8 En Suite Bedroom Guest House In Ulverston For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this very well established business that has been in our clients' hands for the past 13 years and is now being placed on the market due to retirement. Run very much at a pace to suit, the guesthouse offers huge scope for new owners to develop and build upon its excellent reputation. The business is run on a bed and breakfast only basis at the moment. There is huge scope to develop with the introduction of food for non-residents. It had once been a restaurant with 50 covers. There is scope for Christmas packages, weddings, funerals and christenings as well as meetings. Currently, the business trades at a level to suit and closes on a regular basis, allowing the owners to take many holidays. The annual turnover is in the region of £55,000. The guest house offers at present 8 en-suite letting rooms with 2 bedroom self-contained living accommodation. With a little thought the accommodation could be reconfigured, placing the owners' accommodation within the attic space, thus allowing for more letting bedrooms if so wished. The basement could also be converted to possible function rooms. This is such a fantastic eye-catching guest house at the heart of this thriving and well visited town, offering infinite scope for the future. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial come highly recommended.
