Wadworth acquires historic Beckford Inn

By James Russell: Wadworth acquires historic Beckford Inn

May 19, 2015

The beautiful and historic Beckford Inn & Restaurant has been sold to Wadworth Brewery in a deal brokered by specialist property adviser Christie + Co.

The 18th century coaching inn has been owned and operated by Anthony Mears and his wife Jane since 2009. Under their ownership, the handsome Victorian property underwent extensive refurbishment and earned an enviable reputation for its excellent food (made with fresh local produce) and fine accommodation. The couple will now be returning to Amersham for family reasons.

Founded in 1875, Wadworth is a Wiltshire-based brewer and pub operator with in excess of 240 pubs. Wadworth acquired Beckford Inn for an undisclosed sum in excess of the property’s £1 million guide price.

Nicholas Calfe, Director at Christie + Co’s Bristol office handled the sale. He comments: “We are delighted to have sold Beckford Inn on behalf of Anthony and Jane, and wish them the very best for their future endeavours. The property is an excellent addition to Wadworth’s impressive portfolio and we are delighted to have played a part in their continued expansion.”
