It's official - The Royal Oak in Rode Heath has been bought and is set to reopen after being closed for a while.

Owners of the Brownlow Inn in Brownlow Heath near Sandbach have snapped up the Sandbach Road pub which was the market for £395,000 with Fleurets Limited.

"We look forward to transforming this pub back into a 'local' that all Rode Heath residents will be proud of.

"Regular posts of our progress will be made on our Facebook and Instagram to keep everyone updated - Royal Oak Rode Heath. We look forward to welcoming you."

Alsager Nub News told last year how The Royal Oak was being advertised through the Midlands office of Fleurets Limited based in Birmingham.

It was advertised on Rightmove, as having "two trading areas and kitchen, car parking and a three bed private quarters". 

The listing said: "A detached two storey brick-built property which is set back slightly from the road, lies beneath a pitched tiled roof and extends to the rear. 

"Immediately beyond this is a good sized and entirely covered smoking shelter. There is also a tarmac car park with space for around 14 vehicles and, beyond this an overgrown but very useful grassed beer garden/children's play area. There is also a private yard with large garage store." 

Alsager Nub News looks forward to the refurbishment of the pub and for the Royal Oak to reopen. Watch this space!
