Successful Holiday Rental Business (Owner's House, 5 Gîtes and Campsite) on 3.5 Hectares

Property Description

Summary
This property used to be a working farm that was associated to a small neighbouring chateau. Since 2008 it has gradually been developed to provide a successful small business having 4 rental studio apartments, a 2 bedroom gîte and a campsite currently with 12 large emplacements. Caravan storage is also provided which helps to boost the camping business receipts.

The property comprises: the main building (a large longère) which includes the 4 studios and the owner's apartment, a detached barn with the attached gîte on one side and on the other side a new, well-equipped toilet/shower block (38 m²) for the campsite. And finally, there is an old detached farmhouse (approx. 100 m²) that is in need of full renovation and possible development.

All properties are in good condition. Extensive renovation work has been completed over recent years to the various rental properties. There is a great deal of scope for further development and expansion, for which permission has been granted.

On the 35,365 m² terrain we also see a large duck and fish pond and an above ground round splash pool of approximately 5 metres diameter.
The total habitable surface is about 270 m², excluding the first floor of the main building (another 158 m²), which is now empty and ready for further development.

The owners have a website with an online reservation system which is very efficient. This can be handed over and taken on by purchasers. Also, the owners would be willing to provide support for a couple of weeks if required.

This is a successful and stable business. Each year a high percentage of the turnover (65-70%) is from returning visitors, with excellent returns received on storage of caravans.
Exact details on turnover etc. will be made available to prospective buyers.
