3
Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same accounts.
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
Presentation currency
The accounts are presented in £ sterling.
Going concern
The balance sheet shows shareholders funds of £2,116,905 (2022 - £2,416,396). Losses for the year of £299,491 (2022 - £315,710) have been incurred. The directors have performed a financial review for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements and they have assessed that, taking account of possible future downsides, the company will have sufficient funds to continue its operations. The directors consider that the going concern basis is still applicable to the preparation of the company's financial statements, on the basis that adequate resources are available to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company's ability to trade is dependent on the continued support of the parent company.
Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents income from the use of the hotel facilities recognised at the time the service is provided and is exclusive of VAT.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Investment property
Investment property is initially recorded at cost, which includes purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure. Investment property is revalued to its fair value at each reporting date and any changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. If a reliable measure of fair value is no longer available without undue cost or effort for an item of investment property, it shall be transferred to tangible assets and treated as such until it is expected that fair value will be reliably measurable on an on-going basis. This is in accordance with FRS 102 which, unlike the Companies Act 2006, does not require depreciation of investment properties. Investment properties are held for their investment potential and not for use by the company and so their current value is of prime importance. The departure from the provisions of the Act is required in order to give a true and fair view
Inventories
Inventories have been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.
Pension costs
The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. Contributions payable are recognised in the profit and loss account when due.
