The site is located next to the roundabout in the hamlet of Brighton with good road communications to the A3058 linking to the A30 and St. Austell. The B3275 provides further access to the South Cornwall coastline.

The village of Summercourt is located 1.5 miles away and provides a primary school, the London Inn public house which is known for good food in the area, and a village shop.

The Business
The present owners have developed the site since 2016 to include building the four detached lodges and converting the stables into two holiday letting cottages to establish a profitable holiday letting business from 2020.

Planning permission was granted in February 2023 from Cornwall Council (reference PA22/08494) for the construction of four additional detached single storey 3-bedroom holiday letting units to expand the business.

The holiday letting business from the three lodges and the two holiday letting cottages produced a turnover of £59,464 in 2021/22 season and £61,606 in the 2022/2023 season. In the 2023/24 season a lower turnover of £31,772 from a limited season. Trading information can be provided to bona fide purchasers.
