The hotel is centrally situated in Warkworth, one of the county’s prime coastal towns, famous for its magnificent medieval castle which dominates the skyline. The vibrant town is highly popular with tourists, featuring a good variety of shops and cafes, and being just a short walk to the sea and the stunning Northumberland Coast National Landscape.
Originally built in the 1820s, the Grade II Star listed hotel features 14 en-suite bedrooms as well as a bar, restaurant and breakfasting room. Additionally, there is a charming two-bedroom cottage on site which would be ideal as owners accommodation or as additional letting income. There is an abundance of character and period charm in throughout the historic property, including the staircase which originates from Brandenburg House in London.
The owners, Sandra Thomas and Theresa Collins, purchased the hotel from Mark Worley at Christie & Co back in 2012, and they are now selling as they plan to retire.
Sandra comments “We have invested heavily in the hotel since we bought it 12 years ago, both cosmetically and structurally, and we feel that we have created a wonderful boutique hotel with a great reputation and healthy profits. The time has come for us to retire and step away from the business, which we do with a heavy heart, but we are hopeful that the new owners will enjoy their time here as much as we have.”
Mark Worley, Hotel Director at Christie & Co, comments “Having helped Sandy and Terry buy the hotel all those years ago, and having kept in touch ever since, it is great for me to be able to help them achieve their next step. Hotels and hospitality businesses in Northumberland and in particular, along the coast, are in great demand and we are sure that there will be a good level of interest.”
The Warkworth House Hotel is on the market with an asking price £1,800,000.
