A rare, income-producing country estate set across 25 acres, The Manor combines a Victorian manor house, purpose-built 300sqm barn and diversified holiday accommodation. The business currently averages c. £700k turnover per year and benefits from a fully licensed bar and multiple indoor/outdoor event spaces suitable for weddings and functions. A biomass heating system attracts confirmed RHI payments of £30,000 pa for the next ten years.
Accommodation and guest product include a grand 1841 manor house (9 bedrooms, six en-suite), four self-contained cottages, and nine luxury woodland cabins set within 14 acres of ancient woodland. Guest amenities feature a 7 x 4m indoor pool with changing facilities, a 10 x 4m solar-heated outdoor pool and parking for approximately 60 cars. The Beacon barn provides flexible events space for 100+ covers, commercial kitchen, CCTV and licensed operation until 1am.
This is an investor-ready operation with clear growth and diversification potential (additional cabins, private hot tubs, expanded outdoor ceremony capacity). Key strengths are the size of the estate, established wedding/restaurant income stream, river frontage, and long-term RHI income.
Material considerations: the estate is a complex, operational hospitality business that requires active management and capital investment for maintenance and guest services. Broadband speeds are very slow, mobile signal average, and legal tenure is listed as unknown — these practical issues affect operation, marketing and modern guest expectations. Period fabric (built 1841) will also require ongoing maintenance.
