Providence Hotels secures new lease acquisition of Mary Mount Hotel in the Lake District

[Bath, 12 September 2024] — Providence Hotels, a leading UK-based hotel management company, is pleased to announce the successful lease acquisition of Mary Mount Hotel, a picturesque property located in the heart of the Lake District. This acquisition marks a significant milestone in Providence Hotels’ expansion strategy and solidifies its commitment to managing premier hotel properties across the United Kingdom.

Situated on the shores of Derwentwater, Mary Mount Hotel is renowned for its idyllic setting, offering guests panoramic views of the lake and surrounding fells. The hotel boasts a rich history, with a reputation for exceptional hospitality, making it a sought-after destination for leisure and business travellers. When the family initially acquired the hotel, it was a charming Arts and Crafts building, with only 14 bedrooms. Over time, it has steadily evolved. As Providence Hotels, our mission is to respect the hotel’s rich history and the family’s legacy while continuously enhancing the guest experience.

Sybrand Engelbrecht, Business Development Director at Providence Hotels, highlighted the long-term benefits of this acquisition, “This partnership, with the owners of Mary Mount Hotel, reflects our commitment to sustainable growth and long-term value creation. By securing this lease, we not only expand our operational footprint but also strengthen our ability to deliver increased revenue streams for our stakeholders.”

Providence Hotels believe that the foundation of long-term success lies in the strong, values-based relationships we build with the owners. It has been a true privilege to collaborate closely with the family, who are deeply committed to maintaining the hotel’s exceptional quality and preserving its unique, welcoming atmosphere. Their dedication ensures that the hotel continues to operate in the same distinctive and friendly manner that has always defined it.

“We are thrilled to add Mary Mount Hotel to our portfolio. This property perfectly aligns with our strategic vision of expanding into key locations across the UK, particularly in areas that offer a unique and memorable guest experience. We look forward to enhancing the hotel’s offerings while preserving its charm and character.”

Dagmar Jungbauer, Director of Operations, added, “The addition of Mary Mount Hotel is a testament to our continued focus on quality and excellence in hotel management. We are excited to work closely with the hotel’s existing team to elevate the guest experience and build on the strong foundation that has already been established.”
