Walk in-walk out opportunity available for those seeking an already well-established business firmly entrenched in the psyche of the Tamar Valley tourist.
The ‘Hillwood Strawberry Farm’ trades as an on-farm ‘pick your own’ venture and includes a shop front boasting an array of their own fruit wines, jams, gourmet icecream, local cheeses and preserves. Current owners have also established wholesale supply of fresh fruit to local grocers in Launceston.
The business already has a healthy bottom line but with plenty of scope for the new owner to expand the shop front to include light meals throughout the spring-summer-autumn tourist season. The ‘Hillwood Strawberry Farm’ has been a ‘must do’ for tourists in the Tamar Valley for 45 years and is prominently promoted in regional tourism information outlets.
