Property details
The Grapes is located in the charming market town of Melksham, Wiltshire, and has a population of around 30,000, and is well connected by road and rail. The A350 runs through the town, providing North-South road links, and it is also on the TransWilts rail line. The Grapes has a history intertwined with the town's oldest buildings and brewing heritage. It's been part of the town's fabric for a long time; it's believed that the Grapes used to be used as a courthouse and magistrates' meeting rooms, and dates back to around 1839. Melksham offers a variety of amenities, including shops, bars & restaurants, and schools.
The pub underwent a full refurbishment in late 2023 and has been maintained to a high standard ever since. Conveniently located just off the town’s high street, the pub welcomes you into a bright, open-plan bar area. There is a spacious bar servery with a mix of fixed and loose seating on either side. Multiple TV screens throughout the pub provide the perfect spot to catch all the live sporting action. For those seeking a more relaxed experience, there are also booth-style seating areas ideal for quieter drinks. Towards the rear of the pub, you’ll find a dedicated darts area, complete with an oche, poseur tables, and stools—perfect for friendly competition.
From here, guests can access the outdoor courtyard, a fantastic space for sunny days with ample seating and a covered section to enjoy the outdoors, whatever the weather.
The private accommodation comprises two bedrooms, a large living room which has been used as an additional bedroom where needed, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
