Bentley Motorhomes, the British manufacturer of award-winning coachbuilt motorhomes, has gone into liquidation
Entering liquidation means the company will be wound up and will no longer trade.However, there remains some hope that an investor can be found to resurrect the short-lived manufacturer.
Bentley Motorhomes employed 26 staff and had a turnover last year of close to £2.4 million.

Andrew Cordon of corporate rescue and recovery specialists, Begbies Traynor, which is handling the liquidation, told outandaboutlive.co.uk that: “It is particularly disappointing to be called into such a well-run company and one that has an excellent reputation for the quality of its products.
“The market in which the company trades is extremely competitive and the recent poor weather has done little for sales. We have received considerable interest in the business, which, at this early stage, is encouraging.”
