The Ormsgill Inn trades as a wet-led public house with 9 letting bedrooms which are operated on a bed and breakfast basis. The business is popular with both workers and tourists visiting the Furness Peninsula and the nearby Lake District National Park. Our clients, who have operated the business for over 30 years, currently run it as a lifestyle business which leaves huge potential for increased trade through the introduction of a food menu, further marketing of the public house and letting rooms and an extension of the current opening hours. Additionally, the two self-contained apartments could be let on the short-term holiday market and could each achieve upwards of £150 per night. The en suite letting bedrooms each achieve in the region of £80-£130 per night with occupancy levels above 50% all year round. The business boasts high ratings on  and TripAdvisor, and demand for letting rooms in the area is due to increase with the expansion of the nearby BAE Systems.
