Family-run hotel changes hands

-

THE family-run Nuremore Hotel & Country Club in Carrickmac­ross, is set to undergo a change of ownership next month when it is taken over by the The Kylin Prime Group on February 17 next.

The hotel is being sold as a going concern and will continue to operate business as usual, with all staff continuing to be employed. All bookings and deposits, including deposits for weddings, conference­s, events, gift vouchers, leisure centre and golf course membership­s will be honoured on the same terms as they were entered into.

‘We have been in business for over 50 years in Carrickmac­ross,’ said Julie. ‘During that time, we are proud and privileged to have become an integral part of the community.’

‘On a personal note, I, along with my daughters; Suzanne,

Louisa and Emma; would like to thank our sataff, past and present, from the bottom of our hearts, for all their loyalty, hard work and most importantl­y of all their friendship over the years at the Nuremore and beyond. We have been truly blessed, and are eternally grateful for the hard work and dedication shown by so many over the years. The Nuremore Hotel management team and staff, have proved over the years that the biggest asset of the Nuremore, has always been the wonderful staff that work so hard to make the hotel the amazing venue that it is.’

‘ The Kylin Prime Group are fortunate to be inheriting such a hard-working, dedicated, talented and loyal team.’
