Welcome to The Haus Collective

Where Hospitality Expertise Meets Timeless Design

At The Haus Collective, we create spaces that not only look beautiful but feel deeply considered—blending textures, tones, and curated details to tell a story. Whether it’s a boutique hotel, a luxury resort, or a private residence, our approach is rooted in one guiding principle: great design begins with listening.

With over 30 years of global hospitality experience—including a decade in Portugal, projects across Brazil, the Bahamas, and the UK, and three transformative years in the cruise industry—we bring an instinctive, out-of-the-box perspective to every project. We understand how people move through spaces, what makes them feel welcome, and how design can shape unforgettable experiences.

At The Haus Collective, we offer a thoughtful fusion of hotel consultancy and interior design services—combining operational insight with creative direction to elevate guest journeys, streamline functionality, and bring character to every corner. Whether you’re reimagining a resort or designing a soulful retreat, we’re here to help you bring your vision to life—with clarity, purpose, and style.

  • Natalie Wesson

    Co-Founder of The Haus Collective

    With a rich cultural heritage—half Brazilian, half British—and a childhood spent across Scotland, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, Angola, and Brazil, my passion for interiors began at home. No matter where in the world we lived, my mother had a gift for creating warmth and belonging through thoughtful design. That early exposure sparked a lifelong appreciation for the power of space to reflect identity and emotion.

    My professional journey began in the five-star hotel industry, where I developed a meticulous eye for detail, a deep respect for quality, and a love for atmosphere. Over the years, I had the privilege of working with some of the world’s most renowned hospitality brands—including Hyatt, Sofitel, Hotel du Vin, and Six Senses, to name a few. These experiences shaped my understanding of what truly makes a space memorable—not just how it looks, but how it feels and functions for the people in it.

    After becoming a mother, I felt called to create a life that balanced ambition with presence. I retrained in interior design at the Interior Design Institute in London—and instantly knew I’d found my true path.

    At The Haus Collective, I bring together global influences, hospitality-level standards, and a grounded, intuitive approach to every project. My goal isn’t to leave my mark—it’s to help you find yours, in a space that feels unmistakably like home.

  • Mark McSorley

    Co-Founder of The Haus Collective

    I’m a proud Cork native and a graduate of the Shannon College of Hotel Management, and I’ve spent over two decades immersed in the world of luxury hospitality. My journey has taken me across continents—and across oceans—combining deep operational experience with a true passion for creating exceptional guest experiences.

    In February 2025, I took on the role of Resort General Manager at the iconic Dromoland Castle Hotel & Country Estate and The Inn at Dromoland—one of Ireland’s most prestigious five-star resorts. Before that, I was General Manager of Hotel and Residences at Quinta do Lago in the Algarve, an internationally recognised luxury lifestyle and golf resort. It was an incredible opportunity to help shape and grow one of Europe’s premier destinations.

    Throughout my career, I’ve also held senior leadership roles with Celebrity Cruises, Malmaison, Hotel du Vin, and Hyatt Hotels—experiences that have given me a broad, intuitive understanding of hospitality from every angle.

    At The Haus Collective, I bring that strategic, hands-on perspective to our consultancy work—helping our clients define their brand, refine their operations, and create unforgettable experiences that resonate with guests long after they leave.
