A41084LEL23 - Sitting at the end of a private driveway behind double gates, this impressive property enjoys a stunning riverside setting, with the Gartempe flowing past and views of the water visible from both the restaurant and bar.

Ground Floor:
Entering the house, you are welcomed into a reception room with a fireplace,(35m2), and staircase leading to the first floor.

Further along the corridor, you reach the large function room,(78m2), which has private external access via a staircase, along with a WC. To the right of the stairs, the bar—with the original large bar still in place—leads into the restaurant,51m2, both of which also have direct external access via exterior steps.

Second Floor:
