The restaurant is spacious, bright and the main dining hall has a vaulted ceiling which adds to the relaxed environment. There is a further dining hall, bar servery, customer toilets and plenty of storage. In total the internal covers equals circa 55. The commercial kitchen is ideal for the number of covers and leads to further useful storage. The restaurant is currently let on an 8-year lease at £20,400pa. Further details are available.

The accommodation offers many period features and modern-day comforts and is deceptively spacious. It includes an excellent sized living room with feature fireplace and views overlooking the restaurant towards the village and beyond, a modern fitted kitchen, family bathroom, 3 bedrooms including 1 with an ensuite.

The Restaurant is currently let on an 8 year lease starting 01/11/2022 at £1700pcm or £20,400 pa.
The Annex/Airbnb is very popular and has only been used as lettings accommodation since the start of April 2023. It is let at £120 per night with a minimum 2-night stay and the cost during July and August increases to £140 per night. The income over the last 3 months has equalled to around £3,500, with the school summer holidays then this is likely to increase significantly through more lettings during the weekdays as well as the weekends. We conservatively anticipate that the income for the whole year would equal around £15,000 pa.
This would bring the total income to around £35,000 pa plus the occupation of a beautiful home.

In addition to the family residence there is an annex or 1 bedroom cottage which is currently used for short term lets. It has been very successful as would be expected of what is, a well presented spacious split level self-contained space. The lower of the 2 levels is a full height living space brightly lit by some large sky light windows and is ideal for chilling out after venturing out in the countryside. An open plan staircase leads to a unique dining space and modern open plan kitchen. There is a good-sized double bedroom and modern shower room.
All aspects of the property have independent access points and there are outside spaces for the restaurant and 2 patios for the main residence and lettings cottage.
