Description

Description

The Manor Hotel & Pub is a well-established, food-led destination venue. Housed in a beautifully preserved, grade II listed, 16th-century building, the property boasts a wealth of original period features, including exposed timber beams throughout the bar and restaurant areas, creating a warm and characterful atmosphere.

Renowned for its unique Black Rock Grill dining tradition, The Manor has built a strong reputation over the past 15 years, attracting both locals and visitors from further afield.

The pub features seven charming letting rooms, providing comfortable accommodation for overnight guests, and a lovely beer garden that enhances its appeal during the warmer months.

Nestled in the charming village of Alconbury, The Manor Hotel & Pub enjoys a prime position just off the A1, making it easily accessible for both local visitors and those travelling from further afield. The venue is approximately a 15-minute drive from Huntingdon, where the nearest train station provides convenient rail connections to London and other major destinations. The pub offers a peaceful countryside atmosphere while remaining close to key transport links, making it an ideal spot for both leisure and business guests.

The Opportunity

The Manor Hotel & Pub presents an opportunity to acquire a well-established and locally cherished hospitality business in the heart of Alconbury. With a strong reputation among both residents and visitors, whether travelling for work or leisure, the property enjoys consistent trade and excellent visibility just off the A1.

The business benefits from six en-suite letting rooms and a separate annexe, which offer significant potential to increase occupancy levels.

Importantly, the property is well-positioned to benefit from the anticipated uplift in regional tourism and business travel linked to the forthcoming Universal Studios development in Bedford. This major project is expected to drive substantial visitor numbers to the area, making The Manor an ideal base for guests seeking quality accommodation with easy access to key transport routes.

This is an exciting opportunity for an operator to build on an already successful foundation and take advantage of future growth in the region.
