Description

This remarkable property, long cherished by its owners for over three decades, presents a unique opportunity for anyone interested in acquiring a traditional country pub nestled within the idyllic Dorset countryside. Its prime location has historically attracted patrons from nearby towns such as Wareham, Dorchester, Weymouth, Poole, Bournemouth, Blandford, Wimborne, Swanage, and the commuter-friendly village of Wool. This well-established venue boasts the capacity to accommodate up to 300 guests, making it a favorite spot for both locals and visitors. The property features two dining areas—including a spacious conservatory with seating for 90—along with a large car park and an inviting beer garden equipped with extensive outdoor seating. A modern commercial kitchen stands ready to support various culinary endeavors. The first floor offers versatile accommodations consisting of 4 to 5 bedrooms that could serve as living quarters or be transformed into additional rental units to enhance revenue potential. Adjacent to the property is a well-maintained campsite that attracts numerous guests year-round. The presence of established walking routes and ample parking space makes it convenient for coach parties, which further boosts foot traffic and sales opportunities. Additionally, a sizable garage that once served as the coach house is currently underutilized; however, it holds significant potential for redevelopment or alternative uses subject to relevant planning permissions. Interested parties are encouraged to schedule a visit to appreciate not only the physical attributes but also the tranquil ambiance of this semi-rural gem. With its combination of historic charm and substantial renovation possibilities, this property offers an exciting chance for future growth in a sought-after location.
