SOLD - Lowther House Bed & Breakfast with Tea Rooms, Pickering

BED AND BREAKFAST WITH TEA GARDENS in Pickering 

A rare opportunity to acquire this bed and breakfast business with stunning tea gardens and tea rooms.  The concern is situated in this idyllic rural setting overlooking the picturesque babbling brook which runs down the side of the tea garden and attracts lots of wildlife.  Surrounded by nature and woodlands, yet is only a two minute drive or a 15 minute stroll from Pickering with its steam trains and castle. Run by our clients throughout the year with the Tea Garden operational between April and October. Our clients take five weeks holiday per year and are selling due to retirement.  Younger, enthusiastic owners could do so much more here, for example evening bistro or introducing an alcohol licence would make a big difference, subject to any necessary consents.  The premises offer the right enthusiastic person to expand the business with its Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence and rated Excellent on Booking.com with excellent Google reviews, loyal local customers and returning guests.  Rarely do bed and breakfasts of this quality reach the open market - after valuing businesses for over 50 years, this one stands out.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.  

The premises are held on a secure lease, very sensible rent and comprise reception leading to the dining room which can also be used as an indoor tea room, owners delightful lounge, service kitchen, food preparation kitchen, shower room and toilet.  First floor four excellent bedrooms (three of which are en-suite, the other is used by our clients).  All guest rooms have tea / coffee making facilities, fridge and have open views across the gardens and beyond.  The premises have the benefit of a central heating system.  Externally are the magnificent tea gardens where guests can walk and admire the stunning gardens and see the wildlife visiting the brook, lovely patios, pergola, beautiful lawns, summer house with double bed (the summer house has potential glamping options, subject to any necessary consents).  There is also a huge barn which is ripe for development for further accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
