturesque town of Blairgowrie, Perthshire, has been ranked as the number one destination for small stays in the UK, according to the TripAdvisor Traveller’s Choice Awards.

An award-winning Cumbrian restaurant with rooms has undertaken a series of improvements to its services and facilities following investment from The Cumberland.

Businesses are being encouraged to think green and consider how small steps to becoming more sustainable could also lead to significant financial savings.

Colleagues from The Cumberland volunteer with Cumbria Wildlife Trust.

Our Commercial sales team have continued to support hospitality businesses across the UK, lending approximately £20 million in recent weeks.
