These interesting and exceptionally spacious premises are located in an excellent position in the centre of Corfe Castle, approximately 150m from
the Village Square and Castle Ruins. The original building is thought to date back to 1833, although it has been considerably altered and enlarged
during the ensuing years. It is predominantly constructed of Purbeck stone, with the main roof covered with slate. It has been extensively
refurbished to an exceptionally high standard in recent years and is currently trading as a quality Restaurant/Bistro on the ground floor with 4 Guest
Suites used for bed and breakfast purposes and a 1 bedroomed maisonette. However, it is eminently suitable for conversion back into a substantial
family residence if required. The business operates throughout the year and generates a good income. The restaurant caters for up to 42 covers
and is fully licensed; the website for the business is oliverscorfecastle.co.uk We have been advised by our client that planning permission has now
been granted to form living accommodation on the ground floor, thus giving 6 en-suite bedrooms and a separate 1 bedroomed annexe.
The village of Corfe Castle lies at the centre of the Isle of Purbeck about 5 miles from the seaside resort of Swanage and a similar distance from
the market town of Wareham, the latter having main line rail link to London Waterloo (about 2½ hours). Much of the surrounding area, including
large parts of the village, is owned by the National Trust and are dominated by the old Castle Ruins which attracts over 300,000 visitors a year. It is
also an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
