Description

The Volunteer Inn is a historic public house located in the scenic village of Ash, East Kent. Dating back to the 1800s, this two-storey building features traditional brick construction beneath a pitched slate roof and offers a glimpse into the region's rich heritage. The pub serves as a focal point for locals and tourists alike, with the potential to enhance its appeal further given its prime location near popular attractions like Wingham Wildlife Park and the beautiful beaches of Margate and Ramsgate. Inside, the pub boasts an open-plan bar area with rustic stripped wood flooring and space for expanded seating capacity. The venue currently includes gentlemen's and ladies' toilets, a kitchen, and a cellar equipped with a Heineken Smart Dispense system. The first floor has dedicated owners’ accommodation featuring two double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower, along with a bathroom and living room/kitchen setup—perfect for potential rental income or expanding the business. Externally, there are two trade patios suitable for al fresco dining and ten parking spaces available. There's also a derelict storage barn that represents additional refurbishment opportunities to increase property value or diversify usage. Situated within easy reach of Canterbury's amenities and excellent transport links, this property not only allows for immediate operation but also presents numerous avenues for renovation and investment potential.
