The recently renovated restaurant is set in a large, Grade II listed Georgian property just off Masham’s town square and comprises a contemporary ground floor dining area, private dining room and exceptional living accommodation.

David Cash, Director in Christie & Co’s Hospitality team, who handled the sale, comments, “It is a pleasure to have acted for Jon & Laura in the sale of their business and family home. We always discussed that the most likely buyer would be a couple who could step in to Jon & Laura’s shoes and make the business their own. We are still seeing lots of demand for hospitality businesses, particularly where there the property is freehold.”
