The Story So Far…
Potterton’s of the Cotswolds was founded in 2025 by us, Ivo and Molly, to help independent venues grow and thrive. We bring a combination of experience across sales, marketing, operations, and government-led sustainability, allowing us to shape practical, long-term strategies that deliver real results. The name reflects Ivo’s farming roots and his passion for farm-to-fork dining.
Now based in the Cotswolds, we spotted a clear gap: great venues often excel in experience but fall short in reach and commercially effective marketing. Potterton’s bridges that gap with revenue-driven strategy, not vanity campaigns.
Our work centres on smart sales, meaningful partnerships, and building networks that convert directly into bookings.
Our approach to sustainability ensures growth is not just profitable, but responsible—embedding practical, government-aligned strategies that strengthen both reputation and longevity.
Our goal is simple: to help venues increase revenue, expand their networks, and gain meaningful exposure through strategies that deliver real results.
We exist to help our clients not just survive, but excel.
Growing Great Hospitality
We believe independent venues hold a unique place in hospitality. Often owner-led, they face constant pressure to build a profitable business while standing out in a competitive, underfunded market.
We founded our business to support these venues with practical, affordable, and effective strategies across marketing, events, and sales. Too often, the “behind the scenes” areas are under-resourced—but that’s exactly where we come in.
Our commitment is simple:
Improve sales through practical action
Increase brand awareness with tailored marketing
Build clear, long-term strategies without compromise
We believe every venue can succeed with the right focus and intent. We bring experience and a strong network to help make that happen.
Join the Journey
We partner with a small number of venues each year to deliver real, measurable results that drive long-term growth.
Our approach is personal and tailored to your business and goals. If you’re looking to accelerate your marketing, sales, or partnerships, get in touch for a free, bespoke assessment.
