Chairman Robert Peel said 'Our challenge is to control our
overall costs of doing business in line with modest overall
turnover growth. Revpar growth is key to increasing our profits and
we have made solid progress in this area albeit at the expense of
volume. It is difficult to be certain post Brexit but a low pound
certainly should encourage incoming volume as well as serving as an
incentive for British residents to spend more of their leisure time
at home. Net debt continues to fall with the consequential
reduction of finance costs on an ongoing basis. We look forward to
another year of progress.'

the restructuring of certain bedrooms at the Crown & Mitre
Hotel in Carlisle and on the completion of Bistro George at the

The Future
Our challenge is to control our overall costs of doing business
in line with modest overall turnover growth. Revpar growth is key
to increasing our profits and we have made solid progress in this
area albeit at the expense of volume. It is difficult to be certain
post Brexit but a low pound certainly should encourage incoming
volume as well as serving as an incentive for British residents to
spend more of their leisure time at home. Net debt continues to
fall with the consequential reduction of finance costs on an
ongoing basis. We look forward to another year of progress.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM RESULTS
for the period ended 14 August 2016
1. Basis of accounting
The interim financial information has been prepared on the basis
of the recognition and measurement requirements of adopted IFRSs as
at 14 August 2016 that are effective (or available for early
adoption) at 29 January 2017. Based on these adopted IFRSs, the
Directors have applied the accounting policies, which they expect
to apply when the annual IFRS financial statements are prepared for
the year ending 29 January 2017.
The group has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 (Interim Financial
Statements) in preparing these interim financial statements and
therefore the interim financial information is not in full
compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The financial information set out in this interim report does
not constitute statutory accounts as defined in sections 434 and
435 of the Companies Act 2006. The figures for the year ended 31
January 2016 have been extracted from the statutory financial
statements which have been filed with the Registrar of Companies.
The auditor's report on those financial statements was unqualified
and did not contain a statement under section 498(2) and 498(3) of
the Companies Act 2006.
The group's accounting policies remain as stated in the group's
full annual accounts for the year ended 31 January 2016.
2. Taxation
Tax has been provided at a rate of 20% which represents the
expected effective rate for the full year.
3. Earnings per share
Earnings per share are based on the profit after taxation and on
the weighted average number of shares in issue during the
period.
