Characterful investment near the Lake District and local amenities.
Prominent main-road position into town
A substantial Georgian stone hotel occupying a prominent main-road position into Alston, this freehold property combines character features with recent practical upgrades. Nine letting bedrooms are described as en suite, plus a comfortable owner’s apartment on the top floor, making the property ready for continued trading or hands-on investment.
The owners have renewed key infrastructure: a new central heating boiler and zoned heating controls improve efficiency across the building, and most letting rooms have been upgraded. The property sits on a very large plot close to the Lake District National Park, offering appeal to tourists and steady seasonal trade in a market town with good local amenities and low crime.
There are a few material points to note before viewing. External walls are original sandstone/limestone and listed as having no insulation (assumed); glazing type is undefined, which may affect energy performance. Data also records a single general bathroom despite the listing of nine en suite rooms, so prospective buyers should confirm the current room and bathroom layout.
This property suits an investor or operator seeking a character hotel with immediate trading potential, or a buyer considering sympathetic conversion. Excellent mobile signal and mains gas heating are practical advantages, while average broadband and potential heritage constraints are factors to factor into future plans.
