A County Durham village pub that has been described as 'superb' has hit the sale market for just under £400,000 - as new owners are sought. 

The Royal Oak, which is located in Consett, has popped up online as the current owners look set to try and offload the popular venue in the new year. 

Boasting a huge beer garden area, dining area, and drinks space, the village pub has become a solid choice for people in North West Durham. 

Cementing its place as a strong summer choice, due to its beer garden, any new owners will need to hit the £399,000 asking price.
