The Royal Oak is a detached building situated in the middle of the historic village of Naseby in the District of Daventry, Northamptonshire. This is a fairly affluent area, surrounded by several rural villages and farmland, but only two miles from the busy A14, offering access to all major motorways. Naseby is less than 15 miles from Northampton, Market Harborough, Kettering, and Althorp House (the family home of the Earl of Spencer and the late Princess Diana). The Royal Oak is currently being run as a real ale and food-led village pub, however, this attractive detached pub needs to grow and attract customers from surrounding villages and the larger towns nearby. There is further potential to attract an older clientele, particularly during the day, as well as tourists visiting surrounding attractions such as Althorp House, Market Harborough, and the Battle of Naseby. The landlords are looking for an enthusiastic licensee or couple to build strong connections with the community and develop this pub from further afield, therefore vision and marketing skills are vital. 

The bar servery is situated in front of you when you enter the pub. There is a main room with seating for around 20 people and bar stools at the bar and to the left of the bar is a snug room that has a Skittles table and dart board and seating for around 10 people. To the rear of the bar is the toilets and kitchen area along with a fridge/freezer room and dish-wash area.

Externally there is an enclosed garden and large car park along with a decent-sized paddock area that could accommodate a marquee for events. There is also a large barn that has been used for beer festivals and has a temporary bar and stillage in there, it also has a log burner that can be used for the colder months and evenings.

The private accommodation is of a good size and provides ample space for a family. The first floor consists of two bedrooms, a large living room/lounge, and a domestic bathroom. The domestic kitchen is situated on the ground floor.
