Profitable Pyrenean Auberge B&B With Four Gites For Sale

Business description

Currently operating as a successful 6 bedroom Hotel/Restaurant with 4 gites offering accommodation for up to 30 people, this business could easily be converted to a B&B with gites if desired. Situated in the stunning Ariege Pyrenees, a popular tourist destination recently awarded National Park status and close to several ski stations, the Auberge and gites have year round bookings and a good international client base. The business is offered for sale with furniture and fixtures included, a bi-lingual website and a well established marketing profile. The Auberge is featured as an author’s pick in the Rough Guide to the Pyrenees and the French equivalent, Petit Futé. The Auberge and gites are situated in grounds of 0.5 acres bordered by a river, ideal for trout fishing. At present, owners’ accommodation consists of a one-bed private apartment but there is the possibility of converting the 100m2 attic space into further accommodation if desired. The business is showing year on year growth and offers an excellent opportunity for a husband and wife team.
