Dog & Hedgehog, 2 The Green, Dadlington, Nuneaton, CV13 6BJ

The Dog & Hedgehog is a substantial freehold hospitality property located in the centre of Dadlington, a well-connected Warwickshire village positioned between Hinckley, Market Bosworth and Nuneaton. The site extends to approximately one acre and comprises a traditional 18th-century public house, two residential cottages and a four-bedroom duplex owner’s apartment. The property also benefits from outline planning permission for the development of holiday let shepherd huts, offering scope for future expansion.

The main building houses a traditional public house with a central bar with an open fireplace. A split-level dining area spans two floors and is suitable for both everyday trade and private functions. The commercial kitchen is fully equipped and supported by a separate wash area and laundry room.
Above the pub is a four-bedroom duplex apartment, providing private accommodation for an owner-operator or manager. The property also includes two self-contained two-bedroom cottages, which are suitable for staff housing, long-term rental, or short-stay accommodation. Additional facilities include a staff changing block and a garage storage area.

Occupying a prominent position overlooking the village green, the property is situated in Dadlington - a rural village with strong local character and appeal. The area is easily accessible via regional road networks and benefits from tourism activity, supported by Leicestershire County Council’s Tourism Action Plan 2020–2025, which promotes rural leisure development.

Fixtures and fittings are included in the sale. A detailed inventory will be provided to interested parties and their solicitors.

To the rear of the property, offers two beer gardens with outdoor seating. The site includes customer parking for up to 50 vehicles. A large garden area at the back of the site benefits from outline planning permission for the installation of shepherd huts, creating an opportunity to diversify into the holiday accommodation sector.

The owner’s accommodation consists of a spacious four-bedroom duplex apartment located above the pub. It offers direct access to the business and is supported by a staff changing block and garage storage, providing operational flexibility.

The Dog & Hedgehog presents a compelling opportunity for an experienced operator to revive and reposition a well-known village pub with significant potential. Although currently closed, the property is ready for a new owner to re-establish it as a thriving hospitality business.

With a traditional layout, spacious interiors, and a prominent location overlooking the village green, the pub is well-suited for food and beverage trade. The inclusion of two self-contained two-bedroom cottages offers immediate potential for rental income - either as long-term lets or short-stay accommodation.

In addition, the large rear garden benefits from outline planning permission for the development of shepherd huts, providing a clear route to expand into the growing rural tourism and staycation market. For the right operator, this site offers not only a chance to reopen a much-loved local venue but also to build a diversified business with multiple revenue streams in a desirable countryside setting.

Rateable Value: £67,000.
