House For Sale in Lee Road, Lynton, Devon
Unique opportunity to purchase a detached cottage with 5 bedrooms (3 en-suite), large lounge, guest bathroom, commercial kitchen, tea room, servery and lawned tea garden, car park and stores, all located in the infamous Valley Of Rocks. EPC Rating C.
LOCATION
Surrounded by dramatic scenery and breath-taking views. Immersed into the landscape, in a dramatic Exmoor Valley setting that follows the contours of coast, next to a public car park on one side and on the other side is probably one of the most picturesque village cricket pitches in the United Kingdom. This unique property nestles into the iconic Valley Of Rocks only a short one mile walk from Lynton town centre. Well known for dramatic coastal scenery and footpaths that meander high above cliffs that fall into the sea this has to be one of the greatest tourist spots in the South West. The location secures a guaranteed trade for the tea room and tea garden.
THE PROPERTY
Acquired by the owners over 20 years ago this property now comes onto the market due to impending retirement. The property was a cottage but has been developed into a character 5 bedroom owners cottage with two en-suites plus a guest bathroom as well as the tea room, commercial kitchen, preparation room and reception servery.
The lounge is located upstairs and enjoys the scenery of the surrounding countryside. The cottage is served by the well-equipped commercial kitchen. The lawned enclosed tea garden has 18 picnic tables with ample seating outside. The dry stone walling acts as a wind break with the trees within the garden bent to reflect the wind's direction and offering some shade from the summer sun, all is in keeping with the rocky scenery of the valley. The cottage has oil fired radiator central heating and enjoys views to the west where the setting sunsets can be enjoyed and to the east views of the quintessential English cricket games can be seen. There is an enclosed yard, store plus access to rear parking for the owner.
THE BUSINESS
Now opening hours to suit the owner mainly opens sunny days and dry days, this well-known tea room, tea garden and restaurant which attracts walkers and tourists throughout the year. The owner now opens on a seasonal basis from choice. Details of the high 6 figure turnover will be made available to those interested parties who have inspected the premises with the owner's permission.
