THE BUSINESS
This very attractive guest house is located in an excellent trading position and has been completely refurbished and re-branded by the current owners, who in our opinion have decorated and furnished it to a high standard.

During their ownership they have built-up a good reputation with many repeat guests and from trading only 9 months a year (they close mid Nov - mid Feb) - we are informed that the turnover is just below the Vat threshold at approximately £68,000 per annum. And, it is felt, that this could easily be increased if desired, by opening more often. (Further detailed accounting information will be made available to seriously interested parties after an initial viewing).

The current owner use the local councils tourists on-line booking system, as well as one of their own, and their own website, all which very successfully generates lots of clients, many coming from mainland Europe, and we are informed that there are already many bookings in place for the coming year.
