Meet the team behind Stay Original
Stay Original is run by a close-knit team with a shared love of brilliant hospitality, thoughtful design, and great food and drink. “We’re independent, ambitious and big fans of fresh thinking.”
Our Staff
A proper place to grow your career
Happy staff mean happy guests. Stay Original has been recognised in the Top 75 Best Companies to Work For in the South West, and named the region’s best hospitality business to work for overall. That’s based on feedback from more than 11,000 employees across the area, through the same survey that powers the Sunday Times Best Companies lists.
“Happy staff, happy guests – it really is that simple.”

Where fresh thinking thrives
We’re not a typical hospitality company. We specialise in breathing new life into neglected historic hotels and pubs across the South West, turning them into laid-back oases full of character, run by some of the best people in the business.
We started with one coaching inn in 2011 and have grown to six award-winning properties, with plans to double in size over the next five years.
We’re always on the lookout for people who care about what we care about: great hospitality, local food and drink, beautiful spaces, and teams that look after each other. If you’re ambitious, love fresh thinking, and want to work smarter (not just harder), we’d love to hear from you.
“Many of our team have gone from pouring pints to running the show.”
Many of our senior managers started out here as waiting staff or kitchen porters. Others have switched things up entirely – moving from the kitchen to front of house, or the other way around. We’ll always back you, with training from day one, regular appraisals, mentorship, and a genuine focus on helping you shape your own career path.
Progression
Brilliant spaces, even better people
We believe in paying well, sharing our success through bonuses, tips and perks, and rewarding hard work with trips, parties and a few surprises along the way. It’s demanding, sure – but we make sure you’ve got the best tools, brilliant local produce to work with, and inspiring spaces that make coming to work a pleasure.
“To be the best, we look for the best – and look after them too.”
Ready to join us?
So, if you’re ready to be part of an independent, ambitious company that does things a little differently, take a look at our current opportunities. We’re always hiring, always promoting, and always on the hunt for the best.
