The Wheatsheaf sits on the historic "Bull Ring" at the centre of this town, once the port at the head of Brading Haven. With a picturesque town centre and boasting the Island's oldest building, Brading attracts tourists and locals alike. Sat on the main arterial road between Ryde and the Sandown-Shanklin-Lake conurbation. The Wheatsheaf is highly visible to passing trade and the easy access and extensive car park makes stopping off an easy decision. Local trade has historically been encouraged by pool and darts teams, giving a grounding to the business throughout the year, which obviously benefits from a seasonal boost from the high influx of tourists during the summer season.
The public areas run to circa 100m² (1,076 ft²) comprising public bar and snug area adjacent. This is supported by ladies and gents facilities, storage, cellar, and large garage. On first floor is the 3-bedroom owners’ flat with combined commercial/domestic kitchen and separately accessed studio apartment, which may well suit Bed and Breakfast or staff accommodation. Please see floor plan for further details.
