Offered sale as a going concern with the remainder of a 10 year lease until the end of 2026. The current passing rent is £7,500 per annum plus VAT, Estate Charge and insurances. It may be possible to negotiate a new lease on longer terms if preferred. Direct supply for electricity and water supply is recharged by the landlord - there is no mains gas on site.

Business turnover for 2023 is £76,755 - which was managed lower from the prior year from £126,328. The decision was made to reduce the turnover to suit the current owners lifestyle needs and bring it under the VAT threshold. However, the demand remains to offer cookery classes to exceed the 2022 turnover for the right operator with fresh energy. The current owners usually hold 2 classes per week but previously ran more.

Would suit a chef wishing to take a new venture on more sociable terms or wishing to get into a training environment.

Interested parties could benefit from a stage payment plan for the goodwill if required. 50% of the price would be payable on completion with the remainder payable in instalments over a 2 year period. Terms to be agreed.
