Guide Price £280,000 for the freehold.
The R&R Centre is a former WWII RAF radar base, converted into a 24 bed hostel with provisions for 16 pitched tents on site. It has been converted with a full fit out kitchen facility, lounge and dining area and 3 bathrooms. There is also outside space and ample parking.

The South West Coast Path, part of the Jurassic Coast (a World Heritage Site), is just twenty minutes, 1.5 miles away.
