Description

The Fox & Hounds is a well-appointed country pub and restaurant that stands in an excellent plot of approximately 1.6 acres, surrounded by beautiful Worcestershire countryside. The property itself appears to be of Georgian style, constructed of brick with colourwashed elevations, having later extensions to the rear. It provides extensive and well-appointed trading areas that were upgraded by the current owners in 2017 and are still appointed in very good condition. It enjoys an excellent reputation as a pub and restaurant within Worcestershire, attracting a large number of customers from Worcester, Bromyard, Malvern and the surrounding area. Under the current owners' tenure, it has traded successfully since they took control, with trade steadily increasing year on year.

The pleasant village of Lulsley stands between the cathedral city of Worcester and the Herefordshire market town of Bromyard, being located just south of the A44 on the edge of the Ravenshill Woodland Reserve. The area is a sought-after residential location with a number of good villages in the area, mainly due to its communication links, being approximately 10 miles from the city of Worcester with all the amenities it offers, and its excellent location on the M5 motorway. The village is located in some of Worcestershire's most picturesque countryside and is perfect for The Fox & Hounds to operate as a destination dining venue from this populated and affluent area in the Midlands.

After purchasing the business in 2017 and prior to opening, the owners undertook a refurbishment programme which has proved exceptionally popular. The business developed into a food-led operation and enjoyed much success prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. Since Covid, the owners have taken a more active role in the business and decided to stop offering a full time kitchen in June 2024. The business is now predominantly wet sales but has the use of the kitchen from which it provides food, when required, for themed nights and events. The owners also invite food trucks to the pub every week so that people dining at the food truck can use the public house for the purchase of drinks.
FREEHOLD PRICE £495,000 to include fixtures, fittings and goodwill. Stock at valuation in addition.
