Property details
The Drum and Monkey is a prominent, detached building sitting in the village of Castle Gresley, which is located between Burton upon Trent and Swadlincote. With its close proximity to both these towns as well as the accessibility of the M42, this pub is very well located. Surrounded by a large new housing estate and existing housing, The Drum and Monkey is ideally positioned to play a key role in the local area as a community pub.
The pub features an open-plan interior centred around a single bar. Guests can enter through either the front or rear doors, and both lead into a warm, inviting space furnished with a mix of high and low tables. A dedicated area is set aside for the pool table and gaming machines. The interior is spacious enough to create designated seating areas if desired, and there is ample room to accommodate regular entertainment. The well-proportioned kitchen is reached via a door at the far end of the pub, while the toilets are located off a side corridor.
The rear entrance leads out to an external drinking area and a grassed garden, which includes a sizeable stretch tent providing a versatile covered space. At the front of the building, there is an additional outdoor seating area, and the site also benefits from parking for approximately 15 cars.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, along with a lounge, kitchen and bathroom.

Trading style
The pub currently trades primarily with a wet-led offer, though the generously sized kitchen provides clear potential to introduce a food offer. There is also scope to enhance the sports provision and grow involvement in local pub team leagues. With a solid draught range already established, reintroducing cask ale could present a strong opportunity for further growth.
This pub represents a tremendous opportunity for the right applicant. Situated in a densely populated area and benefiting from an excellent layout, strong facilities, and planned investment, it offers significant potential for growth. With a dedicated licensee who brings a clear and confident vision, there is ample scope to build on the pub’s existing success. The right licensee can continue to develop the business, ensuring it remains a vibrant hub at the heart of the community.
