Description

Description

Superb seafront holiday apartments right on the beach with breath-taking views across the inner Moray Firth to Chanonry Point. This is a great opportunity to acquire a well performing lifestyle business which has potential for further growth. The business has been owned by our clients for over 20 years and are now genuinely looking to retire.

With the tranquil seafront setting and breath-taking views the apartments are situated in a great location with Inverness, Nairn, Fort George, Loch Ness, castles, dolphins, ospreys and golf on the doorstep.

Location

The Dolphin Bay Suites & Apartments are located in Ardersier, a small village within the Scottish Highlands situated between Inverness and Nairn. Inverness City Centre is 11 miles to the east, and it is within easy reach of Inverness Airport with Edinburgh three hours’ drive to the south.

Cairngorm National Park and the Whisky trail are within an hour and we are superbly located for day trips throughout the whole Highlands.

Ardersier has many popular attractions including The Highlanders’ Museum, Castle Stuart and Fort George making it well worth a visit.

The Opportunity

Our clients have owned and managed the business for over 20 years and are now reluctantly selling due to retirement. This easy to manage and profitable business presents a great opportunity for a new owner to benefit from a well performing lifestyle business which has potential for growth. The apartments are advertised on the Dolphin Bay Suites website and via Visit Scotland. There is huge potential to increase the revenue by advertising through Booking.com and Hotels.com.

The business boasts fantastic reviews on Google, TripAdvisor and Expedia and because of this it retains a great amount of repeat custom.
