LOCATION
With a return frontage onto Lee Road the main traffic route from the village to the Valley of The Rocks, the premises are in a busy location for passing trade. In the vicinity are many guest houses and a variety of shops. Lynton together with its twin resort of Lynmouth are often referred to as the 'Little Switzerland' of England as they are surrounded by deep sided wooded river valleys. The subject premises are well placed for local and tourist trade.

The site offers a triple garage, store, large secure rear parking for several cars, a shop of around 715 sq ft, 2 offices to the rear, staff kitchen and cloakroom. In addition the sorting hall is of around 725 sq ft plus a staff room beyond.
