Features and description
The highly desirable residential rural village of Mamble stands just off the main A456 trunk road between Bewdley and Tenbury Wells, each approximately 7 miles distant. Kidderminster is approximately 11 miles, Birmingham 27 miles and Junction 3 of the M6 motorway approximately 24 miles distant.
The Sun & Slipper is a delightful period property, Grade ll listed, in an excellent setting at the village centre facing the village green. The premises stand detached in an elevated position. The property is appointed to a high standard and still retains a wealth of character features including exposed beams and brickwork.
The property was extensively refurbished during the 2020 lockdown, the quality of which will be evident to all who view. The property is briefly described as follows:
Trade areas
Main entrance vestibule off the car park, double doors to inner hallway, ladies’ and gentlemen’s toilets.
Lounge bar an attractive room with part boarded and part carpeted floor, beamed ceiling. It has part tongue and groove panelled and part exposed antique brick walls and a feature open fireplace with antique brick surround. There is a fully equipped bar servery with panelled frontage and display back fitting. The feature of the room is a bay window to the front. There is assorted seating for over 20 customers.
The restaurant is an extremely well appointed room and laid for up to 42 covers. Fireplace with cast iron solid fuel burner installed. The room has heavily beamed walls and ceiling, is carpeted, has high back dining chairs and assorted tables. Well fitted central bar servery with hardwood counters, glass washer, ice maker and coded till.
Catering kitchen, with a comprehensive selection of stainless steel catering effects and work surfaces. Access to ‘walk in’ coldroom.
First floor
Staircase to further restaurant, in two sections with central archway, comfortable lounge area and restaurant section to seat 30.
Owners accommodation
Excellent private lounge with exposed beams, feature fireplace with ornamental stove, adjoining modern fitted galley style kitchen. Modern high quality fitted bathroom with vanity basin, WC and large corner entry shower with mixer unit.
The second floor comprises three bedrooms. Bedroom 1, double with sloping ceilings, exposed beams and adjoining fitted dressing room with walk in wardrobe. Bedroom 2, double and bedroom 3, single. Bathroom fitted to a high standard with stone tiled walls and marble tiled floor, antique style bath with tap shower over, basin, bidet and WC. Store cupboards.
Basement cellar with general storage area with sink and on level delivery access from the side road. Main cellar with temperature controlled system, wines and spirits store.
External
Attractive enclosed trade garden with direct access to the main entrance which is on the side of the property. This area is part patioed and has part Astroturf base and rattan garden seating for 30 customers. Enclosed lawned private garden area to the rear. Lined tarmacadamed car park with space for 26 vehicles.
Our clients have operated the Sun & Slipper since 1994 and the property is now on the market as they wish to retire. During their 30+ years of ownership, they have established an enviable reputation at the Sun & Slipper, but would probably admit that over recent years it has not been promoted as highly as it should have been. Indeed, the property is closed after Sunday lunch service until Wednesday, and the first floor restaurant/function room is not currently in use despite being extremely well appointed and ready to operate.
Accounts for the year ending October 2023 show takings net of VAT of £214,383 and a gross profit of 67%.
Prospective purchasers will see the undoubted potential to develop this trade further with a full extension of the trading hours and possibly executing the planning permission to construct the letting bedrooms.
Planning permission
Our clients obtained planning permission in February 2022 for an extension to the property creating new toilets, kitchen, extension to the restaurant and, at first floor, seven en suite letting bedrooms.
