Das Objekt

The Lower Lode Inn offers a rare opportunity to acquire a historic 15th‑century riverside pub set in a picturesque position on the banks of the River Severn, near Tewkesbury. The inn’s setting between the Malvern and Cotswold Hills, combined with its proximity to the town and surrounding countryside, ensures broad appeal across leisure visitors, walkers, boaters and those exploring the wider region. The property benefits from strong seasonal trade, supported by extensive outdoor space including a large riverside beer garden and a lawned riverfront campsite that operates through the warmer months. These features attract high summer footfall, campers, paddleboarders, wild swimmers and visitors arriving by boat, supported further by mooring along the river frontage. The inn also provides five en‑suite guest rooms, offering dependable year‑round accommodation income, alongside a purpose‑built function room licensed for weddings and suitable for celebrations and group gatherings. The ability to combine room bookings with campsite use makes the property particularly attractive for organised events, reunions and rallies. Together, these elements create a well‑rounded operational opportunity. The Lower Lode Inn has strong predictable summer trade and is a versatile hospitality venue with multiple revenue streams which could be expanded. Whilst the current operator, who is selling to retire, does open during the winter season, trade is limited and there and another operator may choose to to close for this period.
