Guest House/Hotel in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria, Sold

Uplands Of Cartmel Ltd, a superbly appointed Guest House/Hotel in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria, was sold to a new owner in July 2013 by Knightsbridge Business Sales Ltd.

The substantial Victorian property stands within three acres of private and well maintained gardens, and boasts tremendous views of the Leven Estuary on Morecambe Bay and the Furness Peninsula. With prominent signage on the main road through Cartmel, a private, secluded driveway leads to the property, comprising 5 well appointed en-suite letting rooms and a popular restaurant and bar, also open to  non-residents, and offering a weekend carvery, a la carte menu, light lunches and afternoon teas. The hotel has developed a great reputation with tourists and visitors, taking advantage of the picturesque location and its easy access for exploring the Lake District. The business also enjoys repeat business with many of the customers coming back year on year.

Samantha Wright, a senior negotiator for Knightsbridge Business Sales who acted on behalf of our client to agree a sale, commented "The business attracted so much interest, a high number of prospective purchasers were left disappointed after being turned away when the business went under offer. This was a pleasant, straightforward transaction, under offer within 3 months of being on the market with Knightsbridge, and sold within 4 months and I would like to wish all parties good luck for the future."
