Situated in the heart of Boscastle – North Cornwall’s picture postcard fishing village – this attractive character property is more than just walls and a roof; it’s a way of life. A flourishing guest house, popular tea room, peaceful garden, and an idyllic setting combine to create one of the most distinctive and flexible hospitality businesses on the Cornish coast.
The character of this cozy traditional cottage-style home has been preserved while integrating modern updates by the current owners. It currently functions as a 4-bedroom guesthouse/tea house and licensed tea room with a beautiful, landscaped tea garden and private living space on the 2nd floor.
But get this – it’s designed to be utilized as a complete transformation; either extend the tea room and garden service or revert it back to all six rooms of a stunning family residence. The choice is yours.
Currently, the business is operated by a dedicated husband and wife partnership and has traded for the last 8 years. In that time, it has built up a solid £155,000 turnover (9 months opening hours only 11 am – 3:30 pm), of which £86,978 is from tea room sales. Clearly, this is heaven for ‘lifestyle’ potential and a gold mine for commercial tea room operators.
The tea room is a popular haunt, offering tea served by the jug and friendly Cornish fare. Consider homemade scones, clotted cream, crab sandwiches, some vegan treats, and lovely-aroma coffees — all served in a garden oasis shielded from the coast’s winds by clever windbreaks and patio heaters.
Yet, the real opportunity? Evening service. Early breakfasts. Extended seasonality. The demand is out there — waiting for the right buyer to release it.
Picture owning a slice of Cornwall where the myths of King Arthur rub elbows with dramatic, weather-beaten cliffs, cobbled tracks, and historic harbors. Situated just minutes from Tintagel and next to the South West Coast path, the location benefits from year-round footfall from walkers, day-trippers, as well as holidaymakers wanting to escape to the real Cornish experience.
If you can’t wait to stay as close as possible to Camel Winery, you have a few good options to choose from, including Boscastle House and Bridge House B&B, both of which are already official haunts known for their cozy accommodations and high-scoring tea experiences. This property has the same potential — with one stellar central location to outshine even them.
This isn’t just a business; it’s a way of life that’s ingrained into the heart of one of Cornwall’s most loved destinations. An opportunity for rare restoration. Whether a home for those in hospitality, an entrepreneur wanting ‘the next thing,’ or the opportunity to have a home with income potential in a dream location, this is as rare as it gets.
