Retained by Great Inns

06/02/2009

At their recent AGM, the Great Inns of Britain confirmed B&H as its marketing and PR consultants for the 5th year running.

B&H manages this consortium of 21 of the UKs leading, independently owned, country inns which includes the Michelin starred Yorke Arms in North Yorkshire, the renowned Inn at Whitewell in Lancashire and the hugely successful Hoste Arms in Burnham Market, Norfolk known locally as 'Knightsbridge by the Sea'.

In spite of challenging market conditions, 2008 saw record levels of sales for Great Inns Gift Vouchers and a significant increase in the amount of media coverage achieved in key national and regional titles. Major projects to be undertaken by B&H in 2009 include a total redevelopment of the Great Inns website, two themed PR campaigns and the introduction of targeted on-line marketing and promotions.

Chairman and co-founder of the Great Inns of Britain is Sir Thomas Ingilby, owner of Ripley Castle and The Boars Head. Commenting on the work undertaken by B&H for the Inns, Sir Thomas said:

"Bonner and Hindley have done a fantastic job with the PR and marketing for the Great Inns of Britain for the last four years and have worked wonders for the consortium's profile. And they are still full of ideas and enthusiasm!"
