Rainforest & Butterfly Freehold Visitor Centre For Sale

Business description

The business was set up 21 years ago by a couple with a passion for rainforests and the associated flora and fauna.

The business operates a tourist attraction that offers a rainforest experience with exotic butterflies, moths, stick insects and plants. The attraction also features birds and an educational facility.
Additional income is provided by a cafe (serving light snacks to main meals, beverages, ice creams and soft drinks) and a gift shop selling rainforest associated items; many of which are made by the people of the rainforests.

The facility has the benefit of spacious car parking and all the attractions are under cover providing all weather entertainment for visitors.

The café is large enough to cater for functions such as children’s parties etc.
