A Rare Find in a Park as Big as the Nation

Situated in the picturesque village of Betws-y-Coed, the Gateway to Snowdonia, this highly reviewed guest house has been available for the first time in over 30 years (October 2019). Set amid lush landscapes of Snowdonia National Park, it is logistically accessible from higher populated areas of the UK yet located in an environment where few are permitted to develop. This well-established and extremely successful business offers an opportunity to own and run a high-quality hospitality business in one of the UK’s most protected and picturesque destinations.

With current trading restricted to just 8.5 months, the Guest House still achieves an impressive annual turnover of between £100,000 to £200,000, with plenty of scope to develop this further through the ability to trade all year round. This is a full “turn-key” business, well maintained and presented, ready to be taken over as is.
