The Home Country House Hotel - Price Reduced

Written by Theresa Tyack Thursday, 03 December 2009 12:54

We have been instructed to reduce the Guide Price of The Home Country House Hotel located in the south west of Cornwall close to the sailing resort of Falmouth, the much favoured village of Mawnan Smith and the beautiful Helford River has come to the market. The property was built in 1872 by local benefactors, the Fox family, who lived on the neighbouring Penjerrick Estate. “The Home” was used as a convalescent home until 1919 since when it has had a variety of uses until acquired by the vendors in 1962, who ever since have been trading as a traditional and popular country house hotel.

The long established and well presented country house hotel offers 18 guest bedrooms together with public rooms which include a lounge and a 32 cover dining room. Eleven of the bedrooms are contained within the main house with the remainder housed within the immediately adjacent old coach house premises. ‘The Home’ is approached by a fine driveway and provides a well stocked garden in this part of Cornwall known for its’ excellent gardens such as Glendurgan and Trebah. There is excellent parking provision.

This business is being marketed after 42 years of ownership because of well earned retirement plans and trading figures will be readily made available to bona-fide applicants. The hotel currently trades from April through to September but opportunity may exist to both extend the season and also to provide a licensed restaurant facility over the winter months.

Offers are now invited off a freehold guide price of £850,000 SAV.

Richard Gilbert of our Hotel, Licensed & Leisure Department comments, ‘It is not often that a delightful traditional country house hotel as ‘The Home’ comes to the market in such a highly favoured part of Cornwall as the Falmouth/Helford area and now that the economy looks to have turned the corner, the Guide Price has been reduced to encourage an early disposal. I thoroughly recommend a viewing of this business in the first instance".
