Location
The Mustard Tree occupies a prominent trading location as one enters Carbis Bay, on the outskirts of St Ives, with the parking access of a quiet residential road. St Ives requires little introduction as one of the County’s if not the Country’s foremost holiday destinations, famous for its pretty harbour, numerous beaches, the Tate at St Ives and of course numerous shops and restaurants etc.
The Mustard Tree enjoys visibility from the St Ives Road and yet is situated in an elevated and quiet residential road. Given its elevated position, many of the rooms are afforded far reaching coastal views.
The Property/business
We understand the property dates back to the 1960s when it was purpose built as a guest house. The property sits centrally within mature and well planted gardens and grounds of circa 0.25 to 0.33 of an acre (to be independently verified by interested parties).
The property is presented in excellent order and has been subject to considerable updating and improvement by our clients, during their 12 year tenure.
The business trades all year, with the exception of holidays and is now being sold due to impending retirement plans. We understand the business has very high levels of repeat business from returning customers (in the order of circa 60%) and is run by our clients, with some part-time assistance between April and September, equating to 16 hours per week.
In terms of the trade, the turnover for the year end March 2016 was in excess of £100,000, with a gross profit level of circa 88.7% and which produced an adjusted net profit of in excess of £70,000, which is obviously a significant business. At the time of writing a draft for 2017 is being finalised. Further accounting info9rmation will be made available subsequent to a viewing appointment in the normal manner.
