What this business does
Primary activity: Other holiday and other collective accommodation
Sector: Accommodation & food service
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)
Distressed unclear — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 57/100 (worth a look), bankability 55/100. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (45/100).

🏦

  • · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
  • · Legal-friction score 15/100 — clean.
