18th century Northumberland inn brought to market by Fleurets

A historic listed property in Northumberland is set to change hands as it is brought to market by the Yorkshire office of a leisure property specialist.

The Grade II listed Red Lion Inn in Milfield has been brought to market by the Leeds office of Fleurets after owners and pub veterans Iain & Claire Burn decided to sell.

Situated between Morpeth and Coldstream, the country village inn dates back to the 18th century, comprising bars, dining areas and bedrooms.

The news follows the recently granted planning permission for a new residential development in the village.

Nick Thomas of Fleurets commented: “The Red Lion Inn is an established and profitable business with a broad base of trade.

“During their ownership, the Burns’ have developed the Red Lion into a successful all-round country inn, which involved the building of a detached block of four letting bedrooms coming on stream in 2015.”
