Meadfoot Bay Hotel is ideally located in the highly sought-after affluent residential area of Meadfoot in Torquay, along a tree-lined road leading down to the water's edge. Only a short walk away is the picturesque Marina and Harbour of Torquay, and a level walk along the Esplanade provides stunning views over the bay towards Paignton and Brixham. The Riviera Conference Centre and train/bus stations are nearby. Torquay is ranked as the No. 1 staycation destination in the UK and is an all-year-round busy coastal resort. Conveniently located along the Jurassic Coast and only an easy drive to places such as Dartmoor National Park, Dartmouth, the Eden Project, and the Cathedral city of Exeter with its International airport and M5 motorway, linking all parts of the UK.

Previously, our clients operated the hotel with a successful restaurant that achieved an income of over £600k per year, and as a guest house only, a realistic income of £300k can easily be achieved. Upon arriving at this property, you cannot help but smile at the beauty of this Victorian Villa and when entering the property, it does not disappoint. This easily operated business is turn-key, and a full handover/ training will be offered. Because of its size, versatility, and fronting two roads, it offers a complete or partial redevelopment opportunity. Currently, the business is not trading due to our clients' other pressing business interests and relocation. However, it can easily swing back into action within a few weeks. The website and social media online presence are currently on hold, but all of this will be activated when handed over to the new owners. Accounting information will be provided following a successful formal viewing.
