Barrington Associates specialise in marketing and business support for the tourism and hospitality industry.
We love food and fun, travel, creative writing, research, good coffee, Luna (our dog), marketing, fundraising for great causes, learning new things, interesting jobs, watching seeds grow, quirky ideas, walking the South West coast path, creatures, telling a great story and inspirational people.
We launched our consultancy in 2005 incorporating our favourite things. The result, we have had the privilege of working with hundreds of small rural enterprises and large tourism organisations, helping them to succeed and be their best. Along the way we have had the added bonus of visiting amazing, award-winning tourism businesses and have been inspired by some of the best entrepreneurs in the hospitality sector.
Friendly, knowledgeable and well-connected, we have more than 35 years experience and a proven track record of helping businesses to achieve what they want.
We have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of great people who are passionate about what they do and want to be the best. They include tourism and hospitality businesses, destinations, local authorities and organisations across the UK all needing practical marketing support, project management or workshops and training.
We are really proud to be the first port of call for so many fantastic tourism and hospitality businesses.
