Leisure and hospitality specialist Sidney Phillips has been instructed to market for sale the Duke of Cumberlands Head, close to Banbury.
The pub is situated in the village of Clifton, 6 miles south of the market town of Banbury, close to the motorway junction of the M40 motorway. The university city of Oxford is 18 miles due south, and the excellent communication links make it an extremely popular residential location, one that commands some of the highest property values anywhere in the United Kingdom.
At the centre of the village on a crossroads is the Duke of Cumberlands Head, a very attractive historic property being Grade II listed and dating back to the 17th century and first recorded as a public house in 1774. It is of very pleasing appearance being mellow Oxfordshire stone and stands in a large plot of 1.33 acres in addition to excellent characterful bars and restaurant facilities.
It has seven en suite letting bedrooms (six of which are self-catering) and also a well appointed campsite. There are also very convenient trade gardens which more than double the capacity of the traditional pub. The property has been considerably upgraded and refurbished over the last eight years and the quality of the improvements and the refurbishment will be evident to all who view.
The business trades well, despite currently operating on relatively limited trading hours, leaving prospective purchasers undoubted scope for developing the catering side of the business further.
The freehold interest of the Duke of Cumberlands Head is available off an asking price of £850,000.
