Refurbished country pub available on free-of-tie lease, East Sussex

The Plough Inn, a recently refurbished country pub in the village of Crowhurst in East Sussex has been brought to market through specialist business property advisor, Sidney Phillips.

The Plough Inn lies in the charming village of Crowhurst in East Sussex approximately 5 miles north west of the major conurbation of Hastings, a short drive from the historic town of Battle. The area is popular with nature enthusiasts seeking to enjoy walks throughout the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and bird watching at Fore Wood RSPB Reserve, as well as numerous visitors to Battle Abbey.

This prominent public house is elevated over the junction of Plough Lane and Chapel Hill, and despite dating back to 1805, is not a listed building, yet retains many characterful original features.

The property comprises a 53 cover bar and restaurant, commercial kitchen and two bedroom owner’s accommodation on the first floor. Externally, the pub features a newly installed trade garden with seating for up to 50-80 covers, car park for 10 vehicles with the added benefit of a public car park adjacent for overflow use during busy periods.

Robert Cockayne of Sidney Phillips who is handling the leasing of the property comments: "Following its recent refurbishment the Plough Inn is presented to a superb standard throughout. This is a great opportunity for a new hands-on operator or chef patron to take on a charming country pub with bags of potential, on a free-of-tie lease under favourable terms." 

Offers are invited on the new lease on a new 20 year lease agreement with a rent of £30,000 per annum.
