The Wheelhouse is an impressive detached Tudor style building with large outside seating area to the front and exceptional owners’ accommodation with fabulous roof terrace, parking and outbuildings to the rear. The ground floor restaurant offers an interior décor in style with the exterior of the building with quality fixtures and fittings providing an inviting and relaxed atmosphere for customers. The patio area provides the perfect location in which to enjoy the world go by sheltered by the canopy of the trees. The current owners operate the restaurant as a ‘Lifestyle’ business choosing to trade Tuesday – Thursday evenings from 5pm, opening for the lunch trade as well as evenings Friday & Saturday 11.30 – 2pm and Sunday Lunch only. The Wheelhouse reduces its trading hours to weekends only over the shoulder months of the year, closing for 6 weeks at the end of December. The spacious 4 double bed residential accommodation is exceptional and must be seen to be truly appreciated. The décor is to the same high stand as the restaurant and benefits from a large roof terrace accessed via the 2nd floor bedroom.
