Détails: This home and holiday let/camp site business has been built up from scratch over the last 3 years and was originally purchased as a home only. The current owners have done all the major work in creating a family home with good income and there is good potential to expand the business. The reason they have decided to sell is due to family circumstances and a relocation to New Zealand.
The main home is currently set up for their personal use with a farmhouse style large kitchen/breakfast room which is a blank canvas for those wishing to design their own kitchen. The room is above average size at approx 6.5m x 5m. There is a range of base units down one side with a cooker, sink and wall units and a tiled floor. There is also a traditional stand alone flued wood burning stove which is highly efficient for heating purposes. From the kitchen a door leads into a lounge which has an original fireplace and fitted wood burner with heat vents. The accommodation on the ground floor extends to the left into workshop/hobby area, laundry and utility facilities, entrance hall and adjoining door that leads into a guest annexe used as extra family accommodation. It can be self contained and blocked off to create another lettable part or adapted into owners accommodation to release the farmhouse section as a large letting 4 bedroom unit for additional income. Most of the dividing walls are partition and easy to remove.
On the first floor there are again numerous options to re-divide the accommodation as the walls are only partition. There are ample original features such as exposed A frames and beams and solid wood flooring.
The lettable parts of the complex consist of two detached stone cottages and a camp site with 10 pitches (6 with electric hook up) and a shower/wash/wc annexe for the campsite. One of the gite cottages is quite large and offers accommodation for up to 8 people with its own patio and garden area and access to the above ground pool. The other cottage is slightly small, can sleep 4 (or more using sofa beds in the lounge) and again has its own garden and patio area with access to the pool. The cottages are fully equipped for immediate letting and this can be included in the sale (subject to negotiation). The owners are prepared to hand over their letting website and any future bookings for the coming season (they will retain any deposits already paid).
The grounds are very peaceful and of a good size but easy to manage. The pool area is enclosed with the above ground pool being ideal for children and by having steps to climb up into it reduces risks for small children accidently falling in - having a pool creates more booking interest. There is also ample parking in the grounds, a driveway in and out with two access points and a children’s play area. The camp site is ideal for either tents, caravans or camping cars and is registered with the caravan club as a site of peace and tranquility. The owners only do minimal advertising for the camp site and the gites and have very good letting seasons - they are currently fully booked for the coming summer season and are certain the business could be expanded considerably depending on how much income owners need to generate. Also in the grounds is a very large covered hangar which is ideal for storage of garden equipment, furniture, boats or caravans, it has lighting, electricity and water available.
The owners are looking to sell quickly hence the low price which can include gite furnishings, accessories and UK satellite TV to main house and both cottages. Therefore it is possible to move in and continue the business the same day and then continue to expand on the income potential.
The property is situated between Rostrenen and Corlay and closest town is St. Nicolas Du Pelem (approx 3.5 miles). St. Nicolas has 4 schools, a post office, supermarket, bakers, garden centre, DIY shop, 2 x fuel stations, Dr's surgery, dentists, bars, restaurants, football club, outdoor heated pool with flumes and surrounded by lovely countryside and beautiful woodland.
The owner’s children (16yrs & 12yrs) have been attending school there for 3 years and are fluent in French and their parents consider they have a much higher level of education than standard education in the UK.
