Location
Hackforth is a small village in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, just 4 miles north of Bedale and junction 51 on the A1(M). Surrounded by holiday parks, affluent villages, country walks and tourist attractions, this busy pub enjoys a roaring trade from locals and tourists alike. The area is popular with local shoots and once a year there is the annual point-to-point which is held in the grounds of the nearby Hornby Castle, where there is also a deer park. Catterick Racecourse is a short distance away, as is the historic town of Richmond.
The pub is in an ideal position and ripe for a new owner to take advantage of the recent population growth and thriving tourist trade.

TRADE AREAS
GROUND FLOOR:
The main entrance off the car park opens to an ‘L’ shaped corridor. To the left is the main LOUNGE BAR; to the right is the former RESIDENTS’ LOUNGE which doubles as an office and storeroom/lounge for the owner (this room would also convert to a ground floor, easy access en suite bedroom).

There are two dining rooms at either end of the corridor. One can seat approximately 20 and doubles as a breakfast room, the other restaurant has a lovely flagstone floor and can seat approximately 36. The latter is next to the CATERING KITCHEN. The corridor between has LADIES’ and GENTLEMEN’S TOILET FACILITIES and access to the CELLAR.
