Property details
The Buckingham Arms occupies a prominent position at the top of the main road linking Leighton Buzzard to Linslade, making it highly visible and easily accessible. This traditional 19th-century pub is full of character, featuring classic double-fronted bay windows that reflect its historic charm. Just one mile from Leighton Buzzard’s vibrant market town centre, and only 350 yards from the mainline train station with fast services to London Euston in just 30 minutes, the pub is ideally located for both locals and commuters. Surrounded by established residential neighbourhoods, it also sits at the heart of a rapidly expanding area with over 10,000 new homes recently built or under development, attracting a growing population of young families and professionals. With its strong location and timeless appeal, The Buckingham Arms is well placed to thrive in this dynamic and fast-growing community.
The main entrance to The Buckingham Arms sits proudly between two large bay windows, leading directly into the inviting main bar area. Here, guests are greeted by a beautiful Victorian-style servery, complemented by a mix of high and low-level seating that creates a warm and relaxed atmosphere. Convenient access to both ladies’ and gents’ facilities is available from this space. Heading past the bar to the right, and through the side entrance, you'll find a spacious sports lounge at the rear of the pub. Designed for more lively gatherings, this area features a pool table, dartboard, juke box, and multiple TVs that regularly screen live sports. The lounge also offers a mix of fixed and casual seating, as well as separate access to additional ladies’ and shared gents’ facilities.
Outside, the pub boasts a good-sized rear car park with space for around 12 vehicles, while the charming front courtyard terrace complete with bench seating and original railings offers an ideal al fresco spot.
The private accommodation consists of a living room, two double bedrooms, a large bathroom, a domestic kitchen, an office, and a private garage.

The Buckingham Arms is a classic, wet-led community pub, well supported by residents and known for its friendly atmosphere, quality drinks, and midweek team nights. With darts, pool teams, and a history of lively weekly events, it’s long been a favourite local spot, especially for watching live sport on Sky and TNT Sports. The pub benefits from two separate bar areas, allowing for a cosy front bar and a spacious rear lounge that can host around 60 people for sports fixtures or private events. Popular for its real ales, the Buckingham has regularly offered a rotating selection of three hand-pulled cask ales, alongside modern draught lagers, premium spirits, and quality wines, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Outside, the enclosed courtyard terrace offers a relaxed, sociable space perfect for unwinding after work or catching up with friends in the heart of this commuter-friendly town.
The pub presents an exciting opportunity for an experienced licensee or passionate couple ready to take on a new challenge. With an extensive internal refurbishment planned, the landlords are investing heavily in the pub and seek a tenant with drive, ambition, and vision to match. This is an opportunity to build a profitable, community-focused business with a strong local appeal. Support is readily available, but success will rely on your passion for the trade, customer-friendly approach, and commercial awareness. Rebuilding the pub’s social media presence will also be key to attracting new customers and re-establishing its place in the local scene. With the right energy and commitment, The Buckingham Arms can thrive once again.
