A provider of high-end holiday rental cottages has secured a new round of funding to support its growth and create 24 jobs.
Birmingham-based 海角视频 Cottages, which was founded in 2019, will use the £500,000 to increase its presence across the 海角视频 with staff based in each major tourist area.
The fresh capital has been provided by The FSE Group Debt Finance Fund, part of the Midlands Engine Investment Fund (MEIF).
This latest investment follows more than £1 million in equity funding previously raised through Birmingham-based venture capital firm Midven, also via the MEIF.
