The owner has laid the groundwork establishing a thriving business which is popular with a good mix of local French, expats, both English and Dutch and holiday makers drawing customers from a wide area. Outside catering is well established for weddings etc. Additionally the business benefits from owning a full on Class 4 full alcohol licence and grocery licence, giving it the sole village trading rights as a bar/restaurant and grocery, the latter being an obvious avenue for future expansion.<br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/tgqJ3Qaz7j-aT20lk5T2jPtLlZDyRNHj?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcbbc/1/94/Sae0b08U5D-QbzbI_xDKyn0Sms0ujE9n.jpg" border="0" alt="100 0416" title="100 0416" /></a><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/GI7XgdExvz-fS-ScnuOt3CthJ2QRwBKW?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc40/1/216/HnaLEYbC2T-gBPxPKXNY-1uUHFaA_n0M.jpg" border="0" alt="decked front from house side" title="decked front from house side" /></a><br /><br /><div><br />The business areas have been renovated to an excellent, professional standard.

One of these rooms is currently set up as a store – room, the other is used as an overflow area from the bar. It is used for meetings and has a large wood burner, (cosy for the winter). There is also a separate utility room and second storage area. Upstairs a mahogany staircase leads on to a central study area, two double bedrooms, one with marble fireplace, and a recently installed modern bathroom, all with solid oak hardwood floors. Capitalising on the sizable insulated attic in addition to the entire extra 1st floor above the restaurant space presents a great opportunity for a further two bedrooms and spacious bathrooms for bed and breakfast, once renovated.<br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/-yCSdMH24T-sl3cgVOSXtx__YtHDbA4S?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc47/1/57/cdW2LISJ5z84P4Dfvf-nBVELERmm_TMy.jpg" border="0" alt="IMGP0009tic" title="IMGP0009tic" /></a><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/YJXgOkHBkT9Zxwyk7wK_chlNx50pZaBH?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc42/1/231/T7oYhN1Z6z82aFYxkmFi-y4nfSAXSa-9.jpg" border="0" alt="double bedroom overlooking garden sept 09" title="double bedroom overlooking garden sept 09" /></a><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/8XhbVLAz5T-8l5X8GMDMVh4fKZc8wt61?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc39/1/21/iloABicI7z8ruT_gWSxStym4gHPqdwFm.jpg" border="0" alt="100 0901" title="100 0901" /></a><br /><br /><br />The property benefits from mains drainage (installed 2008) and has been fully re-wired and electric radiators installed throughout.<br /><br />The Charentais stone walled garden at the back of the property is very private and has plenty of space ,whilst the sunny decked area at the front of the property, lends itself to alfresco dining (seating 20) ,alongside the village well. Across the street is the bakery (which currently supplies the restaurant) and post office and hairdressers. The village primary school and mayor’s office are all within easy walking distance. There are also communal tennis courts and football pitches close by.<br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/gGLKsHBU0j9DLTi-Et_lFA4NbbIXqx8p?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc28/1/129/YFkh9UP3tj9pTmd1tDZbMx7s3TWQwqiM.jpg" border="0" alt="100 0431" title="100 0431" /></a><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/Yh0PkkUM0D-b5IYpX82eV2fNLN6lv-I9?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcbf2/1/108/UYGYGnVw4T_M6vIN8btltGf7VrZy1cWv.jpg" border="0" alt="100 0429" title="100 0429" /></a><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.slide.com/s/NouzGiI61D_b90HtMErpl3NG2hUFWMUZ?referrer=hlnk"><img src="http://widget.slide.com/rdr/1/1/2/S/161dcc4a/1/199/NLWzvClzxT9QYKwSUZAm6mH8g6Xykwu5.jpg" border="0" alt="R2367 (11) tic" title="R2367 (11) tic" /></a><br /><br />Local markets at <a href="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?client=safari&oe=UTF-8&ie=UTF8&q=ruffec&fb=1&gl=uk&hq=ruffec&hnear=Ruffec,+France&hl=en&view=map&cid=7453058933381684836&ved=0CBkQpQY&ei=oLaXS5SxBaWQjAfm19H6AQ&ll=46.031296,0.197754&spn=2.105179,4.987793&z=8">Ruffec</a> and <a href="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=champagne+mouton&sll=46.031296,0.197754&sspn=2.105179,4.987793&gl=uk&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Champagne-Mouton,+Charente,+Poitou-Charentes,+France&ll=45.989329,0.411987&spn=2.106776,4.987793&z=8">Champagne Mouton</a> are ideal sources for the freshest ingredients.
