Solicitors for buying a pub

If you are looking to appoint a solicitor for buying a pub, then our team is here to help. 

Our commercial property team led by Emma Napper is highly experienced in buying and selling pubs.

One of our latest transactions is The Royal Oak Inn at Withypool, in Somerset, which we recently acquired on behalf of its new owners.

The Royal Oak Inn is a traditional pub located in the heart of Exmoor. Dating from the eighteenth century, the pub makes an ideal base from which to enjoy the surrounding countryside. It serves food all day, every day, with a fantastic roast on Sundays, and has eight rooms available for guest accommodation.

As well as being AA 4* rated, the business has won a number of awards and accolades, including a Travellers’ Choice award from Tripadvisor and a nomination for Best Destination Pub by Muddy Stilettos.

The Royal Oak Inn has also featured in the Daily Telegraph’s guide to the perfect pub walks in Exmoor, and the Daily Mail’s official guide for the best pubs to visit after walks across the UK.

But it isn’t only two-legged customers that are catered for. The pub takes special care of its canine guests, offering a full doggy snack and dinner menu that includes speciality popcorn, crisps, and Woof Dog Beer. It’s no wonder the establishment is regarded as one of the most dog-friendly pubs in the South West.

Commenting on the acquisition, the solicitor who led the transaction said:

“I am delighted to have acted in the purchase of The Royal Oak Inn at Withypool, and am sure that the business will go from strength to strength in the hands of its new owners. I wish them every success going forward.”
