The freehold of The Bear Hotel in Wareham, Dorset, has been put up for sale with a guide price of £1.4m.

The Grade II listed former coaching I, which was built in 1852, has been restored by its current owners with many of the original features retained, including the large Georgian windows and wooden panelling. 

The property comprises 11 ensuite bedrooms, a restaurant, bar, function room and a courtyard and staff bedroom. To the rear of the property is a cottage, which provides a development opportunity.

James Greenslade, director, hotel capital markets at Savills, which has been appointed to market the opportunity, said: “This property provides a rare opportunity to purchase the freehold interest in a beautifully restored Grade II listed, 18th century coaching inn situated within the Saxon walled town of Wareham. The cottage to the rear of the property provides an exciting development opportunity and we expect significant interest moving forward.”
