Windermere Park B&B, New Road, Windermere, LA23 2LA

Windermere Park is a fine, detached, Victorian House which retains many of its original features, with a prominent corner location in the heart of Windermere Village.

Located in a prime trading position within walking distance of shops, cafes, restaurants, and bars. It is also a five-minute walk from Windermere Railway Station and a 15-minute walk to Lake Windermere.

Situated on the main road in the popular tourist destination of Windermere, which is in the heart of the Lake District National Park (a UNESCO World Hertiage Site), it is an area that receives 18 million visitors per year, with visitors drawn to the beautiful scenery, rich heritage, and excellent local food and drink offering.

This popular hotel benefits from strong year-round trade, and has been maintained to a high standard to offer high quality, boutique accommodation and a warm welcome.

Originally built as a Victorian gentleman’s residence, the property retains many period features and its stained glass windows and vaulted ceilings were inspired by Oscar Wilde’s talks on interior design when he lectured in the Lake District.

To the side of the hotel is a terrace area (used previously as a café). To the rear of the property is a private car park (18 spaces).

The current owner has invested in many upgrades and refurbishments during their time of ownership to create a popular and inviting boutique hotel that welcomes both domestic and international guests throughout the year.

The prominent and convenient location cannot be overstated, with easy access to shops, bars, and restaurants. An easy five-minute walk from Windermere Railway Station, as well as a 15-minute walk from the shores of Lake Windermere. The key, eye-catching, road-side, corner position on Windermere’s main thoroughfare is complemented by an ample private car park.

The business is currently staffed and operates on a bed and breakfast basis. However, there is scope to change the operational style to room-only (there are numerous cafes offering breakfasts just a few minutes' walk from the hotel), thereby freeing up space to create additional guest accommodation.

Turnover is in excess of £330,000 per annum. More information is available to genuine purchasers upon request.
