Set within a little over 10 acres in scenic Northumberland, The Boe Rigg is a long-established pub, 60‑seater restaurant and licensed campsite with strong tourist footfall. The operation includes 30 licensed pitches (mix of hard standings and grass, 32 with electric hook-up), two en suite letting rooms and a sizable studio flat — providing immediate trading income and owner accommodation. Sustainable systems (ground source heating, rainwater recycling, solar panels) help reduce running costs while an EPC A rating supports energy credentials.
The building combines contemporary barn-style features — large glazing, high ceilings and open-plan trading spaces — with historic stone construction. Practical ancillary areas include a commercial kitchen, cellar, laundry, customer WCs and shower blocks for campers. The site has strong leisure appeal, located close to Kielder Water & Forest Park and Northumberland National Park, supplying a steady seasonal visitor stream and excellent TripAdvisor performance historically.
Important practical points are straightforward: the opportunity is leasehold with a new minimum 10‑year full repairing and insuring lease at an asking rent of £20,000 per year and upward‑only rent review provisions. Broadband is very slow in the area, and parts of the building are traditional stone walls likely without insulation, so some retrofit/maintenance may be required to optimise winter comfort and reduce fuel use. The campsite is seasonal and there are business rates (Rateable Value £17,500). For an investor or operator seeking an established rural hospitality hub with growth potential, this site offers immediately usable trading accommodation and substantial land for expanded revenue streams.
