Bridge House, The Bridge, Boscastle, Cornwall, PL35

Bridge House occupies a central position within the favoured North Cornwall coastal fishing village of Boscastle. The property is in the heart of the village, near to the principal car park, retail areas and en route to the Edwardian fishing harbour and dramatic coastline. Boscastle is a popular location with many character properties and is also close to King Arthur country with the nearby village of Tintagel.

This is far more than a property - it's a ready-made lifestyle opportunity, offering the perfect balance between home, income, and flexibility.

Set in a lively and popular location, the property welcomes guests through an attractive, enclosed courtyard. A real sun trap in the warmer months, this inviting space seats up to 42 and naturally draws passing trade, creating a relaxed and sociable atmosphere for customers to enjoy.

Inside, the tea room is full of charm, with an attractive servery and seating for 12, flowing easily through to a well-equipped kitchen with direct access to the courtyard - ideal for smooth day-to-day running. There is also independent access to both the main entrance and kitchen, offering practicality and ease for both owners and guests.

A particularly appealing feature is the versatile ground floor en suite bedroom. Originally part of the tea room, it has been thoughtfully converted to provide accessible accommodation and is now a popular letting room - though it could just as easily be reimagined again depending on your vision.

Upstairs, three further en suite letting bedrooms provide comfortable and welcoming guest accommodation, alongside a customer WC and useful laundry room.

The second floor offers a true retreat for owners; spacious and well-proportioned apartment featuring a cosy lounge with wood burner, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

It's a private and comfortable space, perfectly removed from the day-to-day business when needed.

The Lifestyle & Business Opportunity

Currently run by a husband-and-wife team with one full-time member of staff, the business has been intentionally shaped around a balanced way of life. The tea room operates limited daytime hours for part of the year, while the letting rooms provide a steady and reliable income stream.

For those looking to grow, there is clear potential to extend opening hours, introduce evening dining, or develop a stronger non-resident breakfast offering. Equally, the flexible layout allows for a more relaxed approach - whether that's reducing letting rooms or increasing private living space.

With turnover exceeding £155,000 (year ending March 2025) and multiple avenues for further growth, this is a solid and successful business - but one that can easily be tailored to suit your own pace, priorities, and lifestyle.
