Description

A beautifully, successfully owner-operated period-styled 14-bedroom hotel is set in approximately an acre of grounds in the heart of the most sought-after rural East Devon countryside. Nestling midway between Exeter and Ottery St Mary, this property overlooks fields and hills on all sides and is very private, being accessed via an impressive tree-lined entrance avenue. The site is ripe for expansion or development. Previously, The Grange traded as a successful hotel with associated airport parking. This property is being offered in magnificent condition with glorious period-style features, 14 bedrooms on 2 floors all with bespoke modern ensuite facilities. There is a large owner's self-contained flat and early viewing is highly recommended.

Situated midway between Exeter and Ottery St Mary, and within easy reach of the A30, this property has excellent links to Exeter Airport. The City of Exeter is the County Town of Devon and is a 10-minute drive to the West. It is known for historic buildings and a cosmopolitan lifestyle and has been voted as the 3rd most desirable city in the UK. It is a university town with excellent theatres, restaurant facilities, major high street shops, and a magnificent Cathedral. Exeter is host to the Met Office and the chosen centre for the HQ for many high-tech companies. There is a famous quayside with superb waterside facilities for leisure boat owners, including numerous public houses alongside the canal and the River Exe. Proper Devon market towns are within easy reach, including Ottery St Mary and Honiton.
