Property details
Located on the outskirts of Sevenoaks in the rural village of Knockholt, the Harrow Inn is every inch a community-led pub, with the locals at the very heart of everything that it does.
Adjacent to the Kent border with Greater London and with great links into the city, Knockholt is the highest village in Kent, situated just five miles north west of Sevenoaks and six miles south of Orpington. Set within an ‘area of outstanding natural beauty’, it is an affluent, residential village boasting a hilly location at the top of the dip slope of the North Downs. Set amongst gorgeous fields and farmland with lots of walking routes, Knockholt is a popular spot for visitors, ramblers and nature enthusiasts, whilst being home to a thriving village community with over one thousand residents and several local businesses.
Internally at the Harrow, you will find a U-shaped trade area with a feature servery and relaxed drinking space for approx 20 covers, together with a private restaurant dining room featuring high ceilings and beams for 40 covers, which can also double up as a private event space. Although not currently utilised, there is also a small galley-style trade kitchen available.
To the rear of the property, you will find a patio and grassed garden for approx.30 covers with a comfortable smoking area, and it boasts a large, private customer car park directly opposite the street for approx.25 cars.
The private accommodation is set out on the first floor of the property and includes three doubles and one single bedroom, a lounge, bathroom, office, small private garden and tenant car parking.

The Harrow Inn is a wet-led operation that is truly loved by its locals. Over the years, the pub has developed a strong, loyal following in the area and now recognised as the hub of the village. It provides its customers, both old and new, with a warm and friendly welcome and bundles of community spirit. It has been the go-to spot for quiz nights, music, entertainment, a bite to eat, or just a laid-back pint and catching up with friends.
Available from August 2026 on a traditional tenancy agreement, the Harrow Inn is ideal for a hands-on, community-minded operator that is ready to roll up their sleeves and bring this well-loved village local back to its full potential. It provides incoming applicants the opportunity to reintroduce a straightforward, traditional pub food offer; build a calendar of community events (quizzes, live music, themed nights, and seasonal celebrations), and to nurture Harrow’s position as the village hub.
