The Bluebell Inn in Helpston is a jewel in the Helpston crown and has been a focal point in the John Clare countryside since the 1700’s.
The Bluebell boasts all the charm you'd expect from a village inn with oodles of quirky character thrown in and an old-fashioned belief that a pub should have a social heart and be flowing with drinks and great food served by people who care.
The premises include a Grade II listed two story main building, several single storey outbuildings, a large car park, an outdoor enclosed patio area at the rear of the property and a prominent walled patio area at the front of the pub. There are additional pockets of space around the property, one of which would lend itself well to be used as the pub’s own herb/vegetable garden. The buildings are all constructed from attractive natural stone.
The ground floor of the main building includes the main bar area, a front bar area and a restaurant area. The pub can provide about 120 covers in total, split over the restaurant (40), the front bar area (20), the main bar area (20) and the outdoor patio areas (40). The front bar area is provided with two operational open fireplaces.
The ground floor is further provided with a fully equipped commercial kitchen and the various storage areas. Above the kitchen is a loft area that can be converted into an attractive feature such as an in-house gin distillery or the like.
The first floor of the main property provides living accommodation including 2 double bedrooms (of which 1 ensuite), a dining room, kitchen, study and an additional bathroom.
The outbuildings house the 4 B&B guestrooms.
The Bluebell is the sole pub in Helpston which is a very lively and active village with a growing young population. Helpston houses the John Clare Primary School which is very popular with young families and many move to Helpston for the schools. The next village up has a highly rated secondary school that is easily accessible by bicycle for students from Helpston.
After a period of being operated by tenants, the owner has taken full control in 2023 and has managed to bring back the pub to its former glory and returned it to being the beating heart in the centre of this popular, growing and lively village.
For sale is the business including the freehold.
