THE LOCATION

For many years Bude has been known as one of Cornwall’s most popular family seaside resorts, thanks to its large sandy beach, visitor accommodation and facilities. As a result the town has a brisk tourist trade, but the area known as Bude-Stratton also has a vibrant living and working community of over 18,000 that supports the development and growth of the local economy and makes use of the local shops, cafes, services and restaurants. Ongoing growth in the area includes the Binhamy Road housing development, which by 2023 will have added a further 420 houses. Bude-Stratton lies next to the ‘Atlantic Highway’ A39, which runs to Bideford (25 miles) and Barnstaple (34 miles) to the north, and down to Tintagel (19 miles) and Padstow (35 miles) to the south, and carries a regular bus service linking these coastal towns.

THE SITUATION

The subject property is situated on the street connecting the two main retail streets of Queen Street and Belle Vue, known as Belle Vue Avenue.  The locally well known surf shop Zuma Jay is situated close by.

THE PROPERTY AND CONSTRUCTION

Being a ground floor lock up restaurant premises with a single frontage.  To the front of the premises is a seating area for pre-dinner drinks complete with canopy and grape vine whilst the restaurant offers covers for 18-24.  Internally the premises provides character and cosy surroundings and is serviced by a commercial kitchen which was refurbished in 2020.

THE PROPOSAL

Our clients are inviting offers for the Leasehold interest, with the property available by way of an assignment of the existing 10 year lease, at a current rent of £7,200 per annum.

THE BUSINESS

Our client established the business 5 years ago with the premises having previously been a café.  Now operating 5 evenings per week, 6pm – 11pm, during the summer months and only 2 nights per week November, January and February, it is thought there is scope to extend trading days and hours.  Our client works within the kitchen with 1 or 2 part time members of staff employed dependent on the time of year.  A husband and wife team or partnership may choose to operate with no staffing requirements.  Trading as a licenced bistro turnover for May 21 – Dec 21 was £75,000.  Further accountancy information available upon request.  The business has a 5 star Trip Advisor rating.
