LOCATION
Illogan is situated between Redruth and Camborne and both towns offer a comprehensive range of shops, banks, leisure facilities and schooling facilities. The nearby A30 dual carriageway offers easy access to neighbouring towns of Penzance and the cathedral city of Truro. Both Helston and Falmouth are easily accessible. The North coast of the county is approximately 2 miles distant and there are a number of sandy beaches within a comfortable driving distance as well as miles of rugged coastal walks.

THE BUSINESS
The business is run by a husband and wife team who are now wishing to retire and will be sad to leave this home business after 12 years working at this established guest house. The guest house utilises only 5 of the rooms (for family reasons) but the additional bedrooms could be used for added income. The guest house provides just a bed and breakfast service but any new purchaser may wish to offer an evening meal as part of the package. Lyndhurst Guest House does have a web site where one can see the property in more detail. www.lyndhurst-guesthouse.net
There is a facility on the site to email the owners but believe in this modern day that with the correct software people could also book and pay for the accommodation on line. The property does have WiFi internet access and each room is equiped with digital TV and tea and coffee making facilities. The majority of the rooms have a bath or shower and toilet en suites. Every room has a wash hand basin with hot and cold water.

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
It is felt that the flat could potentially be let out on an Assured Tenancy basis which would generate further income and it is felt that you could achieve a rent in the region of £350 - £400 per calendar month. We believe that a further flight of steps could be added in the roof space with possible dormer to the rear to create the owners accommodation.
