The Business – An exceptional bed and breakfast guest house which is highly rated and is run by a husband and wife team which is now available as the owners wish to move nearer their grandchildren. Trade has been restricted to letting only 3 or sometimes four of the five bedrooms, from choice. There is a high percentage of repeat trade and the business is not offered on Booking.com. Expedia is used. 100% of Tripadvisor Ratings are Excellent. New owners could increase trade by offering all five bedrooms and further accommodation is available if the sea view office was returned to being a single letting bedroom, ideally if linked to one of the en suite bedrooms.
The tariff for a double room ranges from £100 to £135 per night for bed and breakfast with £170 charged for the two largest rooms being used by a family.
Due to restricted trading the informed turnover is approximately £40,000 p.a. – Scope!
Agents’s Note: Lawrence Wright introduced this guest house to the current owners in 2018 and whilst a successful business the property was dated and unusual with access to the owner’s bedroom via a ladder up through the floor! The owners have transformed the property into one of the smartest in Weymouth and prospective buyers, when viewing, will see the photographs before and after the re-modelling. The new owners will benefit from the investment for years to come and take over a business with an exceptional reputation and a wonderful lifestyle.
