For those interested in heritage travel, Bedale boasts its own railway station, Bedale Station, part of the Wensleydale Railway. This heritage railway offers limited services connecting the town to other charming destinations in the area. Whether you're exploring the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales or simply strolling through the town's welcoming streets, Bedale offers a memorable experience for all.
Upon entering the pub, you are welcomed by the bar area, which serves as the central focal point of the space. To the right, there is a small seating area with an inviting open fire, accompanied by a raised section featuring a darts board. To the left of the entrance, a cosy seating area overlooks the main bar and leads down a few steps to the pool area. This space also offers access to the toilets, the catering kitchen, and the outdoor area. The interior is a blend of wooden and stone flooring, complemented by exposed brick walls and low-beamed ceilings, which enhance the rustic charm of the pub. The bar itself is a standout feature, with its traditional dark wood design and an exposed brick front, exuding character and warmth.
Additionally, the pub offers four letting rooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. The rooms include two doubles, one twin, and one king-sized room. Guests can access the rooms either through the pub during opening hours or via a separate entrance once the pub has closed.
The outdoor area is divided between stone-paved and grassed sections, with a small smoking solution and benches scattered across the grassed area, providing a relaxing spot for guests to unwind.
The private accommodation consists of two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
Currently, the pub is trading as a wet-led establishment, offering a wide range of drinks but no food service at this time. It is a popular venue for local groups, regularly hosting game days and occasional karaoke nights, providing a lively and welcoming atmosphere for visitors.
The landlords are seeking a dynamic and engaged licensee who can fully capitalise on the multiple income streams available at the pub. Local knowledge or familiarity with the area would be advantageous, as it would help the licensee connect with the community. The ideal candidate should be proactive in promoting the pub and getting involved in local events, such as participating in community festivals, supporting local charities, and organising special-themed nights to attract customers. A solid understanding of marketing and social media is essential to effectively promote the letting rooms, and pub events and foster a strong sense of community. By combining a community-first approach with engaging activities and a robust online presence, the licensee will ensure the pub remains a key player in the local social scene, attracting both regulars and newcomers. To further enhance the social atmosphere, the licensee could also introduce darts and dominoe teams during the winter months, encouraging camaraderie among locals. Additionally, a solid understanding of catering is crucial for maximising the pub’s potential. The licensee should offer traditional pub food offer or explore new culinary trends, creating a menu that appeals to the clientele and enhances the overall dining experience. This is an exciting opportunity to take the reins of a thriving pub, enhance its offerings, and contribute to its growth within the local community.
