A well-established hotel on the Isle of Lewis has come onto the market via Bruce & Co.
The Doune Braes Hotel features 15 en-suite letting rooms, and sits amongst the ‘spectacular surroundings’ of the island’s western side, including its own lochan for trout fishing.
The hotel is said to enjoy much repeat business due to its scenic location and ‘excellent’ reputation with tourists, businesspeople, and walkers, and indeed within the local community.
Reportedly well-maintained throughout, the hotel features a main foyer, reception, spacious lounge, dining room, and cocktail bar. Guests can enjoy meals made with local produce and a wide selection of beverages, including malt whiskies.
The letting rooms are a mix of double, twin, family, and single rooms, all en-suite and well presented. Additionally, the hotel includes owner’s accommodation with a large double bedroom, en-suite, lounge, and kitchen.
The Isle of Lewis is the most northerly of the Hebrides, with numerous historical sites, unspoilt sandy beaches, and countless fishing spots.
Travel to the island is by air or sea, with daily ferry services operating between the mainland and the surrounding islands. The island airport, which is located approx. three miles east of Stornoway, the main town, offers daily flights to Inverness, Aberdeen, Glasgow, and Edinburgh airports.
Bruce & Co described the sale of The Doune Braes Hotel as a ‘rare opportunity to purchase a high-quality, beautifully presented Isle of Lewis hotel’, which is already trading successfully but has potential for expansion of the business.
The property is being offered on a freehold basis for £475,000.
