Location
Kilbol Country House Hotel is situated in the Polmassick Valley, bordering the River Luney to the South. This attractive desirable valley is close to the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the fishing port of Mevagissey. The Cathedral City of Truro is a short distance away with all the amenities of a small City, as is the town of St Austell. Other attractions include the Eden Project and numerous beaches and coves, on the South Cornish Coast.
The Property/business
We are advised part of the original building dates back to the 16th Century, once forming part of the Mount Edgecumbe Estate. In 1996 a new wing of the property was added providing further good quality letting rooms and a 2 storey 2 bedroomed self-contained holiday cottage.
We are advised the business has been in our client tenure since 1992 and historic trading information showed sales in the region of £165,000. More latterly our clients have chosen to trade below the VAT threshold as a lifestyle choice and we are advised the Accounts for the most recent year (March 2014) showed sales of £89,608, with a gross profit of 93% and an adjusted net profit of c. £38,000. Further information regarding the business can be obtained via our clients website, www.kilbol-hotel.co.uk
