Seafront Guest House In Criccieth Gwynedd For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular seafront guest house, which was established in 1970 and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 2002. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our clients' wish to retire. Bay View Guest House boasts 7 en-suite letting bedrooms and 2 owners' rooms. At present the business is run at a pace to suit our clients and operates from March to October and generates a turnover in the region of £35,000 per annum with a gross profit of 77%. There is scope for a new owner to increase turnover by opening all year round, offering evening meals and there is the internal configuration to add a further 2 letting rooms if desired. There is also scope to replace some of the single beds with bunks and market the guest house more toward families. There is a website in place with information about the guest house, which we feel could be further developed to offer information about the area and its attractions and perhaps, on-line booking facilities. We feel this is an ideal opportunity to acquire an easily run guest house in such a superb location. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
