Stunning Guest House in Torquay
Torquay, Devon
A luxurious guest house which has been lovingly refurbished and upgraded to a high standard. This successfully owner operated business benefits from a mix of 6 double and junior suite rooms together with ample parking, courtyard garden, terrace to front and owners two-bedroom accommodation. The business could easily incorporate an additional letting bedroom and yet still provide two-bedroom owners’. Early viewings are highly recommended.
LOCATION
The Daylesford Guest House is situated in the very heart of the perennially busy seaside resort of Torquay, Devon and occupies a commanding position in the leafy area of Bampfylde Road with short walking distance to sea front, harbour and town centre. The Riviera Conference Centre and train / bus stations are nearby linking Torquay to the rest of South West of England and beyond.
BUSINESS
The business has been successfully owner operated for many years with high repeat custom and has earned itself a fine reputation with visitors and locals alike. We the agents feel that there is great scope to expand on this business not only by upgrading the present website and opening throughout the year (the Hotel is currently operating for only 8 months of the year due to owners’ lifestyle choice) but also with more aggressive marketing which can only increase existing business. Actual trading accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
