Dumfries and Galloway Hotel Restaurant and Public Bar For Sale in Johnstonebridge- Business 4 Sale .co.uk

Business Summary

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this former hunting lodge, which has been operating as a hotel since the 1950s. The business has been in our client's careful hands since 2000 and it is only now being placed on the market due to family commitments. Dinwoodie Lodge Hotel offers 6 en-suite letting rooms, a 30 cover conservatory restaurant, 50 cover restaurant and a public bar as well as 3-bedroom owners' accommodation. The hotel offers a warm and friendly atmosphere, which has resulted in much repeat custom and good reviews on many web sites. The hotel is also a popular stopping point for coaches travelling between Scotland and England. At present, the hotel generates a turnover in the region of £200,000 per annum with a gross profit of 67%. Our client advises that currently a net profit of £50,000 is generated. A new owner could increase turnover further by, perhaps, promoting the facilities to coach operators, offering lunches from Monday to Friday and applying for planning permission to build further letting accommodation. We feel this represents an ideal lifestyle change opportunity to acquire a thriving hotel with scope for further development. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
