ThePalmsHotel / Rightbiz
A 9 letting bedroom guest house for sale, located right next to Torquay’s idyllic harbour and seafront. This established business has been operated successfully for many years and generates an impressive income which allows our clients to take time off and travel during the winter months. The business has undergone a recent refurbishment programme and benefits from parking, a large dining room, a garden to front with mature shrubbery and palm trees. The owner’s accommodation is 1 / 2 bedrooms and benefits from a large lounge / dining room. Due to lifestyle choice / extended family, they only trade with five rooms over a period of 5 months, still producing an impressive income. Early viewings are highly recommended.

Torquay is one of the UK’s most popular holiday destinations, with a good all-year round trade and being only a short distance from Dartmouth and equal distance to Plymouth and Exeter with its international airport, mainline train station and M5 motorway. Situated off Torwood Street, benefitting from being on the main scenic tourist route into Torquay and having high vehicular passing traffic.
BUSINESS
This highly profitable business has been successfully owner operated for many years and benefits from a high repeat custom and is much liked by visitors and locals alike. Only trading 5 x months per year, we the agents feel there is great scope to improve on the already impressive turnover and subsequent net profit. Actual trading figures will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
