For Sale: Established B&B, Restaurant & Mini Campsite with Growth Potential. Lalizolle, Allier (03)
In the green heart of the Auvergne, near Lalizolle (Allier), this fully equipped bed and breakfast with five guest rooms, restaurant facilities, six camping pitches and spacious private living accommodation is offered for sale. An attractive opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to take over an established tourism business in France and develop it further.
The business has a history spanning more than 20 years. Originally operated as a hotel with a restaurant and bar, it once achieved an annual turnover of almost €100,000.
Over the past three years, annual turnover has been approximately €40,000 excluding VAT. This decrease is mainly due to the current owners gradually scaling back their business activities.
An established business with growth opportunities
All five guest rooms have private bathroom facilities, with one room located on the ground floor. The current room rate is €82 per night, and half-board packages are also available.
The business operates throughout the year, with average occupancy rates of 60–75% in summer and 20–40% in winter. Bookings are made through platforms including Booking.com.
One of the property's main advantages is its existing restaurant infrastructure. The building features a restaurant area with terrace, a bar with a French Licence IV alcohol licence, a professional kitchen and a separate dishwashing area.
Reopening the restaurant to local residents and tourists offers an attractive opportunity to increase turnover.
There are also six camping pitches, each equipped with a 10-amp electrical connection. These are currently hardly used commercially and therefore offer additional growth potential.
Fully equipped, including private accommodation
The property offers a total living area of approximately 346 m².
The private accommodation includes a living room with an open fireplace, an office, three bedrooms, a dressing room and a spacious bathroom.
The entire property is sold including its inventory and is equipped with a heat pump and 18 solar panels.
Outside, there is a large garden with beautiful views and a children's playground. The grounds border directly onto woodland, making this an ideal location for walkers, cyclists and horse riders.
The A71 motorway, connecting northern and southern France, is just 15 minutes away.
An attractive opportunity for entrepreneurial buyers
With an established customer base, professional restaurant facilities and opportunities to operate both the restaurant and campsite more actively, this property offers considerable potential for enthusiastic new owners.
The sale includes the property and its inventory.
The existing business structure is not included in the sale. Buyers are therefore free to choose the legal structure that best suits their future business plans.
Further information regarding opportunities for modernisation and development of the establishment is available upon request.
