3 Bed Pub For Sale

LOCATION



Sherborne, it is said, is one of the most beautiful towns in England.



This Medieval and mellow-stoned Dorset town has a reputation for art, antiques, world famous schools and sits on the edge of the River Yeo.



As a consequence, visitors from all over the world come to the town which has a resident population of well over 10,000, who also provide a regular local trade.



Among Sherborne's many historic buildings are Sherborne Abbey, its manor house and independent schools.



The White Hart is situated at the northern end of Cheap Street and is close to the junction of the A30.



Cheap Street is effectively Sherborne's main high street, occupied by a number of independent and nationally recognised retailers.
