Purchased by the vendors in 2005 the business was operated as a self-catering business until 2010 and since that time has operated as a Hotel, latterly trading in wet sales only. Due to the need to upgrade fire safety requirements the Hotel has not traded with letting rooms in recent years but we understand that bringing the Hotel into full operation again would be a fairly straight forward matter and the vendors have full details of the requirements to do so. The footprint of the property offers excellent amenity space extending to circa 1.5 acres. The internal aspects of the property require a degree of redecoration. The vendors accept that new owners would be better placed to develop the business both in terms of facilities and trade. -
