David Reid of Knight Frank, who are handling the deal, said: “I have sold Royal Dornoch Hotel which attracted huge levels of interest and sold within a matter of a couple of weeks of coming on the market. With its amazing history dating from the 15th century there is no question that Dornoch Castle Hotel will receive similar international interest and, the fact that it is trading very well with exceptional profits will appeal to a huge variety of buyers.”
Knight Frank are selling Dornoch Castle Hotel on behalf of well known hoteliers Colin and Roselyn Thompson who have decided with their involvement in other family business interests that now could be the right time to sell the hotel allowing new owners the opportunity to take the hotel even further.
Colin Thompson commented: “With 25 rooms, restaurant, bar and lovely gardens we have considered a major extension development ourselves but realistically Roselyn and myself are so involved in other projects and have absolutely loved developing Dornoch Castle into exactly what it is today perhaps now is the time to move on.”
Reid finalised by saying: “Our asking price of £2.5 million (approximately HK$30 million) for this charming hotel with huge amounts of historical interest is already attracting interest and I have received a few calls from America and London within only days of going on the market.”
Perhaps there will be interest from this side of the world, too?
