Hotels, Flixton, North Yorkshire

LUXURY B&B AND RESTAURANT in Scarborough for Sale.

Ernest Wilsons are delighted to present this immaculately maintained and award winning hotel and restaurant, which has been successfully owned and operated by our clients since 2016. During their ownership, the property has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment and enhancement, establishing a highly regarded reputation for quality and service.

Beautifully positioned on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds and within close proximity to the Yorkshire Heritage Coast, this exceptional property combines lifestyle, business, and development potential in an enviable location.

The premises operate as a six bedroom boutique hotel alongside an intimate 32 cover, Two AA Rosette restaurant. In addition, there is a spacious three bedroom owner’s residence, with the flexibility to create a fourth bedroom or nursery by adapting the existing walk in wardrobe. Previously our clients also operated as a tearoom and could be again.

Weekly turnover £3,500 to £4,000. Extending to over 400 sq m, this substantial property offers significant scope for further development, including the potential to add additional letting rooms. The lodge occupies a generous plot of approximately 0.9 acres.

Planning consent has already been granted for the installation of shepherd’s huts. The space also lends itself well to marquee events, making it ideal for weddings and private functions. Further opportunities include camping or glamping use, as well as residential or commercial development, subject to the relevant consents.

The property is discreetly set back from the main road in Flixton, an ancient and picturesque village on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds, ideally located between Scarborough and Filey along the Yorkshire Heritage Coast. Flixton is a thriving heritage village, surrounded by attractive hamlets and coastal communities. North Yorkshire welcomes over 34 million visitors each year, with Scarborough and the Yorkshire Coast ranking as the second most popular destinations after York.

To the rear lies a beautiful approximately 0.5 acre orchard, offering excellent development potential. Parking is available for up to 12 vehicles.

After more than 10 years at the property, the owners have recently taken steps toward retirement, resulting in the business operating on very limited hours:
Letting rooms and motorhome / camping trade for nine months of the year, closing in November and January, with limited operation during December, February, and March. Despite this, the business achieves a healthy turnover of approximately £80,000 and operates on excellent profit margins.
The restaurant currently opens just three evenings per week and generates an annual turnov
