The Fox Hall Inn

Description

The Fox Hall Inn is a brilliant example of a country pub restaurant with beautifully appointed ensuite letting bedrooms. Set in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, the Fox Hall Inn provides a traditional country pub dining experience with luxury, overnight accommodation. The restaurant and several rooms have stunning pastoral views over Holmedale towards Richmond and Swaledale. Situated on a major arterial and tourist route historically, it has been very well used by commuters and holidaymakers alike.

Location

The Fox Hall Inn occupies a prominent main road position adjacent to the A66 connecting Scotch Corner (A1(M) Junction 53) and Penrith, the gateway to the Lake District. The pub is surrounded by a number of affluent and desirable villages, many of which have a number of holiday homes/B&B's There is also a caravan park within 10 minutes walk (one minute's drive) providing a captive audience for food and beverage sales.

Internal Details

The property is in immaculate condition throughout, with the downstairs being refurbished in April/May 2019 and the upstairs in 2018, to an excellent standard. The integral fixtures & fittings remain in situ (bar, booth seating, kitchen equipment etc) and owned by the Landlord. An inventory of loose loose fixtures & fittings will be provided by the exiting tenant. The ground floor trade space is compartmentalised into four main areas: Bar Restaurant Snug Dining Room

Fixtures & Fittings

Owners Accommodation

Whilst there is no staff/owners' accommodation at present, it would be relatively straight forward to reconfigure some of the letting accommodation to create suitable living accommodation.
