Business History
Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market this superb 8 letting room guest house which has been established for over 50 years and has been in the careful hands of our client for the previous 13 years. The only reason this excellent opportunity is being offered to the market is due to the unfortunate ill health of our clients. Since our clients took ownership of the business they have built up an outstanding reputation for the quality of their accommodation and standard of service, indeed they were runners up in the Ambassador awards in 2007 for Proprietor of the Year and the have been awarded a Visit England ‘Breakfast Award’ for the last two years, for the quality of their breakfasts. We are informed of an annual turnover of £60,893 with high gross profits which is derived from the lettings of their guest rooms. Our clients currently provide no evening meal service and only a limited bar service providing great scope for any prospective purchaser as due to ill health the business is now run at a pace to suit our client’s needs. The business has been awarded 3 stars by Visit Britain and enjoys a high percentage of repeat and regular visitors. Our clients are currently investing in a new website with full site optimisation that any new buyer would benefit from. The business enjoys a superb, substantial corner plot location with ample private parking with stunning landscaped gardens and is only a 10 minute leisurely walk to Southport’s main Lord Street and all of it’s attractions. Our clients feel the current owners’ accommodation is in need of refurbishment and therefore reduced their asking price from £449,000 to help cover this cost. They are also open to part exchange offers. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase a well established business with an outstanding reputation with great scope for improvement and as such early viewing is highly recommended.
