Shropshire nursery to join childcare group

A Shropshire nursery is set to join the ChildrensWorld group, following a leasehold sale.

Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co was instructed to find a new tenant for Tunstall Hall Nursery in Market Drayton, by the freehold owner St Philips Care Caledonia.

Tunstall Hall is a large day nursery with operating capacity for up to 54 children. It occupies recently renovated premises set in a rural location which it shares with an elderly care home also operated by St Philips Care Caledonia, enabling visits for the young children to the care home and vice versa.

The a new lease has been purchased by ChildrensWorld, which has three other settings in Shrewsbury, Newport, and Telford.

Elizabeth Smith-Keitley, managing director at ChildrensWorld said: “We are very pleased to add Tunstall Hall nursery to the ChildrensWorld group, the location is fantastic for parents and children.

“We shall be introducing ‘Forest School’ sessions to maximise the potential of the large outdoor area, and the nursery has been re-fitted with a fantastic range of Community Playthings furniture and resources to offer first-class quality care and education to all the children attending.”

Jassi Sunner, associate director for childcare & education at Christie & Co said: “Tunstall Hall is set in a picturesque part of Shropshire, and benefits from vast open space which was immediately attractive to a range of buyers and, in particular, the purchaser who was local to the setting.

“After a short marketing campaign, it was clear that the new operator and landlord had a fantastic relationship that would make them the ideal tenant.”

Tunstall Hall Nursery was sold for an undisclosed price.
