Phoenix Business Agents are delighted to place onto the market this Freehold Guest House which has been established for over 23 years. Our clients have owned the business for over 8 years and now wish to sell in order to spend more time with their family.

The business provides 14 rooms which are offered as a bed and breakfast service. The charging rates vary from £35 - £40 for a single room to £55 - £60 for a twin or a double room and up to £100 for a family room.

The owners who are a husband and wife team share a majority of the operation of the business with 1 part time cleaner who is employed for 12 hours per week.

The business is well marketed, being on numerous web sites and enjoys virtually full occupancy. It is an easily run concern.

There is huge potential to increase turnover by extending the premises. There is ample opportunity to create 4 to 8 further bedrooms and therefore increase the turnover to approximately £150,000 per annum

Our clients would be available for a business familiarisation period if required.
