The owners of a village pub and restaurant have sold up and are heading off to Spain.
Gary Lloyd and his wife Chris who have run Lakeside View in Mill Road, St Osyth for the past three years said it was time to move on.
The pair are likely to see out most, if not all, of this season but do not expect to be there for next.
"Contracts are going through for Lakeside and we are also selling a bed and breakfast over the road, as well as another business in Weeley," said Mr Lloyd.
"It is likely that Chris will go off to Spain with my dad and look around and then I will follow when everything is tied up this end."
Mr Lloyd said Lakeside was first put on the market about five to six weeks ago and sold within a week.
Mr Lloyd said the business had been sold to a family and as far as he is aware it will continue to be operated on the same lines as it is at the moment.
