Character hotel with lake for sale in Gloucester

This property is marketed by:
Colliers

Description:

Corse Lawn House Hotel is the very epitome of the English country house hotel. Its elegant buildings and extensive grounds suit the role perfectly but for many years the property was a coaching inn and would suit a similar use to that again too. The setting and approach are lovely, a pretty road with wide verges is the approach and access is either side of a lovely ornamental lake that sets the buildings beautifully. On arrival there is a timeless appeal, and the hotel has lots of interesting spaces for dining, drinking or simply relaxing and 18 large letting bedrooms to stay in as well. Locationally there is an awful lot to commend this particular part of Gloucestershire too.

Location:

Situated just west of the M5 the hotel is easy to reach from all directions with Bristol, Swindon and Birmingham all within an hours drive and Cardiff only just outside that. There is easy access to the honey-coloured stone villages of the Cotswolds, the charm and drama of The Forest of Dean and Wye Valley and the hotel is just south of the Malvern Hills too. As well as all the many tourist destinations in easy reach there is business trade available too as the hotel is very well placed to attract custom from the many commercial businesses in Tewkesbury, Gloucester and Cheltenham.

Property:

Corse Lawn House is understood to date from the mid 1700’s so is early Georgian in origin, very much in the Queen Anne style, with later extensions. It is constructed traditionally, of brick with a pitched tile covered main roof. The house is a lovely building, with the symmetry the period celebrated much in evidence and the main elevation enhanced by its setting behind a small ornamental lake.

Public Area:

The majority of the public rooms are in the original Georgian house so have height and elegance. Entrance Reception Hall with an elegant Lounge adjacent, and a further lounge convenient for the Bistro Restaurant which seats around 40, close to which is a charming Bar. The Restaurant seats approximately 40 covers and has doors opening onto a patio at the rear of the hotel. Further public rooms are a Garden Room often used for function again seating around 40 and a private dining/meeting room for about 12.
