The London & South East office of specialist pub agents Sidney Phillips, is offering an extensively refurbished country public house near Battle, East Sussex, for sale.
The White Hart is located in the picturesque village of Netherfield in the Rother District of East Sussex. The village is situated in an elevated position above the historic town of Battle, famous as the site of the Battle of Hastings. Other local attractions include Bateman’s (Rudyard Kipling's Jacobean House), Herstmonceux Castle and Hastings old town and sea front.
Occupying a hilltop position, the White Hart benefits from three bar and dining areas housing 69 covers, a well-appointed two bedroom owners accommodation, as well as the property’s unique selling point, a superbly presented and landscaped trade terrace area with stunning views over the surrounding countryside, as well as Beachy Head and the English Channel beyond. The trade terrace provides seating for 30 and encompasses a pergola with built in pizza oven as well as a fire pit. Offset there is a lawned trade area which houses 8 picnic benches. These areas are extremely popular especially during the summer months.
Robert Cockayne, of Sidney Phillips, who is handling the sale, commented: “Our clients have taken a dilapidated and poorly trading public house, and invested widely in the infrastructure and presentation to create the popular destination food-led pub that we see today. The business draws in customers from far and wide who seek to enjoy the pleasant setting. A new owner could further extend the property with an extension to the restaurant, subject to planning permission.”
The freehold interest of the White Hart is being marketed off an asking price of £665,000.
