Seafront property previously home to bar linked to celebrity up for rent

Published on

A newly refurbished seafront property with celebrity connections has been made available to rent.

The Worthing property, located at 42 Marine Parade, was previously home to Roots Bar, opened by author, socialite and television personality Lady Colin Campbell, known as Lady C, in 2022.

Lady C, who received wide recognition on reality show I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, lives at nearby Castle Goring and funded the project, which was styled after her family’s London home.

Roots previously announced that it was closing in September last year, and the property is now looking for a new tenant.

Refitted in 2024 to a “high standard”, the premises is being marketed by Worthing-based property firm Justice & Co as a “turnkey opportunity” ready for immediate occupancy under new lease terms.

The unit is available at a rate of £1,667 per month, equating to an annual rent of £20,000 plus VAT.

The space includes a bespoke fitted bar servery, large open-plan restaurant and bar area, commercial kitchen, and storage facilities.

It can currently accommodate up to 120 patrons indoors and a further 20 outside, with potential to increase capacity.

The ground floor is fronted by large windows that offer natural daylight and views of the seafront, with Worthing Pier located only metres along the promenade.

There is also a small games area at the rear that could be converted for further retail use if required.
