Torbay is a very popular tourist trap with all amenities and attractions within a half hours drive of the Lodge. The business is set in the right place for an upmarket guest accommodation and quoting an agent is a 'one off'.


Expansion potential
Here is a great opportunity for a new owner to increase turnover by a 100% plus or minus utilising all the letting rooms. The preferred choice of lifestyle enables the present owners to live comfortably in a superb house with an income. For those already with an income or perhaps wanting a superb property with character to install their own alternative business such as I.T. or Antiques or works of Art then this is the property for them. The alternative business can easily run side by side with the existing Guest accommodation. Only a small investment would be required to put the rooms back to their original letting capabilities. A summary of accommodation. Up to 9 letting ensuite rooms. Option to let 1/2 bed quality holiday apartment.

Competition / Market
In Torbay there are about 700 hotels and guest houses of all ratings to attract visitors but there only five or six '5 Star' rated guest houses.The Roundham Lodge is situated in a superb position in a select and quiet area of Roundham catering for the needs of the commercial, overseas business and domestic tourism which ensures an extra flow of guests throughout the whole year.
