While it has previously been let out, it can be used on a private basis or ‘smaller owner’s flat with additional letting bedroom potential.’
RightBiz adds: “The Happy Valley Hotel occupies a central point at the heart of the town – a great trading location to capture passing trade as well as to serve the local community.
“The property is fully detached with accommodation over ground and first floor. The public bar is located on the ground floor, while owners flat/letting accommodation is located on the first floor. The takeaway unit is situated on the ground floor with main entry to the left of the public house entrance.
“The opportunity would represent as an excellent hands-on trading opportunity or alternatively the business could be an excellent let or part letting opportunity for a hands-off owner. Based on historic rents received, an investor could easily rent the units for more than £55,000 per annum. The business is available on a vacant possession basis from February 2025.”
