A unique Pub Tenancy Opportunity - Exceptional Tenant(s) sought for our community owned pub

An exciting opportunity has recently come available to take on the tenancy of a rural village community owned pub at Cocking, a village in the South Downs National Park, West Sussex. The Blue Bell's management committee is offering a 5-Year Tenancy (free of tie) with the opportunity to extend by mutual agreement. This is a well-established country pub in the centre of Cocking, a beautiful village in the heart of the South Downs National Park. It was saved from development into flats back in 2019 when it was purchased by the local community. It comprises a bar snug area, a dining area with space for 40 covers and three very comfortable en-suite bedrooms for bed and breakfast, plus a self contained one bedroom apartment comprising living room, bedroom and bathroom, for use by the tenant. There is a garden area with seating for outside trade in the warmer months with views over the South Downs, and a community shop in the annex. And there is off street parking for around 15 cars.
