A SEVENTEENTH Century pub set in the heart of the pretty Dartmoor village of South Tawton is up for sale. The Exeter office of Christie and Co is seeking £70,000 for the leasehold interest in The Seven Stars Inn in the village. The Seven Stars has been completely refurbished and is firmly established as a 'drive-to' inn and restaurant, while retaining the village local atmosphere. The business is operated by Rosemary Drake-Davis, a well known chef-restaurateur who offers an impressive range of traditional country fare using local produce wherever possible — 60% of the turnover is derived from food sales. Dating from the 17th Century, The Seven Stars Inn on Fore Street is a handsome, creeper-clad stone inn comprising a refurbished main bar, 32-cover restaurant, four-bedroom owner's accommodation, patio beer garden and potential for letting rooms. The inn combines the best of traditional features with a touch of modern comfort and contemporary style. Michael Easton of Christie and Co's Exeter office, said: 'This impressive detached freehouse is the only pub in the village and has established an enviable reputation for good food attracting custom from a wide catchment area. Recently refurbished and with a thriving trade, this business represents an ideal acquisition for any leaseholder purchaser.'
