Camilla House, 1 Regent Terrace, Penzance, Cornwall, TR18 4DW Built in the early 18s, Camilla House started life as a private residence and became a guest house in 1949. It is now a charming and beautifully presented mainly bed and breakfast operation, set in an attractive terrace with sea views across Mounts Bay. Camilla House is an easily run operation trading all year round, which provides the owners with an enviable lifestyle and is equally suited to either first time entrants into the industry or those seeking to downsize. Appealing to both tourists and commercial guests, Penzance is undeniably one of Cornwall s most attractive towns both in terms of its architecture and position, being the commercial centre for the Lands End peninsula and served by a direct main line rail service to London Paddington. For tourists there is much to see and do with Lands End less than fifteen minutes away, the famous open air Minack Theatre surrounded by majestic cliffs and crystal clear seas, numerous historic fishing ports, sub-tropical vegetation and a wealth of maritime and industrial heritage, to name but a few. Last, but not least, Penzance is the gateway to the Scilly Isles via the ferry or the helicopter. The owners purchased the business in and have undertaken extensive refurbishment including rewiring, re-plumbing, fitting a new kitchen, having the car park laid and decorating throughout. They completely re-modelled and restyled with quality fittings and furniture to a first class standard and have maintained their position attracting touring visitors to the area, which has so much to offer. This then is a rare opportunity to purchase a superb business that provides an excellent income combined with a wonderful lifestyle in an elegant and substantial property.
