Introduction

Successful tourist business (many five star reviews) that can generate immediate income and offers tremendous opportunities for further expansion and development. The property is situated on the outskirts of Obterre, a small picturesque village in the very popular Parc Naturel Régional de La Brenne, also known as the ‘Land of a Thousand Lakes’. Obterre has a small shop & bar. The local bakers deliver fresh bread & croissants most days. More stores & restaurants in Saint-Flovier (5 kms), Azay-le-Ferron (8 kms) and large supermarket in Châtillon-sur-Indre (13 kms).

Description

There are three properties over-looking a gravelled courtyard with duck pond and fish:

The Main Building comprises the owner’s apartment, four rental studios, small office and adjoining laundry room with information leaflets & book exchange.

The Barn has a section used in the summer as a recreational area (table tennis, darts etc.) and for storage & maintenance. Attached to the barn is a two bedroom gîte and at the other end a recently constructed modern & well-equipped toilet/shower block (approx 38 m²) for the campsite with separate Ladies and Gents facilities, each having a fully equipped wet-room for those with disabilities.

The third building is an old farmhouse. It is in need of full renovation but could provide an additional wonderful residence or gîtes with tremendous character.

The current owners have gradually developed the property and land to provide a successful holiday accommodation business, with a campsite currently having twelve large emplacements, four rental studios and a two bedroom gîte. Caravan storage helps boost the camping business receipts with a high percentage of the current annual turnover (65%+) produced from returning visitors.

Exterior

The above ground round splash pool is approximately 5 metres in diameter. At the rear of the barn is a gravelled area for a marquee that is erected in the summer and a small vegetable garden with old greenhouse. There is a great deal of scope for further development and expansion, with permission being granted for an extension of the campsite which has been delayed due to illnesses and the impact of the pandemic. The Main Building first floor (about 158 m²) is empty and available for further development, just like the old farmhouse. The total terrain is 35,365 m² with the properties and campsite occupying 20,502m². A separate section of land (14,862m²) is available for further development. Plans have been prepared for 20 large emplacements (for mobil homes / static caravans, Glamping, cabins or all year serviced pitches) and a caravan storage area for 60 caravans. The required Land Study & Topographical surveys have been carried out in readiness.

Other information

All properties have electric heating with a log burner in the owner’s apartment. They are built in stone and, over recent years, extensive renovation work has been completed to each of the rental properties. A completely new drainage system was installed in 2020 incorporating a modern Microstation (meeting all European standards) to replace numerous septic tanks. Fibre Optic internet, for free Wi-Fi around the whole site. CCTV protects the area around the main building, with Satellite TV connections in all properties and each camping pitch too. The owners are offering a ‘turn-key’ proposition for all studios & gîte and would be willing to provide support for a couple of weeks if required. Details about the different accommodations, the business activities, the financial details and the interactive website with online reservation system can be made available to seriously interested prospective buyers.
