Features and description
- Furnished
The village of Withington resides in rural Shropshire between Shrewsbury and Telford. The village has a thriving community which is a real benefit to The Hare & Hounds as it is well patronised by the surrounding area.
The property itself is in the village centre and has been subject to a major refurbishment since being purchased by the current owners: It is presented in excellent condition throughout, especially the owners’ accommodation which has recently been completed to a standard acceptable for Airbnb. It also enjoys a good outside space and car park for those visiting the pub from further afield.
The Property
This cottage style, semi-detached property appears to be constructed in the main of brick with colourwashed elevations under pitched and flat roofs. It offers ground floor trading areas with accommodation above and benefits from two outside trading areas and a car park.
The business trades as a public house to the local community and is an excellent opportunity for those wanting to trade a thriving village pub.
Since purchasing the property in 2024, the owners have embarked on a full refurbishment scheme and have established the pub as one of the best in the locality. This is proven in the trading levels achieved from limited hours.
The pub operates six days a week, being closed Wednesdays. Due to the owners’ other business commitments, food is only provided on weekends (including Friday) and generally via a themed night, and Sunday lunches.
During the week it hosts several clubs and societies including darts, archery, golf society, ‘knit and natter’, and local shoots. It is also well supported during major sporting events, especially those being rugby, golf and horse racing.
The level of trade could undoubtedly be increased by an owner operator couple who are able to commit all their attention to developing the business.
