Victorian coaching inn dating from c.1850 with historic character
Seven bedrooms (3 letting en suites, 4-bed owners' accommodation)
Bright bar and dining room with enclosed beer garden and parking
Lower-ground commercial kitchen, larder, wine store and cellars
Scope for a building plot on garden ground, subject to planning
Rural Ettrick Valley location — remote with limited passing trade
Very deprived local area; mobile signal average though broadband fast
Freehold; guide price £250,000; maintenance/renovation likely required
An attractive Victorian coaching inn in the Ettrick Valley presented as a mixed commercial/residential opportunity. The Tushielaw Inn offers a bright bar and dining room, three ensuite letting bedrooms, a well-equipped lower-ground commercial kitchen and separate owners’ accommodation with four bedrooms. The property benefits from rural views, an enclosed beer garden, off-street parking and freehold title.
This is a clear investor opportunity: the building has been upgraded in recent years and can continue as a letting inn or be adapted to residential use (subject to consents). There is scope, subject to planning permission, to create a building plot on the garden ground, which could add value if permissions are obtained. Broadband speeds are reported as fast, supporting online bookings and remote management.
Buyers should note material constraints. The inn sits in a remote, very deprived area which may limit passing trade and footfall compared with more accessible locations. Mobile signal is only average. Any change of use, conversion or creation of a building plot will require relevant planning permissions and costs. The property’s age (circa 1850) means maintenance and sympathetic upgrades may be needed to preserve historic fabric and comply with regulations.
Offered at a guide price of £250,000, the Tushielaw Inn suits purchasers seeking a countryside investment, a small operator wanting owner-accommodation on site, or a developer able to manage planning and renovation. Viewings are recommended to assess the commercial layout, accommodation condition and development potential firsthand.
