CRAFT LEISURE LIMITED
Company number 05613387 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Craft Leisure Limited is a solvent, profitable, family-owned Norfolk Broads leisure group in good fundamental health (Grade B), though trading softened in FY2025 — revenue down 9% and pre-tax profit down 29% — and year-end cash of £81k was critically thin against £5.2m of liabilities. The post-year-end sale of its entire operating business for £10.65m in August 2025 transforms the prognosis: debt is cleared and liquidity is abundant, but the company's future health now depends entirely on how the family owners deploy or distribute the proceeds.
