Summary - MAPLE BANK GUEST HOUSE, MINOR ROAD FROM STANGER COTTAGES TOWARDS THORNTHWAITE CA12 5RY
7 bed 1 bath Detached
Established B&B with panoramic mountain views and large private gardens.
Seven individually styled en suite letting bedrooms
An imposing double-fronted Edwardian property set on the fringe of Braithwaite, this established guest house combines strong trading performance with substantial scope for future returns. The house offers seven individually styled en suite letting rooms plus a one/two-bedroom owner’s apartment, and currently generates a reported net turnover of £148,322 from B&B trading alone. The plot is very large, with manicured front gardens, paddocks to the rear and wide views across to Skiddaw and Latrigg.
Built in 1907, the property retains many period features and high ceilings that contribute to its character and guest appeal. Its situation within the Lake District National Park and proximity to Keswick make it attractive to holiday and outdoors-focused visitors, supported by local amenities and good nearby schools. Freehold tenure and off-street parking add practical value for continued B&B use or conversion to a luxury private residence.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building’s age means ongoing maintenance and possible updating are likely, and current digital connectivity is limited (slow broadband, average mobile signal), which may affect marketing and remote working guests. Flood risk is low, crime is average, and the village setting is peaceful but less urban for commuter buyers.
For an investor or operator wanting a ready-made trading business with character and scenic appeal, this property offers proven income and clear potential to enhance rates and occupancy with modest modernisation. For a purchaser seeking a private home, the size, views and gardens provide flexible living space with scope for improvement.
