Description
The hotel has retained some wonderful character features. However, the building has been extended to include 39 ensuite letting bedrooms, a bar for c. 35 covers, separate restaurant for c. 50 covers, and two function rooms - one of which can accommodate up to 120 guests and has a separate bar and cloakroom. There is a well-equipped commercial kitchen and a three-bedroom staff flat.
Private parking at the rear of the property has the capacity for 30 vehicles.
Since 2019, the hotel has undergone a programme of refurbishment, including improvements to 15 bedrooms, the restaurant, and function room.
This 16th-century Grade II listed coaching inn is situated in the centre of Wallingford, a historic Oxfordshire market town. The location is perfect to capture the corporate market, local business and leisure functions, as well as Oxfordshire tourism. Located approximately 12 miles from Oxford and approximately 13 miles from Reading, there are good communication links, with the A34 and M40 within easy reach. Didcot Parkway is approximately 6 miles from the hotel with a direct service to London Paddington. There are also a number of business parks located nearby, including Milton Park.
Internal DetailsThe hotel reception is accessed to the rear of the property, leading on to the bar and restaurant, adjacent to the commercial kitchen. The function rooms are situated on the other side of the courtyard, all having their own direct access. The recently refurbished restaurant boasts c. 50 covers, and the bar, which offers casual dining and drinks, has c. 35 covers. The bar and restaurant are both popular with non-hotel guests. There is a commercial kitchen and separate cloakrooms on the ground floor.
Fixtures & FittingsAll fixtures and fittings are included within the sale.
The OpportunityThe hotel has traded well over the 20 years that the current owners have run the business. There is now an excellent opportunity for a new buyer to purchase the hotel and develop the business further, following the recent refurbishment. There are opportunities to enhance the wedding trade, offering afternoon teas and maximising the trading space outside.
The hotel receives very good TripAdvisor and Google reviews. A new operator can identify the opportunity to increase the current trading performance, invest where necessary, and build on the long standing reputation of the hotel.
A full list of staff to be transferred on completion will be provided.
