Cycling. The Way We Move

Cycling has always been highly promoted within the company. Our maintenance team cycle when moving around the city.

Benefits are numerous; faster guest response times, get to know the city, zero emissions and allowing for daily exercise.

Reservation teams use cycling as their preferred mode of transport, when meeting guests or doing routine property inspections.

Many of our employees have benefited from the " Bike To Work Scheme " facilitated by the company during the years.

Our Founders, Johnny & Philip have both cycled the Mizen to Malin challenge, 640 kilometres for 'Cycle Against Suicide Charity'.
