The Williams Rest Hotel is one of only three hotels in the small Lanarkshire village of Crawford which lies next to the main road connecting Scotland and England the A74 (M). This delightful little village with a population of around 300 has a local primary school, village shop & village hall and is set amongst some of the most beautiful countryside Lanarkshire has to offer. The hotel itself which is steeped in character with wood panelling & log fires doted around the property has been lovingly cared for & restored over the years which is noticeable on first entering the property.

With Crawford being situated so close to the A74 (M) motorway the hotel has historically catered mainly for guests who are travelling on business or tourists passing through the village. However, our clients advise us that they are currently in negotiation with a large contractor to provide 3 letting rooms from Monday to Friday each week for the next 2-3 years, as work is due to begin on development of a wind farm nearby to the hotel. Not only will future owners benefit from the guaranteed income from the room sales, our client is confidant that the wet & food side of the business will also greatly increase. We understand that management will take the rooms. The hotel also plays a important part in the local community as Crawford’s only “Inn” where locals can meet and have a drink in the cosy bar to discus the days events or to enjoy a traditional Scottish meal in the delightful 30 cover restaurant. At the weekend the hotel plays host to Karaoke nights.

The Williams Rest Hotel is presented in a walk in condition allowing for new owners to take over the business and start trading from day one which is what our clients had planed until illness forced the proprietor to place the hotel on the market for sale.  Viewing is essential to fully appreciate this charming & well-presented business.
