In the main premises are two stunning reception rooms, the guest house kitchen and five en suite letting bedrooms. On the LOWER GROUND FLOOR is a surprisingly spacious owners' suite. The property has been notably upgraded and refurbished over the last six months. It is briefly described as follows:

    The Business

    The business was acquired by our clients at the very beginning of 2026, but they have decided to put the business on the market due to their wish to relocate to be closer to their family in the south-west of England. Nevertheless, during their short period of ownership, they have carried out multiple and significant redecoration and upgrading of the trade areas and this will be evident to all who view.

    Initial trade has been healthy, and they are already approaching over £20,000 worth of bookings for the forthcoming season.
