Hide AdRobert Parker said: “It has been a real privilege to own the four hotels in the Robert Parker Collection, but retirement becomes an inevitability as one reaches the grand old age of 80 years. We have been blessed throughout our ownership of them, with fabulous staff who have delivered a quality level of environment, food and service which is second to none. We owe them a great debt for all that they have contributed for so many years. I have no doubt that in the future we shall become regular paying guests.”
The hotels are being marketed through Gary Witham, director of hotels at Christie & Co. He said: “These are stunning heritage assets in prime locations, which Robert and his team have placed well to perform very profitably going forward.”
No prices have been disclosed.
