Property details
The Fountain Inn is positioned on a main artery into Stroud just a quarter of a mile from the bustling town centre on Slad Road. It is surrounded by local housing, easy to get to by car or public transport, and walkable from the town centre. Stroud is a historic market town positioned with the Cotswolds, a national 'Area of Outstanding Beauty'. being within 25 miles of Gloucester, Cheltenham, Cirencester, and Bristol, it is extremely well linked to the big cities and only a few hours on the train into London. With regular farmer's markets and an abundance of town centre shops, Stroud is a great place to run a pub.
The Fountain Inn sits upon a small crossroads and benefits from having a garden to the side and a smoking shelter to the front of the property. The pub is laid out as one large, open-plan trading space with a single bar servery and also benefits from a separate games area to one side with around 35 covers overall in the main bar area. There is a catering kitchen to the rear of the bar and a ground-floor cellar.
The living accommodation is well appointed and benefits from having three good-sized bedrooms and a separate living room and kitchen as well as a good-sized bathroom and an office.

Trading style
This is a very warm and welcoming traditional community pub that has a good local reputation. Being the centre of the local community is what works at this site and having the added bonus of a great rhythm of the week with live music and sports helps to drive this business forward. Having recently benefitted from a full external redecoration at the site, the Fountain Inn now affords additional local custom and can really promote itself as the lovely community pub it really is.
The Fountain Inn would suit a strong experienced operator or couple who have a clear understanding of a pub that should sit right at the heart of the community.
An operator who can flex to the needs of the community, the new publican will ideally be offering traditional home-cooked pub grub, pub games, and entertainment and will serve excellent real ales to see this site’s fortunes grow. It will also be crucial that the new operator always ensures that great service and value are at the very heart of everything that they do.
