A Herefordshire pub that featured on a popular BBC show is still on the market, with a price tag of nearly half a million pounds.

The Bells Inn in Almeley welcomed presenters and guests from the BBC One show, Escape to the Country in October. 

The episode saw presenter Nikki Chapman take couple Jane and David to view rural properties in the villages of Lyonshall and Wormsley and one just over the border in Powys.

In the end, the couple opted for the "mystery house", a former station house in Almeley, with a subterranean kitchen and living room with a mezzanine.

Taking a break from house hunting, the trio explored the charming country pub, with Chapman complimenting its atmosphere, saying it was at "the heart of the village and the community comes together and supports the shop and pub."

The village pub was put on the market earlier this year by estate agent Sidney Phillips, with an asking price of £450,000.

The agents have described it as being an "award-winning" character stone cottage and inn, with an "L-shaped" public bar and deli.

The freehold pub has been described as a well-established business,  achieving good turnover.
