The lease for one of Bath’s most picturesque country pubs, located in the village of Monkton Combe, has become available. The Wheelwrights Arms is currently undergoing an extensive period of maintenance work so that a new operator will be able to introduce ideas for the business whist retaining its important role as the local village pub.
The building currently offers 28 restaurant covers in addition to a further 25 in the bar area with extensive outside seating in its garden and patio areas. As well as the pub, the adjoining building – the former Wheelwrights workshop – houses bed and breakfast accommodation including 8 en-suite rooms, a dining room and an additional kitchen.
Commenting on the availability of the pub, Philip Marshall of Crisp Cowley said: "This is a great opportunity for experienced individuals to take over one of Bath’s best located and picturesque country pubs and introduce new life into the business. Not only is the pub excellently located to serve residents to the South of Bath and its nearby villages but also the property offers an excellent opportunity to enhance both the quality and character of food and accommodation provided.
The pub has been at the centre of Monkton Combe life for over 150 years and with the right investment its position as a central social point for the village can be retained whilst also developing its standing in other ways, such as a high calibre bed and breakfast base for visitors to Bath, as a quality country restaurant or in other ways which potential new licensees may propose. Since the pub is available without tie we believe that this opportunity will raise a significant amount of interest."
