Description

In 2024 the Gervis Meyrick Estate bought in the leases of three sizeable cliff-top premises - the Ocean View, Cottonwood and Bay View hotels. The Estate is now renewing and revitalising this trio and they will form the core of an emerging creative and commercial hub in the heart of Bournemouth’s historic hotel quarter. The campus is already providing the base for a number of film and media companies, including:

• Treehouse Digital - Providers of VFX, virtual production and animation services, employing up to 60 on-site staff
• BH Movies - Production company; employing up to 10 on-site staff
• Unit Base One - Flexible media office space for up to 50 creative nomads

We are looking for a food and beverage operator for the Cottonwood, a 42 bedroom hotel built around 1875, extended in the 1930s and retaining much of its original features. Our fundamental requirement is the provision of high quality food throughout the day for hotel guests (including breakfast), holidaymakers, office workers and the 5,000 residents of the East Cliff.

The space is located on the ground and garden floors of the Cottonwood and enjoys uninterrupted views over a marine horizon stretching from the Isle of Purbeck to the Isle of Wight. The space comprises:

• Ground Floor - Space for up to 25 covers
• Garden Floor - Space for up to 50 covers
• Commercial Kitchen - 150ft2 of part-furnished kitchen space
• Parking for up to 20 vehicles with additional spaces available in the neighbouring properties
• Substantial outdoor space in the gardens can be made available
• Potential for on-site staff accommodation

As a forward-facing space provider, the Estate is prepared to offer commercially attractive terms to the right operator. We have a proven track record of collaboratively delivering food and beverage opportunities, most recently with the Colin Nash Restaurant at The Retreat New Forest.

The space is immediately available. If you think this opportunity might be for you, get in touch:
