LOCATION
Weston-super-Mare is a large coastal town in North Somerset with a resident population of around 90,000. Best known for its glorious beach and famous Grand Pier, it remains a popular holiday destination and the town continues to grow, with new housing developments under construction.
Communication links are excellent, with the M5 motorway on the doorstep, making the area increasingly popular with commuters to major centres such as Bristol, less than 20 miles away.
The unit occupies a prominent corner position on Baker Street, just off the town centre, surrounded by offices, homes and other local businesses, and around a 10 minute stroll from the seafront.
