Description
THIRTEEN BEDROOM HOTEL AND WEDDING VENUE in Derbyshire for Sale.
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold property extending to approximately 3.3 acres in a highly accessible and strategically positioned Derbyshire location. Occupying a prominent semi-rural setting on the outskirts of Melbourne, the site benefits from attractive countryside views whilst remaining within close proximity to East Midlands Airport, Donington Park Circuit and the region’s principal road networks, including the A50, A42 and M1. The property presents a rare opportunity to secure a versatile commercial asset with significant redevelopment and alternative-use potential, subject to the necessary consents.
Currently trading as the Melbourne View Hotel, the property comprises a long-established hospitality and events venue with an extensive range of facilities. The accommodation includes thirteen individually designed en-suite letting bedrooms, reception area, licensed bar, restaurant, commercial catering kitchen and function room. A purpose-built ceremony building has historically been utilised for weddings and private events, whilst extensive on-site parking and mature landscaped grounds further enhance the property’s operational capabilities.
The site offers considerable flexibility for purchasers seeking hospitality, leisure, events, accommodation or mixed-use opportunities. The property’s established infrastructure, combined with its substantial landholding and prominent position close to key commercial drivers, provides scope for continued hotel and events operation, repositioning within the hospitality sector, or redevelopment into alternative commercial uses, subject to planning.
A key feature of the opportunity is the benefit of planning consent for a comprehensive redevelopment scheme, providing purchasers with immediate value-add potential. Approved plans include the conversion of the existing buildings into a range of residential units and dwellings, offering an alternative exit strategy or phased development opportunity for investors and developers seeking to maximise site value. The scheme includes six apartments, a three-bed detached house and a four-bed barn conversion plus a three-bed existing residential dwelling.
The location has historically generated strong levels of demand from business travellers, tourists and event visitors alike. East Midlands Airport lies approximately three miles from the property, whilst Donington Park hosts a busy calendar of national and international motorsport events throughout the year. Melbourne village is located approximately one mile away, providing local amenities and services, whilst the surrounding transport infrastructure offers excellent connectivity throughout the Midlands and beyond.
The property also includes separate three-bedroom owners’ accommodation with independent access and parking, providing flexibility for owner-operators, management occupation or ancillary residential use.
Offered freehold, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial commercial property combining existing hospitality infrastructure, development potential and a highly desirable location. The asset is expected to appeal to developers, investors, hotel operators, leisure businesses and occupiers seeking a strategic site with multiple future use options.
THE PREMISES
The property currently comprises a substantial hospitality and events venue featuring 13 individually styled en-suite letting bedrooms, a spacious reception area, licensed bar, dining facilities, commercial catering kitchens and function room, including a dedicated wedding venue. The established layout and extensive facilities provide a strong platform for continued operation as a hotel, events venue, restaurant, conferencing facility or wider leisure-based enterprise.
In addition to the existing trading accommodation, the site includes several ancillary buildings and standalone accommodation units, offering further opera
