Description


An opportunity to purchase an outstanding freehold detached property centrally located in Pooley Bridge and successfully trading as an established eight luxury bedroom hotel with a highly acclaimed award-winning licenced restaurant providing 38 covers.

Planning consent is approved to construct a detached 3 bedroom ancillary house within the grounds for occupancy by the business owner or business staff.

Situated within the Lake District National Park, recently voted a UNESCO World Heritage site and nestling on the northern shores of Ullswater surrounded by the iconic fells, Pooley Bridge is conveniently located approximately 6 miles south west of Penrith and junction 40 of the M6, 15 miles from Keswick and 24 miles from Ambleside. The famous picturesque village is an all year round tourist honey pot and provides a wide range of amenities being surrounded by breath taking countryside with excellent local walks, cycle routes, pony rides from the local trekking centre and water sports available on Ullswater with its award winning iconic cruise steamers which sail from the nearby Pooley Bridge pier. There is a regular bus service and several public car parks.

This is a retirement sale by the present owners following 16 years of successful trading including rebranding in 2016 as "1863 Restaurant With Rooms" and represents an ideal purchase for either investors or owner operators who are seeking a lifestyle change in a stunningly beautiful location and renowned tourist destination.
