Land for sale

Kirton Holme, Boston PE20

Overview.

The Poachers Inn presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold hospitality and events venue in a prominent semi-rural position just outside Boston, Lincolnshire.

The entire property, including the hotel accommodation and principal trading areas, has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment programme costing approximately £500,000, undertaken by sl Developments Ltd, a specialist developer with a reputation for high-quality refurbishments and new-build properties.

The works have been completed to a high-end specification throughout, creating a stylish, fully refurbished venue ready to open and operate as a hotel, events venue, public house and restaurant.

Dating back to 1838, this established former country inn and wedding venue retains its traditional character while offering extensive modern accommodation. The property includes 14 en-suite guest bedrooms, generous function and event spaces, attractive bar and dining areas, and a strong historic trading profile.

The property ceased trading in October 2025 and is offered for sale freehold with vacant possession.

Unconditional offers will only be considered.

The Building

The accommodation brings together the character of a historic country inn with the comfort and presentation of a carefully refurbished hospitality venue.

An equipped commercial kitchen supports the hospitality and events facilities.
