Job Type: Leased & Tenancy, Run a Pub, Pub Manager
Sector: Pubs and Bars
Contract Type: Full Time
Pub Layout
On walking to the pub, there is a paved beer garden to the rear which sits by the roadside to watch the world go by. When you enter the pub, there is a raised lounge area suitable for drinking or eating which leads to the main bar area that curves around the horseshoe-shaped bar. To the right-hand side is some comfortable fixed seating and a wood-burning stove, and to the left, there is a more traditional bar feel suitable for both drinking and eating. To the right of the bar, there are some steps that lead to another trading room and the toilets. The top trading room is currently used as a sports area with TV’s, darts, and skittles; however, it could be used as a meeting room or private dining. There are also 3 en-suite letting rooms at the site.
Trading Style
The pub currently trades as a village pub, which should be part of the local community. With the right food offer, it could become a popular and welcomed destination food venue. The ability to focus on good hearty pub food is a must, while incorporating weekend specials and weeknights that should focus on offers such as steak night and fish night, ensuring the pub is supported throughout the quieter days. A strong rhythm of the week is required in terms of entertainment, such as quiz nights and live music, and sports teams such as darts would be a welcome addition. The three en-suite letting rooms are also a popular addition to the site and are used by locals, their families, and travelers from all over the UK.
Accommodation
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a sitting room, a bathroom, and a kitchen. The guest accommodation consists of 3 en-suite letting rooms.

BDM Vision
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced licensee to put their stamp on a great pub. A good understanding of a food pub and the ability to deliver this is a must. Understanding the local community and immersing themselves is essential to allow you to grow this pub. A strong marketing presence and good retail standards are a must. The letting rooms are a great source of additional income and these need to be pushed within the local community and further afield on booking sites and social media as well.
