The Traddock: Luxury hotel in stunning Yorkshire Dales village is brought to market for offers in region of £2.25m
A luxury hotel in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park is seeking new owners.
The Traddock, a five silver star country house hotel, has been brought to market by Colliers’ specialist Hotels Agency team for offers in the region of £2.25 million.
A spokesman for Colliers said: “Located in the picturesque village of Austwick near Settle, the property is widely recognised as one of the region’s leading boutique hotels.”
The Traddock comprises a Grade II listed property combining Georgian origins with later Victorian and modern extensions. It also has planning permission for further development, including additional bedrooms and expanded restaurant and function space.
The statement added: “The hotel comprises 14 individually designed en-suite bedrooms, together with public areas including two dining rooms, three lounges and a well-appointed bar. Offering approximately 75 covers across a variety of distinctive spaces, the property caters equally well for residents and non-residents. The public areas were comprehensively refurbished in 2019.”
"Set within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and within easy reach of the Forest of Bowland and the Lake District, the hotel benefits from a strong trading location supported by a wide range of outdoor pursuits and tourist attractions, including the Yorkshire Three Peaks and the Settle–Carlisle railway.”
“Having been owned and developed by two generations of the Reynolds family for around 24 years the hotel is now being offered for sale as the owners look to retire and pursue other business ventures.”
Robert Smithson, director in Colliers’ Hotels Agency team, commented: “The Traddock represents a rare opportunity to acquire a best-in-class country house hotel in one of the UK’s most desirable national park locations. The business combines an exceptional reputation with strong underlying trading performance, while also offering clear potential for further growth, particularly through the implementation of its existing planning consents and expansion of the accommodation and events offering.”
Paul Reynolds, owner of The Traddock, added: “We and our family have thoroughly enjoyed owning and developing The Traddock over the past 24 years and are incredibly proud of what it has become. Following a period of significant investment and growth, we feel the time is right for my parents to step back and focus on retirement. We hope to pass the business on to a new owner who will continue to build on its success and take it to the next level.”
