Harris Williams Advises Intermediate Capital Group PLC on its Investment in Travel Chapter Ltd

Harris Williams, a global investment bank specializing in M&A advisory services, announces Intermediate Capital Group PLC’s (LSE: ICP; ICG) investment in Travel Chapter Ltd (Travel Chapter), alongside the management team. Travel Chapter is a portfolio company of ECI Partners (ECI) and a leading platform for high-quality self-catering holiday rentals in the U.K. The transaction, led by Will Bain, Stefan van de Ven and Andreas Illmer of the Harris Williams Consumer Group, extends the firm’s track record in the travel and leisure sector.

“The vacation rental sector has seen continued strong performance during the COVID-19 pandemic and there are compelling long-term tailwinds. Travel Chapter’s position as one of the leading operators in the U.K. market makes it a very attractive investment opportunity,” said Will Bain, a managing director at Harris Williams. “ICG’s investment will enable Jayne McClure, CEO of Travel Chapter, and her team to continue to deliver on Travel Chapter’s exciting growth strategy. We look forward to watching their continued success and future development.”

This transaction builds on Harris Williams’ expertise in the broader sector, having advised Sykes Holiday Cottages on its sale to Vitruvian Partners and Siblu Villages on its sale to Naxicap Partners.

Travel Chapter is one of the U.K.’s leading holiday rental platforms, offering a wide selection of around 8,000 high quality properties across the U.K. It has a number of consumer brands, including its flagship brand Holidaycottages.co.uk and specialist lifestyle and regional brands such as Canine Cottages and Cottages & Castles, all focused on delivering exceptional customer service. Travel Chapter was a prior portfolio company of ECI.
