Kings Arms Bideford Road Cleeve Prior Evesham Worcester WR11 8LQ

The village of Cleeve Prior is located in the heart of open countryside near many of England's most desirable tourist attractions, including the Cotswold Hills, the Vale of Evesham and the River Avon, all of which are within a few miles. Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, is approximately 9 miles distant.

The Kings Arms is located in the heart of this very sought-after and select village. The property dates back to the 16th century and is Grade II listed. It has a wealth of period charm and character which is evident throughout.

The property was acquired by our client, a local investor, when it was closed. He is from the area and was keen to see the property reopened. He subsequently carried out a considerable improvement plan which included reroofing the main building. The property is in immaculate condition throughout; it is extremely well presented and needs no further investment. However, planning permission has been granted for the conversion of the large stone built barn (approximately 1800 sq ft in size) to two self contained holiday cottages. One two bedroom cottage and the other a two bedroom unit.

The property, which much be viewed to be appreciated, is described as follows:
