      Description
      The sale of Temple View Hotel presents a superb opportunity for new or experienced owners to commence a new business venture in the Outer Hebrides. Currently a couple-owned and managed hotel, the business operates year-round but with majority of trading during the summer period.

      This spacious hotel offers both guests and owners a high standard of accommodation. The 10 en-suite letting bedrooms are all individually finished to a beautiful standard. The hotel has been recently upgraded to provide modern and stylish accommodation throughout. The opportunity to relax in a comfortable outside space makes the most of the scenic surroundings. The hotel trades very profitabily on an easy-to-run operating model; further accounting information is available from the selling agent upon request.

      Reason for Sale
      The business has been reluctantly placed on the market for the owners to pursue other business interests in North Uist.
