Brantwood Bar & Restaurant

Beschreibung

Dating back to the 18th century, the Brantwood is a charming and substantial period property that combines the warmth and character of a traditional village inn with the infrastructure of a well-invested hospitality business. At its core, the business is a destination food and drink venue, underpinned by a welcoming public bar, multiple dining spaces and an excellent outdoor trading area. The letting bedrooms and owner’s cottage provide valuable additional income streams. The main inn building houses the bar, restaurant, kitchen and guest accommodation, while a separate but connected building provides high-quality owner’s accommodation. Landscaped grounds, ample parking and a strong visual presence all contribute to its appeal as a turnkey opportunity for experienced operators or lifestyle buyers seeking a classic country inn. The business has been well run and well maintained and is presented to a very high standard making this a turnkey opportunity for new owners.

Lage

Brantwood Restaurant and Bar is located in the pretty village of Stainton in the north east of the Lake District National Park and just a few minutes’ drive from Ullswater, the second largest of the Lake District’s lakes and one of the most popular destinations for the many millions of visitors who visit the area each year, drawn to the beautiful scenery, outdoor activities on land and water and the rich cultural heritage. Located just a couple of miles from the major gateway into the Lake District at junction 40 on the M6 and the A66 trans-Pennine trunk road, the area is also served by the neighbouring mainline railway station at Penrith with direct trains to London, Edinburgh, Manchester and Glasgow. The village of Stainton is very desirable, residential village with a strong local community and good mix of working families and retirees, in addition to a number of popular holiday lets. The village is also popular as a convenient base from which to explore the Lake District.

The bedrooms integrate well with the overall offer, supporting food and beverage trade without dominating the business model.

Das Objekt

Having owned the business since 2007 our clients are selling so they can enjoy a well earned retirement. The Brantwood's thriving bar and restaurant trade is extremely well established with a good level of repeat bookings, excellent reviews and well supported by the local community. This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner to acquire a successful business and there is scope to increase business levels further. The demand for businesses in the north east of the Lake District, with easy access to the central Lake District, close to Ullswater and with good transport links across the country, has grown significantly in recent years and the hotel represents a great opportunity for either a commercial or lifestyle purchaser.
