The town is located 15 miles north of Manchester and 22 miles east of Preston and is situated in the heart of the Rossendale Valley. In recent years, the area has become popular with visitors attracted to its historic buildings, dramatic landscapes and the East Lancashire Railway, a 12-mile heritage steam railway line running from Heywood in Greater Manchester to Rawtenstall.
The town is well connected with the M66 providing links to Greater Manchester and the M65 providing links to Preston and West Yorkshire, both via the A56. Rawtenstall also has an excellent public transport system with bus services running throughout the region.

Hop is Rawtenstall's only micro pub specialising in local ales, continental beers, wines and spirits. It has a cosy and traditional ambiance. Our clients have operated the business since 2016 and are now offering both freehold and leasehold options to the market in order to focus on their other business retirement. The business has a strong customer base (being supported by a regular local trade and by day trippers at weekends), a strong social media following and excellent online reviews.

Trading figures for the year ended 30th June 2025 show net sales of £309,401 with an adjusted net profit of £56,278. It is our opinion that this opportunity would suit a hands-on operator or a family team to build upon our clients' success to-date.
