What this business does
Primary activity: Other holiday and other collective accommodation
Sector: Accommodation & food service
Investor take
PursueAsset-holding vehicle. Family succession underway — not a classic acquisition target.
Opportunity 76/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Same-surname younger director in place — likely family handover, not open to sale. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

Owner dependency
56/100
Moderate — manageable with handoverSome founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.
FACTORS
- -5 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
- +Senior director age: Director aged approximately 64 — approaching natural succession window.
- +Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.
