Oak and Anchor Hotel in Port Fairy set to go on sale after 2020 makeover

The Oak and Anchor Hotel is licensed for 450 people and has seven bedrooms.

The Oak and Anchor Hotel in Port Fairy will go on the market later this week. The hotel was extensively renovated in 2020 before opening as a hospitality and accommodation venue.

The premises has a long history, dating back to 1857 when it was known as the Commercial Hotel. The hotel is licensed to have 450 people, which the agent says suits weddings and events.

The property also has seven bedrooms, including an accessible one, plus a commercial laundry. The selling agent says the owners have five young children and not enough time for the hotel.

Expressions of interest for the hotel close on Wednesday, November 18.

Why it mattersThe agent says a buyer could take over a working hotel rather than start from scratch.

AustraliaNo direct Australian effect yet, since this is a single hotel sale in one town. Only a new owner's plans for the venue would change that for locals.
