FREE OF TIE FOOD LED PUB in Keighley for Sale.

A fantastic opportunity to acquire this award-winning free-of-tie food pub, beautifully nestled amongst the rolling hills, dry-stone walls, heather moorland, and dramatic scenery of Bronte Country. Occupying a unique position between Haworth and Hebden Bridge, the inn sits at the crossroads of Bronte Country, Calderdale, and the wider Yorkshire visitor region.

The property enjoys stunning panoramic countryside views across the Southern Pennines towards Ilkley Moor and the surrounding Yorkshire landscape. Rich in wildlife, the area is renowned for its birds of prey, grazing sheep, heather-covered moors, and seasonal bilberry-covered hillsides, creating an exceptional setting that attracts visitors throughout the year.

Ideally located for walkers, cyclists, tourists, and literary enthusiasts, the property is close to Top Withens, the landscape famously associated with Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights, together with the many attractions of Haworth, Hebden Bridge, and the Worth Valley Railway. The location offers excellent year-round trade opportunities and is firmly established as a popular destination within one of Yorkshire’s most visited tourism regions.

The business is competitively priced for a quick sale due to the owner’s desire to pursue a career within his chosen field of expertise. Current weekly turnover averages approximately £3,000, presenting excellent opportunities for further growth.

The public house offers a wealth of traditional character and charm, featuring a welcoming bar area and three separate dining areas. During the winter months, customers can enjoy the cosy atmosphere created by traditional log fires. Supporting the trading operation is a well-equipped commercial kitchen, separate pot wash area, storeroom with excellent refrigeration facilities, and ladies’ and gentlemen’s WC facilities.

The private owner’s accommodation is spacious and well presented, accessed both internally from the pub and independently via its own external entrance. The accommodation comprises a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and three double bedrooms. To the rear of the property is a delightful private garden featuring a Victorian box spring and ornamental pond.

Further enhancing the income potential is a self-contained Airbnb letting suite situated on the gable end of the property. This accommodation comprises a living room with kitchenette, double bedroom with Velux windows, and a shower room with WC, providing an established source of additional revenue.

Within the grounds is a detached lodge currently utilised as a home office and summer house. Subject to any necessary consents, this building could readily be converted into a further holiday-let unit, offering significant scope to increase accommodation income and maximise the property’s earning potential.

The premises occupy a generous plot extending to over 0.75 acres, incorporating a large customer car park and further space suitable for additional development, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions.
