Situation
Southport is a popular coastal resort town in Merseyside, approximately 16 miles north of Liverpool. The town benefits from good road communications via the A565 and A570, with the latter providing access to the M58 and wider motorway network.
The property is prominently situated on the north side of Lord Street, Southport’s principal retail and leisure thoroughfare. Travelodge Southport immediately adjoins the property and, given Southport’s popularity as a tourist destination, provides potential additional footfall from hotel guests. A large Morrisons supermarket with approximately 295 car parking spaces is immediately to the rear of the property.
Southport’s principal retail and leisure amenities are within easy reach, including Wayfarers Shopping Arcade, which comprises more than 30 shops and cafés, together with Marine Lake, Ocean Plaza Leisure Park and Victoria Park.
