An Eden Valley hotel is on the market for £1.295 million.
Edenhall Country House Hotel, near Penrith, is being sold as owners Paula and Wayne Williams retire.
The couple have operated the hotel since 2008.
Paula said: “When we bought Edenhall, we were new to the hotel business and wanted a successful, thriving business at the heart of the village community.
“We worked hard to create a business where everyone feels welcome, guests return regularly, locals support us, and in turn we have a great reputation and a thriving business.
“Having made this our home for the last 17 years, the time has come for us to retire and step away from the business, but we will be sad to leave.
“We have been privileged to have met wonderful guests over the years, and we do hope that the new owners will enjoy their time here as much as we have.”
The hotel has 25 en suite guest bedrooms, bar, restaurant, function room and conservatory.
There is a two-bedroom owners’ apartment and a three-bedroom duplex apartment which sleeps up to seven people and can be let as self-contained, self-catering accommodation.
Edenhall Country House Hotel is being sold by Christie & Co.
Agent Graham Wilkinson said: “I was so impressed when I met Paula and Wayne. This is a great business that meets the needs of so many guests, from leisure visitors to business stays, weddings and functions, and one that is very much part of local life in the area.
“Businesses that offer a range of income streams, a great location and a strong reputation are always much sought after and as such we anticipate a good level of interest.”
