The Fox & Hounds is a traditional, food-led village pub in Thorpe Audlin, offering an exciting opportunity for a visionary tenant looking to run a pub in West Yorkshire. Set in a peaceful semi-rural location, this recently refurbished pub combines classic character with modern comfort, making it a popular choice for locals, walkers, and destination diners alike.
The pub features a spacious L-shaped trading area ideal for dining and casual drinking, complemented by a large conservatory that provides bright, flexible seating throughout the year. Outside, a standout beer garden and decked patio offer open countryside views, creating a real draw for guests during the warmer months and positioning the pub as a true destination food pub.
With ample on-site parking and a layout perfectly suited to a strong food offer, The Fox & Hounds has the foundations to thrive as a rural pub tenancy with broad appeal. For the right operator, this is a rare chance to build a successful village pub with food, combining community spirit, countryside charm, and long-term business potential.
They intend to support the successful applicant by improving the pub’s kerb appeal.
Examples of some of the projects they undertake in the pub estate can be found in the Investing in Your Pub Brochure here. A more detailed specification of the intended works for this specific pub will be provided to interested parties during the application process.
The aim is to undertake the works at the expense as soon as practicably possible once the tenancy has commenced.
Private Accommodation
The private accommodation has also recently been refurbished to an excellent standard. Two bedrooms are provided along with an office that could be used as a third bedroom, a lounge and a kitchen.
