Property details
The Welsh Princess enjoys a prominent roadside position in the village of Rayne, located just one mile from the centre of Braintree. This charming village benefits from strong local demographics and convenient transport connections with Braintree train station, approximately two miles from the pub. There are also plenty of bus routes, including connections to the airport and surrounding towns. Adjacent to the pub is a popular Indian restaurant, adding to the local dining scene, and the main competition in the area is The Swan, another established pub within the village.
The pub itself is a quaint and traditional venue and has been sympathetically upgraded over the years. Walking up the few entrance steps into the pub, you arrive straight into the main trade area, which is one large open space accompanied by a long bar servery. Well laid out with a mixture of low and high-level seating, the Welsh Princess has lots of natural light and character beams to add to its charm as well as space for a pool table and darts board.
To the rear of the pub, you will find a well-designed, compact trade kitchen, and externally, the pub is furnished with an external drinking area and car park.
The private accommodation consists of two bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
The Welsh Princess has a good premium range and offers plenty of variety for all to enjoy. A small food offer does well, with themed evenings taking off and small plates becoming more and more popular. Tapas-style dishes are also well-received at the pub and have proven to be a very popular choice with the community. There are weekly teams that use the pub as their home turf, and also an avid band of football supporters who regularly bring in the weekly trade, with Sky and TNT being popular additions to the site. Music also features highly at the Princess, and bands are often the Saturday night entertainment of choice, followed closely by Open Mic nights and karaoke.
This is an amazing opportunity for an experienced licensee (s) who will continue to engage with the local community and provide a consistent offering to the village and surrounding villages. Ideal for someone who loves to be hands-on and who has a wealth of knowledge in working with people and running pubs that deliver a great hospitality experience. Having a very active rhythm of the week will see the Welsh Princess excel within the community, and having a jam-packed calendar of events such as charity days and bank holiday fun days will push this pub to its maximum potential. The Welsh Princess needs to be the hub of the local area, and with the right operator, believe that it can wholeheartedly be that venue.
