Martin Davis, Director with Graham + Sibbald who handled the sale on behalf of the former owners Hassan Ali and his family, said:

“We are sure that the Glenridding Hotel will prove to be an excellent addition to the Inn Collection Group, given the properties excellent location close to Lake Ullswater within the beautiful Lake District National Park.

Despite the fact that the hotel was marketed by way of a confidential off market campaign, we were able to generate a high level of interest in the Glenridding Hotel for our clients which demonstrates that the appetite and demand for good quality well located hotels continues.

We are pleased to have achieved a good result for both our clients the Ali family as well as the purchasers, the Inn Collection Group who have secured yet another hotel to add to their expanding portfolio. We wish the Inn Collection all the very best with their latest acquisition and look forward to watching their continued growth.”
