Inverness B&B on A82 that shares name with beautiful Hebridean beach of Bosta on Great Bernera goes on market with Highland estate agency ASG Commercial
A successful Inverness bed-and-breakfast named after one of the Hebrides’ most beautiful beaches has gone on the market.
Bosta Bed-and-Breakfast, which shares its moniker with the picturesque sands of the same name on Great Bernera, could be yours for offers over £445,000.
A seven-bedroom hotel with capacity for up to 15 guests, it is located on Glenurquhart Road on the key A82 trunk road.
Described by estate agency ASG Commercial as “a profitable business with opportunity for further development” the B&B has entered the market because the owners have decided to retire from the hospitality trade.
“Bosta Bed and Breakfast is an attractive late-Victorian property dating from around 1900,” said ASG Commercial. “This property has a substantial footprint and should be considered as a must-view option for anyone wishing to own a large property with strong business potential in a popular area of Inverness.
“Presented in excellent condition this property offers new owners the opportunity to develop a sound trading entity whilst having a spacious home. The property offers a mix of accommodation; seven bedrooms, seven bath / shower rooms, three lounges / dining room as well as a log cabin in the garden.
“All letting accommodation is presented to a good level although new owners may wish to stamp their own personality on the owners’ accommodation. This property offers a superb home and income earning proposition in an outstanding location.”
They continued: “The present owners purchased Bosta in 2019 and have enjoyed their time operating the business. However, it is their desire to retire from hospitality and pursue a new venture that brings this opportunity to the market.”
ASG added that the three bedrooms on the ground floor are currently used by the owners themselves, with only the four on the first floor let out to guests, but the property “is extremely flexible and could be reconfigured to the needs of new owners”. Similarly, the business currently only operates during the main tourist season from April to October, but this is by the “owner’s choice” and could easily operate all year round if wished.
“Whilst trading seasonally, the business enjoys a good level of profits whilst extending the operating period would offer the opportunity to build on that solid foundation,” said ASG.
The bed-and-breakfast also has a log cabin in the garden containing a king-size bed, open plan living/dining area with a small kitchen, and also a separate shower room.
The site also offers off-road parking plus public parking close-by.
