Description
17th Century Country Freehouse Only 4 Miles from Exeter. 2 Sets of Owner’s Accommodation (Both Self-Contained).
Situated on a main road in a stunning rural location, the Lamb Inn is situated just 7 miles from Exeter city centre, making this a popular destination pub frequented by locals and tourist alike.
The Lamb Inn is traditionally built of stone and render. The Inn has been tastefully extended retaining many of the original features. The original building is over 200 years old and has been trading since the 1700's.
The property is beautifully presented throughout, with many period features, although will require equipping (kitchen and trade inventory). The business has recently closed due to personal circumstances but provides an excellent opportunity to re-establish trade which has previously been very successful.
