Owners' Accommodation
A private, spacious lower-ground floor flat with its own separate entrance to the river path and stairway to the ground floor. Includes: kitchen; living room with stone fireplace, bay windows, & door to 3rd bedroom/office; bathroom; two further bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes.

Terrace
A generously sized, sunny, paved terrace overlooking the river, with stunning views up the East Lyn River Valley and down to the sea. In our opinion, the terrace presents a valuable potential additional income stream for any new owner wishing to provide cream teas, drinks, meals or to further exploit and increase the hotel's bar custom. It benefits from year round passing trade as visitors walk the river path directly alongside.

Garden
A cobble-stone paved triangular private garden, with space for sitting out, drying clothes etc.

Parking
East Lyn House benefits from having its own garage parking for eight cars and a further two outside parking spaces on the drive. Within the garage are doors to the boiler/drying rooms, laundry room and beer cellar and to the lockable workshop.

The Business
The business trades under the VAT threshold and therefore operates a seven-month season. The season length is the owners' lifestyle choice and could be extended due to the demand. Income could be easily increased by extending the operational periods; in addition, the excellent location and passing trade mean tea gardens and/or a restaurant could be added. Detailed figures are available on request.
