Independent and full of flavour is how we describe The House of Daniel Thwaites; the collection of pubs, inns and award-winning hotels from the family brewery which began over 200 years ago.
Many people will be familiar with the name of Thwaites from the collection of pubs and the brewery. In recent years, the company have been busy behind the scenes developing a portfolio of high quality hotels with conference facilities and spas. Quality, innovation, craftsmanship and warm hospitality were at the core of the business six generations ago and today, they remain an important focus in bringing all the elements together.
The House of Daniel Thwaites
Rick Bailey, Chief Executive of The House of Daniel Thwaites explains more:
“The House of Daniel Thwaites is not another dull collection, it’s not even a brand – it’s a mindset, created through the eyes of the people working in our kitchens, bars, spas and housekeeping of our properties. It’s what differentiates us and putting it all together under The House of Daniel Thwaites is the clearest way for us to help our customers understand us.
“It stands for quality, rich experiences and feeling comfortable and at home wherever you find us.”
The company enlisted the help of its staff in developing The House of Daniel Thwaites. Hundreds of team members were involved in the new proposition and bringing it to life.
Rick Bailey:
“We’re all really excited about it – an organisation powered by our people, with ownership of their own properties, delivering superb hospitality in outstanding properties in great locations.”
Each property in the collection has a unique story, individual character and a superb guest experience. Our team at Findmeaconference are sharing six of their favourite hotels from the collection below.
The Aztec Hotel & Spa, Bristol
This venue has a combination of 20 meeting rooms, suites and syndicate rooms with a maximum capacity of 200 delegates.

The hotel is now taking this service to a new level of satisfaction by offering superfast, 100MB/100MB broadband. This makes it the first UK hotel to offer a self-service speedy option for conference delegates and hotel guests.

Our team certainly appreciate the location of North Lakes Hotel which is convenient for the M6 and therefore has great access to Manchester, Newcastle and Edinburgh. It is another award-winner from The House of Daniel Thwaites because North Lakes Hotel has won the Large Hotel of the Year Award at the Cumbria Tourism Awards 2018.
The conference centre welcomes up to 200 delegates and has ten meeting rooms with lots of nature daylight. Why not include some team-building activities like clay pigeon shooting or white water rafting?

Creativity is encouraged with the numerous event spaces being flexible and adaptable.

The Solent Hotel and Spa is ideal for Portsmouth and Southampton. It sits in mature woods and ancient meadowland which is one of the reasons why our Findmeaconference team love it! The peaceful setting makes it feel like you’re miles from anywhere. This is perfect when privacy and confidentiality are important at events such as product development.
