Mug House Inn

Description

The Mug House is a characterful and well‑established riverside inn, holding a prominent and enviable position within the town. Since acquisition, the business has been thoughtfully developed, enhancing both trading flexibility and overall appeal.

Location

The Mug House Inn occupies an exceptional trading position fronting the River Severn in the heart of the historic Georgian town of Bewdley, Worcestershire. Bewdley is a highly regarded tourist destination, attracting strong year‑round visitor numbers due to its riverside setting, heritage architecture and proximity to the Wyre Forest and Severn Valley Railway.

Internal Details

Internally, the Mug House offers a welcoming and traditional trading environment, complemented by a layout that supports both wet‑led and food‑led trade. The emphasis on food has increased significantly under the current ownership and now accounts for approximately 55% of total sales, reflecting changing customer demand and the success of the adapted offering.

Fixtures & Fittings

We have been advised that the majority of the fixtures and fittings are owned outright and will be included in the sale, subject to an inventory.

Letting Accommodation

The property benefits from four well‑appointed en‑suite letting bedrooms, providing valuable additional income from overnight guests in this popular tourist town. In addition, there is a self‑contained one‑bedroom manager’s flat, offering comfortable on‑site accommodation for owner‑occupiers or management.

External Details

A particular highlight of the Mug House is the rear patio area, which has been brilliantly adapted over the last five years to ensure year‑round usability. Along with an ‘outside garden bar’, the external areas significantly enhance the trading potential and contribute to total seating of over 115 covers, maximising revenue during peak seasons and events.

The Opportunity

The Mug House Inn represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a prominent and highly regarded riverside hospitality business in a strong tourist location. In addition to the core operation, and by way of a separate agreement with a separate landlord, the current vendors also have use of the neighbouring property, which provides a further three letting rooms. This offers scope for continued accommodation growth and enhanced overall returns, making the Mug House an attractive proposition for experienced operators or lifestyle buyers alike.

Business Rates

The Rateable Value is £50,000 with effect from April 2023. Confirmation of actual business rates payable should be obtained from the local authority.
