We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

Occupying the second floor is a generous self-contained three-bedroom owner's apartment, comprising a spacious lounge, breakfast kitchen, three well-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom.
This private accommodation allows an owner or manager to live comfortably on site while operating the business below, or alternatively provides further letting potential.
Externally, the property benefits from a substantial customer car park providing ample off-road parking together with an attractive outdoor seating area, ideal for al fresco dining and social gatherings.
