Searching for a property that could be run as a business? Take a look at Celtic Firs character property that includes semi-detached as well as detached caravan holiday let options. Half of the property was formerly run as a tea shop and B&B. The property has since been converted fully to accommodation as a holiday let business for 6 months of the year.
The property truly does hold a lot of character with its ceiling beams, exposed stone, wood floors, and wood burning stove. You could let the full property as the previous owners did (now looking to retire), or renovate additional space in the crofters cottage to live or rent.
Previous guests praised the property for its excellent location, proximity to the Orkney ferry, and the private and quiet garden. If you are seeking to purchase a property with a business in place, then Celtic Firs may be for you, with planned bookings already in 2023.
From the Yvonne Fitzgerald Listing:
Celtic Firs has been trading successfully for over twenty seven years, formerly as a tearoom and now as a holiday business. Due to the current owners wishing to retire they have now reluctantly placed the business on the market for sale. Situated in a woodland setting, this business comprises of a stone built semi detached holiday cottage, which has an open plan lounge/kitchen, two bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en suite shower room. Adjoining the cottage is another semi detached character cottage, which when renovated could provide owner accommodation. There are also two caravans which have wooden cladding which generate a good rental income. The third caravan which could be used for further letting is also included in the sale. At present the owners let all three rental properties out for six months of the year, however there is scope to increase the income by trading all year round, and also renovating the stone built garage/toilet block into further holiday accommodation.
