Description
By the Water’s Edge!
An impressive 9-bedroom hotel, located by the water’s edge, is now for sale in what may be one of Cornwall’s premier coastal destinations. This highly successful establishment has been owner-operated for over 20 years, with part-time staff as needed. Thanks to its location, reputation, high TripAdvisor scores, and loyal, repeat customers, occupancy is extremely high, leading to impressive profits. The property includes flexible owner’s accommodation with one or two bedrooms, along with several beautiful guest reception rooms on the ground floor, each benefitting from stunning views. A sweeping chrome-and-glass balustrade wraps around a terrace offering 180-degree views over Looe and the bustling harbour.
LOCATION
The town of Looe is one of Cornwall’s most popular and picturesque port towns, with the beautiful River Looe meandering through spectacular protected landscapes and meeting the sea here, accompanied by a fishing fleet and busy quay. The town’s narrow, winding streets offer a wealth of retail boutiques, restaurants, cafés, bars, and more. It is ideally situated for access to the main A30 motorway, linking to the cities of Plymouth and Exeter, which also connects to the M5 motorway and international airports, as well as providing good rail links to London.
BUSINESS
This bed-and-breakfast hotel has been successfully operated for over 20 years by a husband-and-wife team, with part-time assistance when required. Presented to a high standard throughout, this property is both beautiful and ideally situated. It boasts breath-taking views, high-quality accommodation and level access to the town, beach, harbour, restaurants and town centre. With a high rate of repeat trade, it benefits from low commission costs. The 9 bedrooms are finished to a very high standard, generating an impressive income. Actual trading figures will be available following a formal viewing. A comprehensive handover and training will be provided to ensure continued success. This is an opportunity not to be missed, and early viewings are highly recommended.
