Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this old established hotel, which has been in our client's careful hands since 2004. The business is only now presented to the market due to a change in our client's family commitments. The substantial property boasts 14 en-suite lettings rooms, bar, large lounge, conservatory, restaurant, games room, function room and commercial kitchen, along with private 2-bedroom owners' accommodation. The business benefits from sizeable outside areas including a children's play area and a licensed beer garden with picnic benches and stunning views across the waterfront. There is a large, private car park suitable for approximately 16 cars. The property has been recently refurbished with new flooring and re-decoration throughout. Our client has established a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, which ensures a large number of repeat visitors every year. The business trades all year round and generates a turnover in the region of £158,000 per annum with a gross profit of 64%. There is a web site in place containing information on available facilities, location, contact details and local tourist attractions. We feel the turnover could be easily improved by marketing the facilities for private functions and by offering entertainment. This is an ideal lifestyle change opportunity, which would offer the new owner a profitable business in a great location with further potential for growth. Early viewing and negotiations with Preferred Commercial are strongly recommended.
