Property information

The complex currently consists of 16 quality 3 bedroom cottages, owners farmhouse, bar and restaurant with adjoining function room, fitness facility including 2 squash courts, gymnasium, lounge and games area, treatment room and ladies and gents locker and changing rooms, 2 Large swimming pools, garden, mini tennis, car parking and additional 3 hectares of land with planning to extend complex with chalets or mobile homes. The owners farmhouse consists of on the ground floor an entrance hall with impressive galleried library and staircase, large drawing room with original Charentaise open fireplace, cloakroom, office, utility room, children’s room and large kitchen dining room, with original bread oven still in place. Upstairs is a large master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and 2 more double bedrooms with a shared bathroom. Outside is a beautiful private walled garden with veranda and fish pond. The complex itself is completely bounded by stone walls and buildings making this a very safe environment for all the family, the 16 cottages are very tastefully decorated creating a good quality holiday ambience for the clients each cottage also has its own terrace and BBQ area with direct access to one of the 2 swimming pools. Plenty of space has been provided for relaxation around the complex, so whilst the kids playing tennis the adults can just chill out with a glass of wine. The premises have the benefit of a category 3 Liquor Licence which allows the sale of any liquor off sales or with a restaurant meal, and drinks with a proof of up to 18% to anyone seven days a week. The restaurant during high season is open all day serving drinks and a good quality food menu. Annual turnover produces around 200000 euros per year, and with no staff overheads this makes this project a very viable business for a family team. The business has currently been trading under the current owners since 1993 , who have now decided it is time to retire, 40% of the annual trade is repeat business, so anyone taking over will be guaranteed an income on there first year of trading. The adjoining land of 3 hectares has just been classified as AUXT this is the UK equivalent of outline planning, the permission is granting 45 new dwellings whether houses, chalets or mobile homes permanent or holiday, a scale plan has been built with 45 bungalows being built which could generate a huge income in the future as sales or rentals the choice is yours. This is a fabulous complex that the current owners really feel they cannot exploit any further after 15 years of hard work and now want to hand the reigns to someone younger that can exploit this potential goldmine to its maximum. The price below is inclusive of agents fees and is for the purchase of the property and its land, it does not include the business( fond de commerce). In order to buy this property the cost would be an additional 300000 euros + agency fees.
