Weir Wood reservoir lease for sale

Lets hope this doesn't turn into a Bewl situation with new landlords..

"Chris Spofforth, Savills' head of farm agency in the South East, said: "This is an exceptionally rare opportunity with considerable potential to grow the income from leisure, tourism and environmental enterprises.

"Beyond the income from the existing tenants, there are significant opportunities for environmentalists, offset investors and leisure and tourism entrepreneurs, which could include, subject to planning, moving or rebuilding the existing facilities and adding a visitor centre or accommodation at the reservoir, for example."

Not altogether encouraging words...

	Must be at least 500 members at Weir. £2000 each, in prime banker bonus country, to own your own facility seems a stonking good deal. Give a discount on lifelong membership for anyonewho chips in.

	thats on the basis that the current owner/s want to sell to the sailing club. If they do the angling club could chip in as well. If not because they get a sweatner from some developer, then its game over.

	You are either a sailing club, or an estate management business. Being both would be a massive headache. Edited by Chris_H - 28 Jul 20 at 9:58am
