The Fox Inn is snuggled beautifully in a prime location just a short drive from Horsham and within easy reach of Guildford on the A281. The A24 and A29 coast roads are 5 minutes away and the Fox Inn is just 20 minutes from Gatwick Airport.
The Fox is a warm and atmospheric 16th century public house situated amid the glorious countryside of the Surrey\Sussex border. An established destination the picturesque pub oozes charm with its relaxed country retreat atmosphere, comfortable dining area; and beautiful gardens used continuously throughout the summer. The Fox serves a varied menu blending great food and award winning ales, winning a good regular following while also appealing to guests from farther afield.
The Fox Inn offers extensive private accommodation rarely found in public houses, comprising 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, dining area and living area.
The Fox is busiest over the weekend. It currently trades 5 full days a week with drinks only on Monday and Tuesday evening. There is a real opportunity to turn this into a 7 days a week business to grow on an already succsessful reputation. The guest base is viared with seniors, families, destination diners, alongside a strong community led weekday wet trade.
“The pub requires applicants who have a strong background in catering, and who will be able to build on the established reputation of the business. It will require some continuity and a good sense of community to maintain the feel of the pub and its position in the local area. The Fox Inn would be ideally suited to a couple, one of whom is capable of running a busy kitchen”

FMT is the level of turnover and profit that we believe that the business is capable of delivering if being operated competently. The FMT is usually calculated by the Business Development Partner for the pub to rent, who will produce a shadow profit and loss account for the business which supports the rent. A copy of the shadow profit and loss account will be provided during the recruitment process.
Please see our Code of Practice for more information on FMT and rent. The Fair Maintainable Trade is not a guarantee of levels of trade or profit that will be made from the business – we strongly recommend you seek appropriate independent legal and business advice as part of your Business Plan.
The Full Investment Breakdown for each public house is higher than the minimum investment we will accept. This is because potential Business Partners with the minimum investment available can still be accepted as we are able to offer them financial support for the rest of the monies.
The working capital incorporates the purchase of stock, glassware, loose catering effects and valuer fees – please note the number quoted on this website are based on estimates. The exact costs will be determined on the day you take on the public house by independent valuers and stock takers. Please see our Code of Practice for more information about investment.
