OVERVIEW
Holywell Mead Leisure Centre (Wycombe Rye Lido) comprises a well established leisure complex set within the attractive surroundings of Wycombe Rye Park. The property includes a heated outdoor swimming lido, a children’s pool, gym and fitness areas, a café, sports pitches and associated leisure accommodation. We are advised there are c. 1,000 members.
The complex extends to approximately 14,531 sq ft and benefits from a large car park with around 100 spaces. The site offers a rare opportunity to acquire a leasehold interest with c.35 years remaining unexpired, a low passing rent and broad permitted leisure uses.
The café is underlet (details provided in the Buyer Pack) and the car park is operated via Ringo, generating additional income. The property has benefitted from tenant improvements, including new boilers for the pools, although both pools are understood to require relining (quote c.£40,000).
The lease is for sale on behalf of joint administrators, and a new operator is sought to purchase the lease and operate the facilities.
