The property provides 75 covers across bar and restaurant areas, alongside an 80-cover beer garden with valley views. It also holds a five-star AA rating with two AA Rosettes for its food.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Cross, the pub\u2019s finance director said: \u201cThe Manor Arms has been a fantastic project for us, and we are incredibly proud of the reputation the team has built for both its food and hospitality. Following a significant programme of refurbishment and investment, the inn is now well-positioned for its next phase, and we believe it offers a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to build on the strong foundations that have been established.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Specialist business property adviser Christie &amp; Co is managing the sale. James Dodd, business agent at Christie &amp; Co said: \u201cThe Manor Arms represents a very exciting opportunity for an operator seeking a turnkey business with significant heritage, character, and ongoing commercial momentum.
