The Cotswold Hospitality Group has announced that it has acquired The Lamb Inn, a gastropub in Witney, Oxfordshire, off an asking price of £695,000 for the freehold.
The 18th Century pub and restaurant had previously been owned by experienced operators Sebastian and Lana Snow.
The Snows said: “We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved at The Lamb Inn. It has been a wonderful journey, and we are grateful for the support of our loyal customers and the community. We wish the new owners every success and are confident they will continue to uphold the pub’s excellent reputation.”
Scott Leadbetter, who will be leading the operational side, added: “We are thrilled to take over The Lamb Inn, a pub with such a rich history and strong reputation. Our vision is to create a collection of unique and charming pubs across the Cotswolds, each offering exceptional food, drink, and hospitality. We look forward to preserving the traditional charm of The Lamb Inn while introducing new and exciting elements to enhance the experience for our guests.”
The Cotswold Hospitality Group owns a collection of seven hotels in Cotswolds including The Bay Tree, The Manor House, The Close, The Hare and Hounds, The Bear of Rodborough and The Swan.
Tim Widdows, associate director at Christie and Co who managed the sale process, said: “We are delighted to have facilitated the sale of The Lamb Inn to such passionate and experienced new owners.
