Lease

Business Location:

This very well positioned cafe, restaurant and B&B is in a perfect setting overlooking Scarborough’s bustling harbour with its sea and glistening sand. The building has a very imposing frontage and sits well below Scarborough’s famous castle. It is slightly set back from the road, allowing for a large outside eating area which is very popular with locals and tourists alike. There is plenty of parking nearby. Scarborough is a well known tourist destination and The Ivy House is in the busy part of the tourist area. It is a thriving town with a population of over 100,000 inhabitants. It is a perfect centre for a holiday with good access links to the rest of Yorkshire as well as being close to Bridlington and Whitby.

Premise Details:

The main entrance is between 2 welcoming and attractive bow windows. This leads directly into 2 bright dining areas with over 80 covers between them. Outside the business to the front are a further 35 covers. In the dining area to the right there is a well stocked bar. Ahead are the stairs to the B&B and the administration office. At the rear left is a kitchen predominantly used for preparing desserts. Upstairs is a much larger, fully equipped kitchen recently fitted with brand new appliances along with a dumb waiter. Everything is maintained to a very high standard. The outside seating area is very popular in summer and attracts a large passing trade. Above are 6 large en-suite bedrooms. 5 overlook the harbour and 1 overlooks the old town. The quality of the furnishings needs to be seen to be appreciated. See: www.theivyhousescarborough.com for a view of the rooms. There is also a separate 3 bedroomed cottage to the rear. This is fitted to a high specification and can be used as either further accommodation or for the owners’ use.
