Property details
Located in the village of Gotham in Nottinghamshire, the Cuckoo Bush sits within a charming and close-knit community known for its green landscapes and family-friendly feel. With over 1,500 adults living within a 10 to 20-minute walk, the pub is well positioned at the centre of local life.
The refurbishment will reposition the pub to appeal to a broader and more diverse audience, including families, casual diners, and After-Work Socialisers, while encouraging more destination visits. With only two nearby competitors offering similar community-focused food and drink, there is a strong opportunity to stand out with a more premium, well-rounded experience.
The pub's trading area and facilities post-refurbishment will be:
- Main trading area with a bar
- Separate dining room
- Snug area
- Separate games and sports zone
- Catering kitchen
- 65 internal covers
- 75+ external covers
- Beer garden
- HEINEKEN SmartDispense system
- Car park with 25+ spaces
- Three-bedroom private accommodation
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
A refurbishment investment of around £111,000 is planned to transform the Cuckoo Bush into a revitalised community pub with a strong food and drink offer at its heart.
The current offer has been largely wet-led and value-focused, with limited daytime use and a reliance on weekend trade. Having been closed for several years and only recently reopened, there is a clear opportunity to rebuild its reputation and re-establish itself as a key part of the community.
If you’ve benefited from running or owning a pub business, the landlords would love to hear what experience you can bring.
The right operator for Cuckoo Bush will have extensive experience in community-led hospitality businesses. They will have a clear vision for a balanced food and drink menu, a strong entertainment calendar including live music and sports, and a marketing strategy that reconnects the pub with its local audience while attracting new customers.
If this sounds like the incredible pub opportunity you’ve been waiting for, apply today and tell the landlords what you can bring to this pub’s next chapter.
