The Heathmount Hotel, Kingsmills Road, Inverness, IV2 3JU
The Hotel + Leisure division of UK Property Firm Graham + Sibbald are delighted to bring to the market The Heathmount Hotel, Inverness.
The Heathmount Hotel is an outstanding eight-bedroom boutique hotel with a roaring F&B business. Located on a prominent plot in Inverness’ salubrious West end, the Heathmount is a well-known institution serving residents and tourist alike. This hotel is a true gem offering a charming turn-key operation, with an excellent range of drinks, warm hearty pub grub and eight outstanding boutique en-suite bedrooms. The property also benefits from an extensive outside terrace with integrated heaters, firepits and an outdoor tv.
The Heathmount benefits two large busy bars, a restaurant, private dining area and eight ensuite bedrooms, each unique with bespoke high-end design. Room occupancy sits at over 90% and the hotel commands a premium during the ever extending Inverness season, now stretching from March to October.
The hotel boasts a warm inviting atmosphere which seamlessly blend traditional features with modern fixtures and fitting, providing all clientele with a sense of relaxed sophistication and the best of Highland Hospitality.
The property has benefited significant investment over the past few years, including a new state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, room upgrades and new carpeting throughout.
The Heathmount offers a great business opportunity for the right buyer to build upon the already stellar reputation and frequent return guests. It is evident the current owner has poured love into the property and as retirement nears, she has left behind an outstanding business and her truly impressive eye for interior design.
The Highlands continue to be a burgeoning tourist area, attracting greater numbers of visitors annual, currently room occupancy in the highlands sits at circa 70% for 2023.
Peter Seymour, a Director with Graham + Sibbald, commented, “We were delighted to bring to the market the Heathmount Hotel. This outstanding hotel has proven itself to be a key player in the Inverness market attracting large crowds all year round. It is regarded as one of the cities key leisure institutions and its reputation is well known. The seller has decided now is the time to retire from the trade and presents a very well presented and highly profitable business for the next owner enjoy.”
Fiona Newton, owner of The Heathmount Hotel, said: “This is a bittersweet announcement. I have owned and operated The Heathmount Hotel for over thirty-years and can honestly say it is so much more than a pub, hotel and restaurant. Our loyal staff and customer base make The Heathmount a true community hub and I will miss being at the centre of it. However, I believe it is time for a new generation to takeover and build on my success so I can spend more time with my grandchildren.”
Graham + Sibbald are inviting offers in the region of “£1,400,000” for the freehold interest.
