The Goathland Hotel has been in the same family for 40 years, and is now available due to retirement, with the business and lease, which runs until 2030, up for grabs.
In the world famous TV series, set in the 1960s, many pivotal scenes have taken place in the traditional village pub, where bubbly barmaid Gina Ward, played by Tricia Penrose, would be pulling the pints, often for key members of the local constabulary.
Advertised on Rightmove, the unique property offers nine bedrooms, eight of which have en suite facilities, a residents' lounge, a bar garden and a car park, and even an ice cream parlour with a shop, plus three-bedroom proprietor's accommodation.
The hotel is prominently situated on the village's main road, between the shops and the steam railway.
The Heartbeat series ran from 1992 to 2010, placing picturesque Goathland firmly on the map as a tourist attraction, and its episodes are still enjoyed by fans the world over.
Estate agent Barry Crux, who company is marketing the property, said: “This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a successful trading business, with all the benefits that go with it by association with Heartbeat, in one of the country’s finest areas of natural beauty.
“It is a unique property, a thriving business and a piece of TV history.”
He added: “The North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which runs through Goathland, brought the village its initial success and access to the moors as a tourist destination. This railway still brings guests to Goathland from March until November.”
The Goathland Hotel, Goathland, Whitby, YO22 5LY is for sale at £175,000, for the benefit of the lease, goodwill of the business, its trade fixtures, fittings and equipment, plus stock at valuation.
