The Rainbow Inn, a historic country pub in East Sussex, is searching for new owners through Christie & Co.
Located in the village of Cooksbridge, north of Lewes on the A275, it was sold by celebrity-chef Marco Pierre White to the current owners in 2014.
The restaurant is split into two large sections, catering for 70 covers, in a room with an open fire. One part of the restaurant opens via patio doors to a large walled garden with seating for 150 covers.
James Hughes, Business Agent at Christie & Co’s Maidstone office who is handling the sale, commented, “The Rainbow Inn possesses a lot of character and is ideally located for both passing trade as well as local custom – it is only a 20 minute drive from Brighton and Hove.
“East Sussex is increasingly becoming a favourable destination amongst potential suitors to run a pub so we expect a lot of interest in the business.
“The Rainbow Inn would be ideal for someone wishing to take over a successful operation, whether they are experienced or a first-time buyer, with room to develop it further and for them to make it their own.”
Christie & Co is seeking offers of £99,950 for the leasehold interest with an annual rent of £50,000.
