26-bedroom hotel back on the market

Published

on

RESTRUCTURING SPECIALISTS Quantuma have been appointed joint Law of Property Act receivers over the 26-bedroom Penrallt Hotel in Aberborth.

Quantuma has appointed Colliers International to market the property.

The hotel, which also has 11 cottage rooms and a detached leisure centre, first went into administration in October 2014.

The property was sold out of administration by Colliers International but was forced to close again in May 2016.

Frank Wessely said: “Unfortunately, the business was unable to continue trading and we are now offering it on the open market.

“This provides a new opportunity for an innovative operator to take on a property that offers a number of options for a variety of business uses, subject to the necessary planning and other permissions.

“It lies close by the Parc Aberporth technology park which was created on the site of the former RAF base which may stimulate future business trade.”

Penrallt Hotel is set in 19.42 acres of landscaped grounds six miles from Cardigan and 25 miles from Carmarthen. It is an Edwardian house overlooking Aberporth Bay.

The hotel has undergone a complete refurbishment and the leisure centre includes one outdoor and two indoor pools, two gymnasiums, a beauty treatment room plus a café bar.

Quantuma has been engaged to handle the Law of Property Act receiverships for a variety of assets in the past 12 months, including residential properties across England and Wales, partly developed residential properties, hotels and central London premium parking spaces.

Founded in early 2013, the business now has seven offices in London, Manchester, Southampton, Bristol, Marlow, Watford and Brighton.

Mother admits to killing seven-year-old son in Haverfordwest

Published

on

A mother has admitted to the manslaughter of her seven-year-old son at their home in Haverfordwest, citing diminished responsibility.

Papaipit Linse, 43, appeared at Swansea Crown Court on Friday (Nov 22), where she denied murder but pleaded guilty to manslaughter in connection with the death of her son, Louis Linse. Prosecutor Caroline Rees KC confirmed the manslaughter plea would be accepted, stating it “did not come as a surprise” to the prosecution.

The incident occurred on 10 January when police were called to a property on Upper Market Street. Louis was rushed to Withybush General Hospital but tragically died shortly afterwards.

During the hearing, Linse, who spoke only to confirm her name and enter her pleas, was informed that she would be sentenced on 13 December. Judge Paul Thomas KC described the case as “clearly a very sensitive as well as a very tragic case.”

The court was told that Linse is currently receiving treatment at the Caswell Clinic, a mental health facility in Bridgend. Psychiatric evidence is expected to be presented during the sentencing hearing to provide further insight into the circumstances surrounding the case.
