LOCATION
Ilfracombe has long been established as a thriving seaside resort, thanks to its sandy beach, wide range of accommodation and amenities. In recent years it has attracted a more diverse crowd too, including those who come to visit its Michelin-starred restaurant and see artist Damien Hirst’s installation ‘Verity’ that dominates the otherwise traditional harbour. Ilfracombe’s resident population of over 11,000 makes it one of North Devon’s larger towns, and there are solid plans for ongoing development including an additional 1,500k houses and possible marina. Good road and bus services connect Ilfracombe to Barnstaple (12 miles), Woolacombe (6 miles), Combe Martin (5 miles), Croyde (9 miles), Braunton (7 miles), Bideford (22 miles) and South Molton (24 miles).
THE SITUATION
The premises are situated ‘on the level’ at the bottom of Fore Street being the entrance to the café / restaurant quarter with a number of assorted leisure and retail operators close by.

The ground floor area has a prominent return frontage onto Fore Street and Broad Street, with previous operators having a pavement licence for 8 tables and 22 chairs.
