The Redesdale Hotel (Leasehold) -  Iconic Central Victorian Destination Pub

Food/Hospitality | Business for Sale | Redesdale

This is a rare chance to acquire a hospitality venue of genuine scale and reputation. The Redesdale Hotel is an iconic bluestone country pub, established in the mid-1850s and proudly positioned on a major regional thoroughfare just 90 minutes from Melbourne and 40 minutes from Bendigo. Rich in history and deeply embedded in the local community, this landmark hotel combines heritage charm with strong, proven trade.

Key Highlights:

  • Landmark bluestone hotel dating back to the 1850s
  • General liquor licence for up to 730 patrons
  • Strong meal trade with lunch and dinner service
  • Seating for 100 inside and 60–80 outside
  • Expansive beer garden with significant event potential
  • Reasonable rent and favourable lease terms
  • Genuine reason for sale

Renowned as a destination venue, the Redesdale Hotel benefits from its proximity to Lake Eppalock, leading wine regions, cycling routes and popular tourist trails, drawing consistent visitation from locals, day-trippers and regional travellers. A strong food offering underpins the business, supported by well-designed indoor and outdoor dining areas and an expansive, inviting beer garden that performs strongly during peak seasons.

A standout feature is the rare general liquor licence for up to 730 patrons, providing exceptional scope for weddings, large private functions, festivals, live music and community events - a genuine point of difference rarely seen in country hotels of this scale.

The hotel also enjoys strong community support, regularly hosting celebrations, fundraisers and private functions. Free on-site camping attracts grey nomads, cyclists and travellers, further enhancing trade and reinforcing the venue's reputation as a welcoming regional stop.

Currently trading five days per week, the business offers immediate income with clear upside for an experienced operator seeking to expand hours, events or seasonal opportunities.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established leasehold country hotel with strong foundations, historic appeal and outstanding growth potential. The Redesdale Hotel represents the ideal blend of lifestyle, legacy and long-term investment.
