Evesham hotel and pub for sale

A hotel and pub located in Evesham have been put up for sale after nine years in the hands of the current landlord.

The Railway Hotel, located on the high street, is being sold by Stuart Aitchison and is on the market for £35,000 for its leasehold.

Mr Aitchison told the Tewkesbury Admag that the hotel has been on and off the market several times over the past year. He is looking to sell the property due to the current economic climate: “Like all other pubs at the moment we cannot make any money from it.”

These difficult trading conditions are also the reason for the very low price of the pub and hotel and, as the landlord told the paper, the price is so low that even “the fixtures and fittings would cost more than that”.

In the meantime, the Battle of the Bands competition, which has been a popular event, will continue at the venue.

In addition to the pub, the sale includes 20 car parking spaces, four self-contained flats, six letting bedrooms and a three-bedroom owner's flat. Its sale is being handled by the Birmingham office of Christie + Co.
