Within the Lake District National Park, currently trading as a B&B, annual income of circa £350,000

Welcome to Lyth Valley Country House Hotel, Lyth, Kendal, LA8 8DB
Within the Lake District National Park, an impressive period country house,
currently trading as a B&B/exclusive private hire in a prominent roadside setting
with stunning panoramic rural views. Redeveloped in 2015 and finished to a high
specification, offered in good condition with the benefit of attractive furnishings and
all commercial fittings in order to continue trading.
The property offers 9 individually styled and generously proportioned ensuite
bedrooms all enjoying delightful views with a characterful restaurant and bar, all of
which is set in c. 1.6 acres including gardens, seating terraces, private parking and
a hot tub.
The property is popular for both B&B (when staff are employed on an as and when
basis) or for exclusive hire for family parties and party weekends when guests either
cater for themselves or arrange professional catering.
The Lyth Valley Country House offers immediate asset management opportunities
for a new owner to continue with the existing use, all of which is currently let through
skiesholidays.co.uk, a company based locally in Bowness. There is potential to
generate an annual income of circa £350,000 - £500,000.
There is also possible future development potential to expand the existing
accommodation or explore the residential potential either as a single or multiple
dwellings (subject to the necessary consents). If buyers are looking for a change
of lifestyle then certain guest rooms could be commandeered as owner’s
accommodation and the property operated in hand.
Available by separate negotiation to the property, there is the opportunity to acquire
various other parcels. Including Heron Shepherd’s Hut which is also available for
letting and a field (5.23 acres) on which is run 28 day camping during the summer
months when a shower and WC block is moved onto site.
Furthermore there is a paddock extending to 5.98 acres with substantial detached
barn, which we believe could potentially create two dwellings consisting of a two
bedroom and three bedroom property in conjunction with the Lyth Valley Hotel
whether as additional guest accommodation or for owners/management.
Finally there is another paddock extending to 4.37 acres.
This in an exciting and rare opportunity to acquire such a superb and complete
package.

Location
The Lyth Valley sits on the edge of the Lake District National Park and is sheltered by surrounding
limestone hills and thus enjoys a relatively mild micro-climate which over the years has enabled the
creation of multiple damson orchards. Alfred Wainwright said that
“The supreme joy of the Lyth valley is its annual springtime renewal”, with damson blossom “appearing
as white puffs of smoke all over the valley”.
An excellent base for exploring South Lakeland, the Lake District and the west coast of Cumbria, the
Lyth Valley is easy to reach off the M6 without getting caught up in the usual holiday traffic of the
region.

Step inside
Built around the turn of the last century, the property has retained much of the architectural feel of an Arts and Crafts Movement house of that period.
Extensively remodeled and refurbished in around 2015 the work included all new bath and shower rooms with heritage style suites and tiled floors, a well equipped commercial kitchen and characterful
bar, dining room and lounge area, first floor balcony, flagged terrace, and finally, all new oak internal joinery (doors, flooring, skirting boards and architraves), new PVC windows, carpets and floor coverings,
curtains, furnishings and décor.
Ground Floor
A substantial oak door opens into the entrance vestibule and from there through to the staircase hall, a welcoming entrance with serviceable stone flag floor and a double height stairwell.
An office is conveniently placed for keeping an eye on arrivals and is fitted with a desk, shelving and a stable door to the hall.
The restaurant, bar and sitting room are all open plan and make a great sociable entertaining area.
The bar has a stone flagged floor and a substantial oak fronted bar over which hangs feature pendant lighting. Three fitted drinks coolers and open shelving, for the hot drinks there is a water heater and
coffee bean grinder. In the bar area there is built in oak seating, including a cosy alcove with square table and fitted three sided bench. In an alcove off the bar is a preparation/washing area with black granite
counter tops, a dishwasher and small sink unit.
The lounge with oak flooring is open in two places to the restaurant and itself provides comfortable seating around a wood burning stove with carved oak mantelpiece. There are bi-folding doors and also
French windows to the balcony.
The bright and spacious restaurant has a dual aspect to the east and south and French windows leading out to the balcony. With some old dark oak carved paneling and modern oak floor boards, it is an
atmospheric space.
Cloakroom facilities comprise ladies (two WCs and three wash basins) and gents (one WC, two urinals and one wash basin).
Oak swing doors from the restaurant and hall with circular windows open to the commercial kitchen; fully specified with appliances comprising a Turbofan Blue Seal convection oven, Charvet ovens and hob,
grill and deep fat fryers, Henkleman Vacuum Sealer (Jumbo 42) system all of which have an extraction hood over. Dishwasher and pot wash area, hand wash sink, fridges, warming drawers and a food pass
for service.

Step outside
The first floor balcony with glass and chrome balustrade separated by stone
built pillars gets the morning sun and is favoured for breakfasts, morning coffee
and brunch. The roadside terrace enjoys the afternoon and evening sun and is
surrounded by sandstone walls with outside feature lighting.
Guest parking directly off the public highway.
There is an external cloakroom for the use of staff.
The total site measures 1.58 acres.
Available separately are the following Lots:
Lot 2 – Blue 5.23 Acres Heron Shepherd’s Hut There is also a 28 day camping area
set up during the summer months when the vendors move a shower and WC block
onto site.
Which offers double bed accommodation, a small kitchenette counter with sink and
a cosy electric burner to keep the hut warm and welcoming. A private compost toilet
and shower cubicle facilities are tucked just a few steps away.
Lot 3 – Pink 4.37 acres of pasture land.
Lot 4 – Green 5.98 acres including a substantial detached Lakeland Barn. Which
could potentially be converted for additional accommodation connected to the main
property. We believe its possible to create a two and three bedroom property.
