About

Old buildings, one at a time.

We buy the buildings other people pass over, restore them properly and look after them ourselves.

01Who we are

Restore, let, hold.

Watson Group is run by William Watson through three divisions: Lettings, Commercial and Developments. Blake House in Bakewell is our first project. We keep the stone, the windows and the proportions a building was built with, bring the services up to date, and then stay as the owner, so guests and tenants deal with us directly.

  • Long-term owners

    We hold what we buy and look after it ourselves.
