Upton is a beautiful South Oxfordshire village in the Vale of the White Horse close to the Berkshire border. The George and Dragon itself commands a high-profile location on the busy Oxfordshire/Berkshire link road, the A417. This location along with the already impressive reputation and great facilities ensures that the business remains busy seven days a week across all trading sessions.
Pub Layout
The George and Dragon is a bustling, profitable country pub that is very highly regarded locally and is ready to be taken to the next level. There is plenty to work with, including two distinct internal trading areas, one of which is a more traditional public bar area with both bar seating and tables and a more formal restaurant area with a fabulous log burner as its centrepiece. Externally there is ample car parking for over 20 cars and a covered patio area that is fully furnished with heating and lighting. However, the real winner here is the large stunning gardens which are hugely popular in the spring and summer months and benefit from impressive kids play equipment and a considerable amount of seating. The kitchen is well equipped and is in excellent condition. All the fixtures and fittings are of the highest standard, and internally all areas of the pub are in good order.
The private accommodation is in excellent condition and consists of three bedrooms, a kitchen area, lounge and family bathroom.
