Buckfastleigh is a market town in Devon, situated beside the Devon Expressway (A38) at the edge of the Dartmoor National Park. It is 18 miles (29 km) east-northeast of Plymouth, 20 miles (32 km) southwest of Exeter. It is a centre of tourism and is home to Buckfast Abbey and South Devon Railway. Our subject property is situated on the main road into Buckfastleigh, 2 minutes from the A38. This beloved establishment traces its roots back to the 19th Century when it first opened its doors to locals and travellers, originally serving as a coaching inn.

The business is available on the basis of a brand new tenancy agreement with St Austell Brewery. The five year tenancy is protected by the Landlord & Tenant Act (therefore fully renewable) and tenants can give 6 months' notice at any time during the agreement. There will be a wet tie to St Austell Brewery for wet sales products. Annual rent is circa £30,000.
