SALE BY ONLINE AUCTION 30TH MAY 2024 AT 9.00AM.
Online Property Auctions Scotland are delighted to present this amazing business opportunity.

*PRE AUCTION OFFERS ARE WELCOME ON THIS PROPERTY*
Currently trading as Bed and Breakfast premises.
The premises comprise.
7 letting rooms (all ensuite)
3 bed flat on upper level (currently unused)
Guest lounge
Function suite with bar
Dining room
Kitchen
Additional ensuite letting room (currently unused)
Reception area
2 bed owner's accommodation with vast unused attic space.

The business is currently run to suit the current owners who operate the business at a limited capacity with good profit margins. The opportunity to increase this is massive.
Currently maintained to an exceptionally high standard throughout with well-presented letting rooms.

Set just off the main A77 route to Glasgow, the premises are set within approximately 1.3 acres of well-maintained grounds.

The business has been operated by the current owners for around 20 years. The sale is brought on by their wish to relocate and retire.
There is massive scope to extend and enhance this business through numerous options.
The number of letting rooms could be extended by utilising the vacant apartment space.
There is scope to extend the premises to the side to add further capacity.
Glamping pods / chalets could be added within the substantial surrounding grounds.
The dining room could be utilised to cater for lunch / dining / takeaway trade.
The function suite and bar area (25m x 8m) could be used for a number of purposes.
Due to the high volume of passing trade the provision of snacks / tea / coffee via a roadside cabin would also add value with additional outdoor seating areas.

The current owners have been happy running the business on a very limited basis which has suited their work / life balance. Any motivated new owner would be able to substantially increase trade and add value to the business along with increased income.
The premises have previously been used as a full hotel, nightclub and tea rooms.

Located on the edge of Cairnryan the premises are perfectly located to serve the 2 ferry ports.
P&O ferry terminal to Larne is located within 1 mile.
Stena ferry terminal to Belfast is located within 4 miles.
Both ferry operators run 6 sailings each within a 24 hour period. This creates immediate demand for travellers seeking overnight accommodation before sailing.
Cairnryan to Belfast is the busiest domestic short sea crossing in the UK with circa 1.3 million passengers in 2023.
There is a shortage of food and drink providers in Cairnryan itself and this could be very lucrative for the new owners.

The town of Stranraer is located at around 6 miles.
Within Stranraer you will find a full range of shops, supermarkets, bars and restaurants. Located 87 miles Southwest of Glasgow and 52 miles of Ayr. Population of circa 13,000. The area is noted for fishing, farming and tourism.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
