Wildsmith Hotels has announced that its Hipping Hall hotel in Lancashire has been listed for sale with an asking price of £3m.
The luxury accommodation comprises 15 guest rooms spread over three buildings, including the main house, cottage and recently completed stable rooms.
Hipping Hall also offers a fine dining restaurant that offers an impressive menu made from seasonal and locally sourced ingredients.
The current owner, Andrew Wildsmith, purchased Hipping Hall in 2005 and, after nearly 20 years of trading, closed the business on 24 July.
Wildsmith has decided to sell Hipping Hall to focus on his Michelin Star restaurant, The Forest Side.
Wildsmith said: “It has been an absolute pleasure bringing guests to this beautiful part of the world over the last two decades and providing them with first-class hospitality. Hipping Hall still holds so much potential, and I look forward to seeing what’s next for this magnificent building.”
Joel Osbourne, broker at Christie and Co which is handling the sale, added: “This is a fantastic opportunity for a new owner to acquire a unique property in an idyllic setting, with the potential to take the current business forward or introduce a new concept. There is also a parcel of land, available by separate negotiation, which offers scope for development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.”
