About Us:


We are one of Europe's foremost providers of up-scale hotels and experience tours. 

We are a small company with a big personality. Flexible thinkers, non-conformists, tenacious & resilient people who break the 'boring' rules of companies that do not put the customers first, succeed with us. Yet despite our prominent presence in the marketplace, we consciously maintain our organisation at a smaller size as we have a steadfast belief that this allows us the flexibility, the energy and the pace to prosper. We want less of a corporate structure and more of the creativity, momentum and zing of a world-class team of achievers.

Doing the right rather than the convenient thing and putting people before profit has led to us successfully trading for 20 years AND yet being a pioneer in our niche. A feat which makes us consistently stand out from today’s beige world of ‘average’. It’s a company ethos you either support or you don’t – there is no middle ground.

If this philosophy complements your beliefs, then we can offer you an opportunity where creativity and initiative are rewarded and we aim to develop every team member to their full potential. This makes for a stimulating environment, full of ambitious and enthusiastic people who do what it takes to achieve.
