This boutique accommodation business operates in the discerning traveller segment of the industry with an established high profile and sound reputation for quality hospitality with both domestic and international travellers.

Set in approximately 6,500 square metres of established manicured & authentic heritage gardens, with direct beach access, and close to shops and restaurants in Cowes, the property offers significant potential for growth in the business operations and in future capital growth.

Mature established relationships with international travel operators, and clientele associated with the Phillip Island motor racing circuit, together with a high profile in the boutique accommodation market segment over the past 12 years, provide a profitable and sound base business with potential to grow as the current owners operate the business for 8 months of the year only. There is potential to further develop the current accommodation offerings on vacant land included within in the property’s boundaries.

The business and property is offered as a going concern in one package, but actually has 6 separate land titles (all with road frontage) offering complete flexibility for further development or subdivision in future.
