Administrators PKF Littlejohn Advisory has completed the sale of the trade and assets of the Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa to a new company, The Feversham Arms (2025) Limited, a company owned by Rockliffe Hall Limited. The sale was completed on 29th August.
Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa is a 33-bedroom boutique hotel and spa located in the traditional market town of Helmsley, North Yorkshire. The hotel welcomes guests from all over the world to relax, indulge, and experience the famously warm Yorkshire hospitality in a well-considered boutique countryside retreat.
Rockliffe Hall’s owner recognises the appeal of Helmsley and the surrounding areas for UK and international travellers and sees the ongoing potential for the hotel. Rockliffe Hall, an award-winning five-star resort hotel with spa, golf course and multiple restaurants on the County Durham and North Yorkshire border, also owns The Pheasant Hotel, a quintessentially English country inn in Harome, North Yorkshire.
The hotel will continue to operate in its current format and all employees will be transferred under TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) regulations), with all contracted terms and conditions remaining the same.
Joint Administrator, Oliver Collinge commented “We are delighted to have completed this sale to Rockliffe. We would like to extend our thanks to the staff at the hotel; they have made a huge contribution to ensuring a successful outcome by maintaining the high levels of service that the hotel’s guests expect, despite the challenges and uncertainty that administration brings. We would also like to thank Rockliffe for a smooth transaction – we are sure the hotel will go from strength to strength under their ownership.”
