Business History
We are delighted to offer to the market this well presented guest house which has been established since circa 1902 and in the careful hands of our clients since 2007. Our clients are reluctantly offering the business to the market due to their desire to retire. Since our client(s) took ownership of the business they have run the business at a pace that suits their lifestyle, meaning that there is massive scope for a new hands on owner operator to further develop the business. Our clients inform us that annual turnover currently runs at £110,000 with good profit margins, which is derived from offering award winning accommodation to all who wish to visit and a welcoming service which has built up an excellent reputation making the business what it is today. The hotel is extremely popular due to its’ location in the business district and its forward bookings run well into 2012. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business, which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as businesses of this calibre rarely stay on the market for long.
