25-Bedroom Hotel in South Cumbria For Sale in Cumbria- Business 4 Sale .co.uk

Business Summary

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this thriving hotel and restaurant, which was established by our clients in 1986 and which is only now offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The hotel occupies an imposing Victorian property which was built in 1872 as a school and renovated into a modern luxury 25-bedroom hotel. The business trades all year round and generates a turnover in the region of £825,000 per annum with a gross profit of 75%. The hotel offers 25 en-suite guest bedrooms, high quality home cooked food, real ale, fine wines and spirits. The business is licenced for weddings, civil ceremonies and caters for corporate events, parties and other functions. Our clients have gained an enviable reputation and are renowned for providing high quality accommodation with excellent customer service. There is scope to increase turnover further by embarking on a modest marketing campaign. The business enjoys much repeat trade and is highly recommended by guests. The premises are fitted to a high standard throughout and have been well-maintained. All letting rooms have been recently renovated and are fitted to the highest standard, with en-suite facilities, flat screen satellite TVs and free wi-fi throughout. Planning permission has been granted, and work has started, to extend the ground floor in order to reposition the restaurant downstairs, allowing the current restaurant to be converted into a further 5 double en-suite bedrooms. A new luxury Bridal / Executive Suite, which overlooks the chapel, will be ready beginning 2012. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
