The pub, which first opened in 1959, was purchased by its current owner in 2024. Following the acquisition, the owner undertook a programme of refurbishment works to modernise the premises while retaining its character as a traditional community pub, ahead of appointing a new tenant.

The upgraded venue offers bar, dining and function spaces, along with external seating, customer parking and on-site accommodation.

The new tenant is expected to relaunch the venue as a bar and restaurant, bringing the building back into active use following its closure in 2023.

Marslie McGregor, Senior Business Agent at Christie & Co, who handled the letting, said, “The Hylton Castle Arms is a landmark pub with strong ties to the local community. Since purchasing the property in 2024, the owner has invested in refurbishing the site to create a strong platform for reopening.

“We saw a high level of interest from operators keen to take on a well-positioned, refurbished pub, and we are delighted to have secured a new tenant who will bring the business back to life for local residents.”
