HLL Humberts Leisure, chartered surveyors and specialist leisure business consultants of Mayfair, London, in conjunction with Jackson-Stops & Staff of Bury St Edmunds, have been jointly instructed to offer for sale the Mill Cottage & Badwell Ash Holiday Lodges letting business near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

Mill Cottage & Badwell Ash Holiday Lodges lie on the outskirts of the traditional Suffolk village of Badwell Ash and good communications to regional centres such as Newmarket, Cambridge and Ipswich are provided by the A14 trunk road nearby. The historic cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds, just 10 miles away, offers an excellent and full range of amenities.

The lodges, developed in 2006, combined with a beautifully presented, charming period (17th century) cottage, provide a very special leisure lifestyle business opportunity. In just three years the business has quickly become established with an exceptionally high level of occupancy and repeat custom and an enviable reputation of ‘best in class.’

There are currently four lodges, all spaciously laid out around three landscaped fishing lakes, each with a balcony and a secluded hot tub to one side. Inside there are two bedrooms, a fully fitted bathroom, steam room and large living room. They offer unashamed luxury, peace and tranquility, are graded 4 Star with Gold Award by Visit Britain and the Sunday Telegraph recently featured Badwell Ash in their ‘World’s Best Over Water Holiday Resorts’ article.

There is consent for one more lodge and space for further units, subject to planning. The business already trades profitably and there is clearly room for further income enhancement.

John Mitchell, in charge of the sale at Humberts Leisure‘s London office comments: “Badwell Ash Lodges is an exceptional business opportunity with a dream house to go with it, set in a very special landscape. We expect keen interest in this rare chance to invest in such a top quality leisure enterprise”

HLL Humberts Leisure and Jackson-Stops & Staff are seeking £1.2 million for the freehold of this real gem of a property as a going concern with an inventory of trade fixtures and fittings and site vehicles.
