GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
The directors present their strategic report with the audited financial statements for the group and the company of the year ended 31 December 2022.
GSE Cheriton Parc (Holdings) Limited is the holding company for GSE Cheriton Parc Limited, Imperial Green Limited, The Marquis Hotel Group Ltd, The Marquis Accommodation Ltd and Innflair Ltd.
GSE Cheriton Parc Limited owns the Hythe Imperial Hotel. The hotel is affiliated with Classic British Hotels, benefiting from the group’s expert brand exposure and marketing support to enhance its visibility and outreach. Recently, the hospitality industry has faced significant challenges, notably exacerbated by the conflict in Ukraine. This situation has led to increased energy costs and inflation, contributing to a cost-of-living crisis that has dampened consumer spending. Additionally, the surge in staycations witnessed during the COVID-19 pandemic has abated, with more people now opting for international travel, thereby heightening competition with hotels abroad. Despite these hurdles, the hotel has maintained satisfactory performance this year, although consumer spending remains cautious. The directors remain cautiously optimistic about the forthcoming year, buoyed by emerging signs that inflation and energy prices are beginning to stabilise. The directors are also exploring the option of expanding and upgrading the spa to boost future revenue. This positive shift is anticipated to bolster consumer confidence and rejuvenate spending, positioning the hotel for a stronger performance ahead. GSE Cheriton Parc Limited also owns Imperial Green Limited which completed its final phase of residential development and sold the last remaining property in the prior year. Active steps are being taken to wind up the entity. GSE Cheriton Parc Limited also own The Marquis Hotel Group Limited and Innflair Limited which both own property in the hospitality industry. Both companies lease their property and both generated a small profit during the year. The results of the group report a pre-tax loss of £225,266 (2022: pre-tax loss of £178,355) for the year on sales of £5.73 million (2022: £5.74 million).

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
The hotel continues to navigate the challenges posed by the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, which impacts both our operational costs and guest spending. The Bank of England's recent interest rate hikes, aimed at curbing inflation, are expected to stabilise the economy by year-end.
The hotel is particularly vulnerable to the direct effects of inflation, especially regarding food costs and wage increases. We expect these pressures to stabilise by 2024. Moreover, the rising utility costs associated with the broader energy crisis remain a significant concern. We are addressing these challenges by collaborating with industry experts and securing fixed-rate agreements to mitigate fluctuations in other areas. The company's principal financial instruments include bank balances, trade creditors, trade debtors, and loans within the group, all primarily utilised to finance our operations. Among these, our variable-rate loan with Oaknorth introduces an interest rate risk, which could affect our financial commitments as rates fluctuate. We manage this risk by closely monitoring rate changes and assessing potential impacts regularly. Bank Balances: We manage liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient funds to cover our operational costs while managing overall indebtedness, ensuring financial stability both within our operations and across related group companies. Trade Debtors/Creditors: We manage credit and cash flow risks through stringent policies on the credit extended to customers and regular monitoring of outstanding amounts. This ensures adherence to both time limits and credit limits, safeguarding our financial health.
This report was approved by the board on 7 May 2025 and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GSE CHERITON PARC (HOLDINGS) LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of GSE Cheriton Parc (Holdings) Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2023, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group's or the parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GSE CHERITON PARC (HOLDINGS) LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

GSE CHERITON PARC (HOLDINGS) LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GSE CHERITON PARC (HOLDINGS) LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Group financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Based on our understanding of the company, we have considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements including management override, and considered that the principal risk was related to the posting of inappropriate journal entries to improve the result before tax for the year.
We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. Procedures performed by the audit team included: • Discussions with management regarding known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations; • Evaluation of controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities; and • Assessing journal entries as part of our planned audit approach. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above, and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. As in all of our audits we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
GSE Cheriton Parc (Holdings) Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales. The registered number is 11080253.
The registered office of the company is Henwood House, Henwood, Ashford, Kent, TN24 8DH. The principal place of business is Princes Parade, Hythe, CT21 6AE.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in UK Sterling pounds (£) and rounded to the nearest pound.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases. In accordance with the transitional exemption available in FRS 102, the Group has chosen not to retrospectively apply the standard to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to FRS 102, being 01 January 2015.
The Group is reliant on continued support from its bankers and related companies which has continued since the balance sheet date. There are no material uncertainties over the Group's ability to continue to operate. The directors therefore consider the continuing adoption of the going concern basis to be appropriate.

Goodwill
Other intangible assets
All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Balance Sheet when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.

GSE CHERITON PARC (HOLDINGS) LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to the accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revisions affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Carrying value of tangible fixed assets As described in note 2.13 to the financial statements, tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The management base the useful economic life, residual value and therefore the rate of depreciation of these assets on the historical knowledge of such assets and the market within which the company operates. Valuation of investment property The group recognise the investment property on the valuations performed by the directors. The valuations are ascertained through rental yeilds and market capitalisation rates of similar properties.
