Description

Featuring five uniquely different self-catering apartments, a two bedroom luxury farm house (with two hot tubs), treatment and wellness rooms, a hydrotherapy bath experience for couples, as well as two standalone hot tub buildings situated alongside a wild brook.

Location

Located just outside Ramsbottom, Greater Manchester, Brook Bottom Farm offers the tranquillity of rural living with easy access to local amenities, walking trails, and cultural attractions. Situated in superb surroundings amongst East Lancashire moorland, Brook Bottom is located less than 2.5 miles from Ramsbottom, 3.5 miles from Rawtenstall and only 16 miles from Manchester City Centre.

Brook Bottom Farm is approximately 100m off the main road, whilst Brook Bottom Brook running alongside and woodland to the rear, provide attractive backdrops to the setting.

Internal Details

Over recent years, the current owners have undertaken a full redevelopment of the old farmhouse, construction of the treatment rooms and all the outbuildings, the new courtyard and the full landscaping of the grounds. Lovingly renovating the main farmhouse building, the owners have created a number of guest experiences in the wonderfully finished outbuildings.

External Details

The whole complex sits on approximately one acre of grounds. Surrounding the property are lovely gardens which guests can enjoy sitting together on the numerous patios based around the property with seating. There is parking facilities for 15 cars.

The Opportunity

The holiday apartment business boasts a 9.5 score on booking.com and has been awarded the booking.com Traveller Award, 2023, 2024 and now 2025. The business also has a near perfect 4.99 score on Air BNB and a perfect 5* Google rating. The business operated at a year round occupancy of 57% , so there is significant room for growth in the business going forward. The business has sustained annual growth in occupancy since opening in July 2022. The main farmhouse, and five apartments are offered to guests on a self-catering basis. At the same time, this could equally be an amazing residential property for a purchaser looking for multiple self-contained aspect perhaps, or the ability to house family members, guests or indeed onsite holiday rentals, within the curtilage of the property itself.

The business also benefits from a fixed annual rental from the treatment rooms of £42,640.
