This Business Partnership opportunity is available January 2025 Situated in stunning heathland at the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, the Halfway Inn is the meet point between the historic market town of Wareham, and William the Conqueror’s Corfe Castle. The pub is perfectly positioned amongst a multitude of beautiful, local rural attractions including Corfe Castle, the Blue Pool, Studland National Reserve and the Jurassic Coast. Popular with Nordic walkers, ramblers, cyclists and dog-walkers, the surrounding picturesque countryside offers an array of walking and cycling routes. There are plenty of activities within driving distance, including Monkey World, Dorset Water Park and Swanage Railway, which are all popular favourites with visitors and families. This is a great opportunity. Could this be the pub for you? The pub itself dates back to the 16th century and was originally used as a thatched-roof farmhouse. With a large car park, secluded garden, spacious terrace and a lovely children’s play area, the Halfway is perfect for drinks, lunch or dinner. The pub is in close proximity to several campsites and during the summer, the children’s play area and large outdoor seating area is perfect for keeping the family entertained. Inside, it has a cosy and traditional feel with characterful nooks and crannies, a wood burner and many original features including wattle and daub walls and flagstone floors. The Halfway Inn is currently closed and is available early January 2025. It is a perfect opportunity for an experienced operator to run a high volume business in a beautiful location. This is also a home in great condition with two large bedrooms, one small bedroom, a bathroom, two toilets, a private kitchen and a large living room.
