Hotel Projects

With a proven track record of transforming properties into thriving hospitality destinations, Tim House brings deep industry insight, strategic foresight, and hands-on leadership to every project he undertakes.

Recent & Ongoing Projects

Tim was the lead consultant on the acquisition, redevelopment, and relaunch of a coastal retreat in Portugal. Once derelict, the property reopened in November 2022 as AlmaLusa Comporta, a sophisticated seaside escape. As both advisor and board member to the investor group, Tim oversaw every stage of the process, ensuring alignment with stakeholder goals and delivering a commercially and creatively successful opening. He now remains as a Board member and in-house consultant to the investor group.

In the UK, Tim is guiding the transformation of a rural hotel in Yorkshire, shaping a vision for its revival and repositioning in the market.

He also recently led the business development of a private estate in South East England, now operating as a high-end exclusive-use retreat, ideal for events, long stays, and corporate gatherings.

Earlier projects include the creation of a boutique townhouse hotel in the Cotswolds, where Tim directed the full hospitality setup from a blank slate, converting a private residence into an exceptional guest experience.

He played a key role in launching a new lifestyle brand in the Home Counties, integrating restaurants, bars, delis, bakeries, retail, events, and workshops into one cohesive concept.

Previously, as Hotel Director of both The Idle Rocks Hotel and St. Mawes Hotel in Cornwall, Tim led the redevelopment of both properties. He notably rebuilt the Idle Rocks after storm damage in 2014, reopening just 66 days later. At St. Mawes, he managed the post-renovation relaunch and reassembled the core team.

Current Consultancy Work

Tim continues to offer strategic troubleshooting and operational support across the UK, including for a country inn seeking revitalisation, and ongoing advisory roles across Wales, the South, and South West England. He also consults on team recruitment and developed the concept for a coastal “beach shack” restaurant.

Vision & Approach

Tim specialises in full-scale hospitality start-ups and relaunches, working closely with owners and investors to shape and realise their vision. Whether it’s a country house hotel, a city-based restaurant, a coastal resort, or an urban boutique property, his consultancy is always tailored to the specific needs and aspirations of the business.

What sets Tim apart is not just the breadth of his experience, but the quality of outcomes he consistently delivers. Every project, regardless of size or style, is underpinned by his unwavering focus on service, quality, care, and commercial success.

While he’s widely regarded as a Cotswolds specialist, Tim works extensively across the UK and Europe, bringing with him the same dedication and attention to detail no matter the location.
