Description

Dating back to the 17th Century, this substantial detached stone-built property combines commercial and residential accommodation, offering hospitality, leisure or mixed-use business opportunity.

The property is arranged over two storeys beneath a traditional slate roof. At ground floor level, the former public house and restaurant retains original features including exposed stone walls, fireplace with log burner and floor-to-ceiling windows. Part of this area of the property is currently in a shell condition. The spacious café/bar features a central servery, cosy snug area and seating for approximately 50 covers, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for guests.

Supporting the trading operation is a well-equipped commercial kitchen with Altro non-slip flooring, a separate preparation area, pot wash room and refrigeration room. Additional facilities include a ground floor cellar together with ladies’ and gentlemen’s customer WCs.

The first floor provides a fully furnished airbnb or guest accommodation, centred around a fully equipped open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area with games space and pool table. The accommodation includes a bunk room sleeping four with en-suite shower room, a further letting room with three single beds and en-suite facilities, together with a private WC.

Externally, the property offers ample parking, with space for approximately six vehicles to the front and a substantial rear car park accommodating around 40 vehicles. A private enclosed decked patio area to the rear of the former bar provides an attractive outdoor trading and socialising space.
