Summary - 8, ATHERLEY ROAD PO37 7AT
1 bed 1 bath Guest House
Turnkey seaside B&B near station and beach, ready for new owners to grow trade.
Freehold seven en‑suite letting rooms plus separate 2/3‑bed owners’ accommodation
Ryedale is a rare freehold guest house in central Shanklin offered as a turnkey business. The property comprises seven en‑suite letting rooms plus separate 2/3‑bed owners’ accommodation, arranged over multiple floors, with a south-facing garden and generous overall floorspace (circa 2,949 sq ft). It is well presented and currently trades seasonally between Easter and October, with existing listings on major booking sites and a turnover just under the VAT threshold.
The location is a key asset: an easy walk to the train station, town centre, esplanade and sandy beaches, making it attractive to tourists and short‑break visitors. Practical benefits include freehold tenure, a decent plot, low Council Tax (Band A) and a nearby carpark that provides guest parking permits; mobile signal is excellent for bookings and guest communication.
Considerations are straightforward and important. The business is seasonal with scope to extend trading outside peak months; the area has above‑average crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect operating costs and insurance. Rates payable are estimated at around £3,000. Broadband speeds are average, so owners relying on heavy streaming or remote work should test connections.
Overall, the property suits an operator seeking a turn‑key seaside guest house with immediate income and room to grow revenue, or an investor wanting a holiday‑let asset with strong location credentials. The price includes fixtures, fittings, goodwill and stock, allowing a rapid handover for new owners.
