Luxury Cottages, which was launched in 2020, is also set to recruit another 25 new staff after receiving investment from the Midlands Engine Investment Fund, which will allow the specialist to increase its properties to more than 1,200 across the UK.

The company said Carrick’s appointment was also part of its plan to become a “leading brand” in the UK holiday cottages market.
