LANDMARK hotel and Grade II listed building The Bear of Rodborough has just come on the market for £3.95m.

The 46-bedroom hotel is believed to date in part back to the 17th century, and has been operating as a coaching inn since the 18th century.

With a three-star rating, it provides a combination of period character and stylish décor.

Colliers International hotels director Peter Brunt said: “Unusually for a Cotswolds hotel, The Bear is not dependent solely upon tourist visitors - although there are plenty of those.

“Business travellers, functions and local trade make up a good mix that ensures a healthy turnover all year round and for a management-run hotel, it can generate an enviable bottom line.”
