The Opportunity

The Rose & Crown is a quintessential Cotswold village pub, built from classic Cotswold stone. The pub exudes character with its heavily beamed ceilings, flagstone floors and fireplaces, creating a cosy atmosphere, especially in the winter.

Strategically located just north of Banbury with easy access to the M40, The Rose & Crown is positioned to attract a steady stream of trade. This north-eastern corner of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a delightful part of the world, with picturesque villages.

The area is steeped in history, with the site of the first battle of the English Civil War, Edghill, just to the north of the village. The pub is just 1.7 miles from the popular National Trust property of Upton House which brings further visitors to the area. There are numerous other attractions which include the National Herb Centre, Compton Verney and the Heritage Motor Museum, popular campsites and Airbnb’s nearby. The fast-growing town of Banbury is only 8 miles to the south, while Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick, and Leamington Spa lie to the north, providing a large population within a short distance.

The pub is a popular walking spot, including the Macmillan Way walk, which takes walkers directly past the pub.
