Peckforton Castle Reports Record Sales
Cheshire, United Kingdom, September 26, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Award winning Cheshire hotel Peckforton Castle is reporting its best month ever for August 2010 following the successful launch of its new £1.7 million facilities.
Sales at this unique 48 bedroom venue were up 7.12 per cent in August compared with the same month last year, making it the most successful month since the Naylor family acquired Peckforton Castle in 2006.
Sales across all departments are up, with the highest growth noted for conference bookings, which rose by a massive 275 per cent from August 2009. Food and beverage sales are up 83.65 per cent from August 2009, as a result of the launch of the 2010 Brasserie in July this year and leisure activity sales rose 102 per cent from August 2009. Sales in the 2010 Brasserie rose almost 45 per cent from July to August this year.
Peckforton Castle managing director Chris Naylor comments: “In our business we expect August to be a great month, but these figures are beyond our expectations and forecasts. The growth in the conference market is testament to our success in widening the appeal of Peckforton Castle. We have fantastic facilities for the conference market and corporate clients are now appreciating that. The growth in food and beverage is a clear indication that the launch of our new 2010 Brasserie has been a huge success with both residents and non-residents.”
The new £1.7 million facilities opened in July and include 10 luxury en-suite bedrooms, the 2010 Brasserie and beauty treatment facility Tranquility. The 2010 Brasserie and Tranquility, in addition to the award winning 1851 Restaurant, welcome non-residents.
