Escape to the country....
Looking for a quiet, rural village with no passing trade Then STOP reading now. If you are after a beautiful pub, in a fabulous location with plenty of passing trade then read on…
Many people have a dream to escape the drudge of city living but find the countryside a little too quiet for comfort. The Plough at Holford offers the best of both worlds. Set in the Quantock Hills, one of the south wests’ prestigious Areas of Natural Beauty, the pub is just a couple of miles from the stunning Somerset coastline. Situated directly on the A39, there is ample passing trade all year around and the Plough is a firm favourite with the locals.
The pub is in excellent order throughout its’ three trading areas which consist of a locals bar, a dining area and an orangery that seats 35 people. The pub is decorated tastefully throughout and comprises a mixture of loose and fixed seating that can be re-arranged should the new publican wish. The décor creates a warm and cosy atmosphere throughout, with exposed beams, wooden seating and an open fireplace in the diner. There is a well-equipped commercial kitchen that is situated just behind the main bar servery. Throughout the pub there are photos of local interest and interesting features that date back to the pubs’ late history, from around 1555.
To the rear of the property is a stunning courtyard style garden that is a wonderful suntrap during the bustling, summer season.
On the opposite side of the lane, there is a large car park that can hold approximately 25 vehicles.
Private Accommodation
The accommodation is in good order and has three bedrooms.
Two of these rooms (accessed by a off shoot staircase) were historically letting rooms and so have their own bathrooms. This does offer potential for a live-in staff member if required albeit that they can no longer be used for guests.
Turning right as you go upstairs, gives access to the main living area. There is a large open plan kitchen and living room and the master bedroom which has it's own large shower room.
As an added bonus, the accommodation also has it's own external entrance so you don't need to greet your public on your day off!
