4 Location The Barge Inn is situated on the banks of the Kennet & Avon canal in the picturesque hamlet of Honeystreet in the Vale of Pewsey in Wiltshire, approximately 8 miles east of Devizes, 5 miles west of Pewsey and 8 miles south west of Marlborough. The surrounding landscape contains burial mounds, ancient settlements and other sites of archaeological interest. From the canal side beer garden to the front of the pub there are attractive views across open countryside to the Alton Barnes White Horse which is a chalk carving on nearby Milk Hill that faces the pub. The immediate and surrounding area is well known for crop circles which attract large numbers of visitors to the area each year. Description The Barge Inn is a 3-storey Grade II Listed property originally built, we believe, in the early 1800 s. To the front of the pub is the canalside beer garden with bench and table seating and in excess of 35 parking spaces. To the rear of the pub and barn is a camp-site with a new toilet and shower block, that has recently been built for the 2016 season. Our client has also received planning permission to build a small observatory in part of the campsite, further details are available upon request. Adjoining the pub is a substantial newly constructed oak barn, part of which has recently been used as an art space, however in our opinion this open plan space offers potential for a variety of flexible uses (STP). Along with local customers and drive out diners, much of the business comes from boaters, walkers, cyclists, campers, crop circle enthusiasts, day visitors and tourists. An inspection of the property is highly recommended to appreciate it in full including its attractive setting adjoining the canal and the surrounding countryside.

The camp-site is licensed for ten touring caravans and can accommodate approximately 50 tents. The barn has planning consent for uses ancillary to the public house and in our opinion, could be converted to a letting accommodation block with circa 10 en suite rooms, alternatively the barn could suit a variety of other potential uses (STP).
