Set in a dramatic Lake District valley, New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel is a freehold 3-star operation with genuine scale — circa 8 acres of site including formal lawns, grazing hillside and woodland. The business offers 23 individually styled en-suite letting bedrooms, a 2-bedroom manager’s flat with separate access, a detached staff chalet and strong public areas: residents’ lounge, popular Walkers’ Bar and a 50-cover restaurant. The layout provides two separate entrances so guests can access bedrooms without passing through the bar and restaurant.
For an investor or hospitality operator, the property’s footprint and mix of accommodation create multiple income streams: B&B letting rooms, bar trade from passing walkers, group dining and outdoor seating for large seasonal covers. Practical assets include a large commercial kitchen, stores, timber workshop, stone store and an on-site water treatment system. There is parking for at least 20 vehicles and extensive picnic-style outdoor seating for around 100 guests.
Material constraints are straightforward and important: the site is in a National Park so alterations will be subject to planning controls and conservation considerations. Connectivity is poor — no mobile signal on site and very slow broadband — which may affect modern guest expectations and operational systems. A portion of the land is grazed by a third party and the private sewerage plant and water treatment equipment are on-site and will require ongoing maintenance and compliance.
This is a turnkey country-hotel with strong character, substantial landholding and clear potential to increase turnover from events, group bookings and targeted marketing. Buyers should budget for connectivity upgrades, ongoing systems maintenance and any National Park consent for material changes, while benefiting from an established trading location in an affluent, low-crime rural area.
