Inverness Campervans , Highland

DESCRIPTION
Inverness Camper Vans is an excellent opportunity for someone who wishes to run a profitable lifestyle business. The present owners run the business operation to suit their lifestyle choices. The business operation is based purely on the hire of campervans for either 5 or 7 day minimum hires. The campervans are rented from the campervan fitout company which the owners also own, Inverness Leisure Vehicles (ILV). It is intended that the new owners would either buy the vehicle stock from ILV or buy a different type of van from another source.

The business operates over the main tourist months, and historically has retained one of the vans for occasional hire over the winter. Currently the business operates with a mileage limit of 100 miles per day. This trading strategy has been rewarding for the current owners and the business benefits from 5 star reviews on Google.

The business uses Wheelbase, to completely control their bookings and take all payments. It is said that it very easy to use and provides a great level of reporting.
REASON FOR SALE
The vendors have owned Inverness Camper Vans for several years. It is their desire to retire that brings this well-appointed property to the market.

The vehicles are all VW Transporter T6, 3 short wheel and 2 long wheel base vehicles. Two have the standard low roof, two have a popup roof and one vehicle has the permanent high roof configuration, sleeping between 2 and 5.

LOCATION
Though based in Nairn currently, the business could be located anywhere, though the name suggests a location close to Inverness. Inverness acts as the transport hub for the north of Scotland, with all main truck routes meeting here. The Highlands of Scotland is a great attraction for visitor, with the NC500 to the North and the Great Glen and the Cairngorm National Park to the south. To the east is the whisky trail and the NEC250 is growing in prominence. These tourist specific natural attractions make campervan holidays very attractive, particularly in remote areas where accommodation is sparse.

Inverness is the commercial and administrative centre for the Highlands of Scotland. It is a vibrant city with a population in excess of 50,000 and a geographical shopping catchment area spanning 10,000 square miles, with a potential catchment population of around 200,000.

Inverness is a busy tourist destination with its population swelling greatly in the main tourist season. Whether it is a whisky trail, a boat trip on Loch Ness or a visit to one of the many accessible Scottish castles, the property is ideally situated to catch the eye of the many tourists who choose to visit.
