Exmoor - National Park Award Winning Established Bar & Restaruant

Woods occupies a prominent position in the historic centre of Dulverton, close to the Grade II listed 15th century church of All Saints. Dulverton has a population of approximately 1,400, however the large number of year-round visitors increases this total.

Dulverton is the southern gateway to Exmoor National Park and a short distance from the A396, an 'A' road which connects Tiverton to Minehead on the West Somerset Coastline. It is a small market town on the banks of the River Barle and is popular with visitors. Dulverton claims 40 independent shops which are rarely vacant and provide an interesting mix of shopping facilities which draws custom from outlying areas. A former workhouse within the town is now the headquarters of the Exmoor National Park Authority. Dulverton is a vibrant town: it is the home of a cricket club and hosts regular events such as the Duck Derby on August Bank Holiday and a vintage fayre in September. A starlight festival also takes place at the start of December.

Woods is an important part of the culture of Dulverton and is a hugely well-known business with high volume turnover. Its popularity helps bring visitors to Dulverton. The property is briefly described as follows:

TRADE AREAS
Woods was created by the present owners in 2004. They sympathetically altered the former DINING ROOM business to introduce a hand-crafted wooden interior which creates an open plan bar space and intimate dining areas separated by mellow wood dividers and complemented by purpose-built tables, chairs and settles for approximately 40. A fine feature is the main stone fireplace with roaring open fire during the winter months. To the side of this is a substantial rustic wood constructed Bar Servery counter with well stocked wood back bar display. The trading areas feature a wealth of interesting (mostly local) bric-a-brac.

A rear passageway leads to the LADIES' AND GENTLEMEN'S TOILETS. There is a ground floor level refrigerated BEER & WINE STORE and a CATERING KITCHEN which is suitably equipped and has a walk in COLD ROOM.
