Sitwell Arms Hotel to see ‘major upgrade’ following £1m funding

In this episode we speak to Anthony Hunt, partner and co-head of Corporate Real Estate at law firm Howard Kennedy. We discuss why 2026 may be seen as a pivotal year for boutique hotels, unpack the rise of global nomadism and how this is shaping demand and trends across hospitality, and how a strong team and clear, consistent messaging and offerings are key to securing investment.

The Sitwell Arms Hotel in Eckington is set to undergo a “major upgrade” after receiving more than £1m in funding from Cambridge and Counties Bank.

The work will include an expanded public lounge, accommodation updates, large maintenance projects, and upgraded wedding and events capabilities.

A separate house adjacent to the hotel will also be renovated and rented out.

Jo-Anne Oldfield, owner, said: “We passionately believe the Sitwell Arms offers a wonderful experience to all types of guests and we’re truly excited by our upgrade programme. Opportunities and requirements continue to evolve post-pandemic, so we have invested to ensure we are delivering the best possible experience at fantastic value.”

The Sitwell Arms Hotel is a Grade II listed building with an original core dating back to the 18th Century.

The 30-room hotel, which used to be a coaching inn, caters for a wide range of clientele, including tourists visiting the Peak District.
