JOHN MAPPIN on Clubhouse

Bio

Being born into a Jewelery and Silver family who served the Royal Houses of England and Europe continuously since the 1700’s, it can be said, almost literally, that John Mappin was introduced to the preferences of nobility and luxury from an early age. Keen, however, to make his own way in the world, the teenage John Mappin and a friend sold silver balloons outside the famous London store, Harrods. Mappin enjoyed the interaction with people, and was quick to notice that after purchasing a balloon, people tended to walk away smiling. This set the tone for many of his future endeavors, which aimed at making people happy.

Today one of the owners of the Camelot Castle Hotel in Cornwall, Mappin’s life took several turns on the way to this point. He was in the stockbroking business for a time, traveled to Hollywood in the US where he worked in the film industry, mainly in film distribution, and later set up a company selling story rights to producers of films and documentaries.

John Mappin is also something of a media mogul and owns a newspaper group in London that publishes a number of local newspapers. Mappin is a strong advocate of true and unbiased reporting and, in line with his attitude of trying to make people happy, a firm believer in promoting positive news items that are encouraging and heartening for his readers, rather than slanted or discouraging news items. As an independent publisher, Mappin tries to spread a message of universal peace and inner tranquility through his newspapers. With the acquisition of Camelot Castle, John Mappin may have fulfilled a dream – but he still has more dreams. He would like to establish a chain of mythological hotels around the world, offering superior service while spreading a message of tranquility and hope. Many people say that they want to change the world – John Mappin’s actions are evidence of his intentions.edit.
