The Warkworth House Hotel, a Grade II Star-listed property originally constructed in the 1820s in Northumberland, UK, has been put up for sale.
Specialist property adviser Christie & Co has been appointed to market the property, at an asking price of £1.8m ($2.36m).
The current owners, Sandra Thomas and Theresa Collins, acquired the hotel in 2012 from Mark Worley at Christie & Co and have now decided to sell the property as they move towards retirement.
Thomas said: “We have invested heavily in the hotel since we bought it 12 years ago, both cosmetically and structurally, and we feel that we have created a wonderful boutique hotel with a great reputation and healthy profits.
“The time has come for us to retire and step away from the business, which we do with a heavy heart, but we are hopeful that the new owners will enjoy their time here as much as we have.”
Warkworth House Hotel has 14 en-suite bedrooms, a bar and a restaurant, and is located close to the sea and the Northumberland Coast National Landscape.
