We have a highly experienced Leisure and Hospitality team who specialise in the sale and letting of pubs, hotels and holiday parks in the South West. The White Hart Hotel in Moretonhampstead is a prime example of a popular pub with an excellent reputation for food and service, which was coming on the market.
The White Hart is a traditional coaching inn comprising 17 letting bedrooms plus an additional 8 bedrooms in a nearby Mews. It had been owned and managed for ten years, and now was the right time for the owner to sell the business.
There was strong interest and a clear indication that the hospitality sector remains popular for the right sites. We used our extensive database of prospective purchasers and our social media channels to market the pub. The regional media also picked up on the sale, reflecting local interest in popular venues.
Acting for the owner Alison MacGregor, who with her late husband had owned the White Hart for 10 years we had strong levels of interest and the property has been sold to experienced operators who having sold their last venue in 2022 and wanted to get back into the sector.
This was our third Dartmoor transaction in as many months with the sale of the White Hart Hotel in Moretonhampstead. This followed the sale of the Drewe Arms, Drewsteignton in December and the letting of the Royal Oak at Meavy (where we acted for the parish council to find a new tenant).
Our experienced team is ready to assist with unparalleled regional advice.
