AN “iconic” Victorian hotel in a village named one of the best places to live in Scotland has been put on the market.
The Royal An Lochan Hotel in Tighnabruaich is being offered for sale by property agents Graham and Sibbald on behalf of liquidators at the Xeinadin group.
The 11-room hotel, which is not currently trading, is located on the banks of the Kyles of Bute and had attracted “large crowds all year round”, the property agents said.
A self-contained charming 3-bedroom house for owners accommodation and a two-bedroom staff flat are also included in the sale.
Peter Seymour, the director of Graham and Sibbald’s hotel and leisure department, said: “We were delighted to bring to the market the Royal An Lochan Hotel.
“This outstanding hotel has proven itself to be a key player in Tighnabruaich attracting large crowds all year round.
“We feel this is a fantastic business opportunity for the right buyer to make the most of the already impressive building creating a boutique style destination hotel.”
The agents’ listing for the hotel states: “Situated on a prominent plot on the shorefront, the hotel is a well-known institution serving residents and tourists alike.
“This hotel is a true gem offering impressive views and charming architecture.
“The property is appealing to a range of customers whether you want to relax in the lounge next to the fire, enjoy dinner with a view over the bay in the restaurant or a cold pint in the historic shinty bar.”
It adds: “The property offers a great business opportunity for the right buyer to build upon the already stellar reputation and frequent return guests and local trade. The hotel is currently closed and being sold as seen by the liquidators.”
Graham and Sibbald are inviting offers around £495,000 for the property.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
