20 Bedroom Hotel And Restaurant In Suffolk For Sale

Business description

We are delighted to offer for sale this long-established hotel and restaurant, which has been in our client's careful hands since 2005 and is only now offered for sale due to a change in our ill health. The hotel occupies a number of buildings including a 16th century tithe barn, which has been beautifully restored and is used primarily for civil wedding ceremonies and wedding receptions. The premises also boast 20 chalet-style rooms, all with en-suite facilities, a lounge bar, a restaurant, a commercial kitchen and a self-contained 1-bedroom cottage. The business also offers a 4-acre field, gardens and parking and there are a number of planning consents in place. Our client has developed a warm and welcoming atmosphere, which ensures much repeat trade and personal recommendations. The hotel, until very recently traded all year round and generated a turnover in the region of £300,000 with a gross profit 65%. The hotel was run at a pace to suit our client, who recently took the decision to close the hotel, due to ill health. We feel that a new owner could easily achieve a turnover at previous levels and with a modest marketing campaign, increase turnover. We feel that this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a substantial hotel in a ready to trade condition, in such a delightful location. Early discussions with us must come highly recommended.
