Reluctantly the business is now being offered for sale so that our clients can enjoy a well deserved retirement.
Since ownership they have refurbished, redecorated and continually invested in new equipment along with fixtures and fittings which are all bought and paid for and included with in the sale price which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time.
