BED AND BREAKFAST in North Yorkshire
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a thriving, bed and breakfast business run from leasehold premises which makes this opportunity very affordable and one which is situated in one of the most idyllic locations in the country. This award winning guest house has an enviable reputation and a five star rating on Tripadvisor with over 85% of reviewers rating it as “Excellent”. The premises are situated in an elevated position within the North York Moors National Park, surrounded by woodland and offering spectacular views over rolling countryside. A location which would be very hard to beat and which provides fabulous place in which to live and earn a living - SUPERB, UNINTERRUPTED VIEWS OF THE VALE OF MOWBRAY.
The business is located along the routes of both the ‘Coast to Coast’ walk and the Cleveland Way and therefore caters predominantly to walkers but also to customers seeking short breaks to get away from it all and explore the surrounding villages and countryside - the Coast to Coast will be made into a national trail in 2025 which will bring further footfall into this area. Our client has ceased providing evening meals to guests which previously brought in a very useful additional income and this would be an opportunity for a new owner to reintroduce them to enhance turnover and profitability, particularly in view of having the licensed bar. Occupancy during the season is exceptionally high and even in the off season, the guest house maintains very good levels of trade. It is very difficult to imagine that if Christmas and New Year stays were marketed correctly that this guest house would be anything other than fully booked throughout this potentially very profitable season. The majority of business comes from walkers websites and repeat bookings which means there is a benefit in that commissions are not being paid on every booking to the travel portals. Our client also deals directly with ten different companies who book directly with them and no commission is paid on those bookings either.
