The site’s unrivalled location could provide hotel, restaurant, boating or leisure operators with a unique selling point. In the past the site has been operated as a conference and wedding venue as well as maintaining strong links with its nautical heritage and the local 8.1m Sea Scouts. Local planning policy would seek to retain the existing leisure and recreation uses and there is now the opportunity for a visionary to capitalise on this rare opportunity.
