Accommodation - The ground floor entrance hall has a wonderful, welcoming feel with an impressive staircase leading to the first floor. There are doors to the guest dining area and the working kitchen beyond, as well as the bar and games room and the function room.

At over 50ft long, the function room offers the most spectacular space, suitable for many occasions such as weddings, events, family get-togethers and other social functions. There is access straight through to the lounge bar, which is furnished with relaxed, comfortable seating and a large fireplace to enjoy a winter’s day in front of the fire. The games room provides some activity space and there are male and female facilities available.

A door to the side opens to the garden which would naturally lend itself to use as a beer garden or seating area and may offer further outdoor commercial opportunities to take advantage of passing trade in the sunshine. There is a separate front door and lobby to enable casual entry to the bar without any access through to the main guest house.

The first floor landing has a spacious, open feel and has room for furniture along with windows that flood the area with light. There is access to four double guest rooms, all with en suite facilities, along with a private staircase leading to the owner’s accommodation on the second floor.

Parking - There is a large, sliding gated entrance to the front of the property, opening up to a gravelled area providing plenty of parking. There is a terrace to the front, to sit and relax in the sunshine.

Owner's Insight - The owner purchased the property some years ago and has a been very busy upgrading and refurbishing during her time here. She has enjoyed a comfortable income whilst managing an ideal working lifestyle to suit her current needs and does not regularly use the bar or function rooms for business purposes.

Our owner is looking forward to passing the property on to a purchaser who has ambition and who would take the business and all the opportunities available to a level that they are comfortable with, whilst enjoying a work/life balance to suit in such wonderful surroundings.
