NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015
1
Accounting policies
1.1
Accounting convention
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).
As at 31 December 2015 the company had net liabilities of £4,302,023.

Channel Hotels & Properties Limited, the parent company and principal creditor, has indicated that it will continue to provide ongoing financial support to enable the company to continue in business for the foreseeable future. The directors therefore consider it appropriate for the accounts to be drawn up on the going concern basis.
1.2
Turnover
Turnover represents joint venture income, fees and rent received during the year.
1.3
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Investment properties are included in the balance sheet at their open market value. Depreciation is provided only on those investment properties which are leasehold and where the unexpired lease term is less than 20 years.

Although this accounting policy is in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008), it is a departure from the general requirement of the Companies Act 2006 for all tangible assets to be depreciated. In the opinion of the director compliance with the standard is necessary for the financial statements to give a true and fair view. Depreciation or amortisation is only one of many factors reflected in the annual valuation and the amount of this which might otherwise have been charged cannot be separately identified or quantified.
1.4
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax is provided in full in respect of taxation deferred by timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes.
2
Debtors
Debtors include an amount of £4,738 (2014 - £20,955) which is due after more than one year.
