DESFORD HALL & COACH HOUSE WELCOME NEW & EXPANDING BUSINESSES

19 March 2025

The historic Desford Hall and Coach House in Leicestershire are almost fully occupied after our Director, Jason Hercock secured new tenancy agreements for four of the five available offices. 

At the Coach House, specialist law firm, Michael Cummins Employment Solicitors has relocated while an existing tenant, a private company, has renewed their lease and taken a second premises. A new lease has been agreed with another private firm for office space in Desford Hall.

Speaking about their decision to relocate, Michael Cummins said: “We have taken on three fee-earners in the last six months, thanks to significant new client wins and sustainably growing levels of work and turnover. So we needed a more suitable space for the bigger team.

“The new offices and their environment really chime with the kind of firm we are – boutique, focussed, atypical and determined to be a great and enjoyable place to work. We now have the space to expand the team throughout 2025 and beyond,” adds Michael.

Our Director, Jason Hercock has acted as the managing agent for Desford Hall and the Coach House since 2019. Jason comments: “Office space at this Grade II listed property and its impressive Coach House is always highly sought-after; it offers well-maintained, modern yet characterful workspace among impeccably landscaped grounds. It was therefore unsurprising that these lettings were agreed quickly, with new tenants keen to join the established community and existing tenants eager to stay.

“I’m also especially encouraged to hear about the growth of Michael’s business. He and I have remained in contact since he was at tenant at Narborough Wood Park some six years ago. Michael has previously expressed how much he would like to return to our managed property portfolio, so I’m pleased to have secured this office at the Coach House and wish him and the team every success as they grow their business,” adds Jason.

Originally built circa 1875 as a country house, Desford Hall is one of Leicestershire’s most unique office spaces and has previously been headquarters for well-known local brands including Next and Everards. Its final available office is a 992 sq ft open plan space with ample parking. Contact Jason on 01455 559030 for viewings.
