Business park for sale

Montignac-Lascaux, Dordogne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine

Located less than 800 metres from the internationally renowned Lascaux IV, this prime position draws significant year-round tourism alongside a loyal and established local clientele.

This is not simply a restaurant sale - it is the acquisition of a profitable hospitality business combined with freehold ownership in one of the Dordogne’s most sought-after tourist locations.
Turnkey, asset-backed, and offering significant organic growth potential, this is an exceptional opportunity for experienced operators, relocating entrepreneurs or investors seeking a lifestyle and commercial return in equal measure.
The property & location

Occupying an enviable riverside setting along the Vézère, the restaurant enjoys panoramic views and sunset exposure from its expansive terrace. All amenities, markets, festivals and town centre attractions are within walking distance, reinforcing its strong footfall and visibility.
Montignac forms part of the Périgord Noir - one of France’s most visited heritage regions - attracting both domestic and international visitors throughout the year.
The restaurant

The dining area offers approximately 120 m2 of bright, contemporary space, fully refurbished during 2024–2025 with significant recent investment. The interior presents a modern yet warm atmosphere with professional bar area, quality furnishings and efficient layout.
Externally, a terrace of approximately 100 m2 overlooks the river, providing an exceptional seasonal dining environment. The terrace benefits from attractive annual occupation costs compared with larger regional towns, enhancing operational margins.
An additional flat roof terrace area offers further development potential (subject to planning consents), ideal for a cocktail or sunset drinks space, creating additional high-margin revenue streams.
Kitchen & equipment

The professional catering kitchen is fully equipped and maintained to a high standard. Equipment has been regularly renewed and upgraded, allowing immediate continuation of trade without significant additional capital expenditure.
The sale includes the full operational setup, enabling a seamless transition for a new owner.
Licence

Licence IV is included in the sale and currently under-exploited, presenting clear opportunity for expansion into bar, brasserie, cocktail or continuous service concepts.
Financial position

The business has been trading successfully for over two decades and presents consistent, well-documented accounts demonstrating stable turnover and healthy profitability.
Importantly, the current operating model includes substantial annual closure periods and restricted service windows, meaning the restaurant is not currently trading at maximum capacity.
Detailed financial documentation is available to qualified buyers following initial discussions.
Growth potential

Several realistic and cumulative growth levers exist without structural expansion of the building:
• Increased opening days
• Extended peak-season service windows
• Continuous afternoon brasserie or bar service
• Group and coach bookings linked to Lascaux tourism
• Takeaway and premium pizza sales
• Retail corner for regional products and wine
• Exploitation of roof terrace space (subject to approval)
• Potential development of guest accommodation (subject to permissions)
The business already performs strongly under its current model, offering clear upside for an ambitious owner-operator or hospitality investor.
Freehold & structure

The sale includes both the business and the freehold premises, offering long-term security and asset backing.
Flexible structuring options may be considered, including rental arrangements to support financing strategy, subject to agreement.
An attached building spread over 3 floors includes a separate owners 2 bed apartment for hotel exploitation.
