About us

With over 65 combined years of experience in the hospitality sector, ranging from senior operations roles in large companies to successfully owning and transforming our own Hotel, Pub & Restaurant into a Times Top 10 Summer Pubs and Trip Advisor World Top 10% performer, our passion for creating exceptional guest experiences is deeply ingrained.

When we travel, we prioritize the comfort and authenticity of a home away from home. While hotels can be convenient, we cherish the intimacy and personal touches of privately owned properties, where we can unwind amidst familiar comforts. Whether it's dining out or cooking in, soaking in a bath after a day of exploration, or simply curling up with a good book, our aim is to provide guests with the ultimate relaxation and convenience during their stay.

Our mission extends beyond mere accommodation; we are dedicated to revitalizing tired and neglected properties, restoring them to their former glory and imbuing them with warmth and character. There's immense satisfaction in breathing new life into these spaces, creating havens for future guests to enjoy.

Personally, our interests span from exhilarating adventures like scuba diving and skiing to leisurely pursuits like savoring delicious meals paired with fine wine. Yet, at the heart of it all, we value the simple pleasures of relaxation and socializing with loved ones. At Hestia Escapes, our properties embody a refined yet distinctive upscale quality, with a cohesive design theme that complements each house and its surroundings. Each property is thoughtfully equipped to ensure a seamless and memorable stay, reflecting our commitment to providing guests with unparalleled experiences in their home away from home.
