Six Letting Room Guest House In Kilmarnock For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this guest house, which was established in 1970 and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 1996. The guest house is only now being offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades all year round and generates a turnover in the region of £35,000 per annum with a gross profit of 90% on a bed and breakfast basis only. Dean Park Guest House boasts 6 letting rooms, all finished to a high standard throughout, and a spacious dining room. There is also 1-bedroom owners' accommodation with lounge and bathroom. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and establishing a website advertising the business and accommodation provided. There is also scope to offer evening meals to residents. The business has gained an enviable reputation over 40 years of trading and is renowned for providing quality accommodation. The guest house has a loyal customer base, enjoying much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. We feel this is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already popular guest house with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
