Property details
The landlords are excited to announce that The Lodge is joining the family! This much loved local is set to undergo a transformational £245,000 investment, bringing new life to a classic pub at the heart of Dukinfield. Located just a mile from Dukinfield town centre and within easy reach of Hyde and Stalybridge, The Lodge already holds a special place in the community. With a local population of around 19,000, many of whom already call The Lodge their local, this exciting revamp will make the pub even more welcoming for everyone.
Inside, the pub will remain true to its roots while receiving a full refresh. The lounge will be redesigned with stylish fixed seating, creating a warm and relaxing space for friends and families to enjoy. The sports area will be enhanced with a pool table, a state-of-the-art darts board, and multiple screens to provide the best live sports experience. At the heart of it all, the central bar will continue to efficiently serve both sides of the pub, ensuring excellent service for every guest.
Outside, the transformation continues with a newly designed beer garden, complete with fresh benches and flooring to create a perfect spot for summer evenings. For the colder months, a sheltered seating area will provide comfort and warmth, allowing the pub to be enjoyed all year round. This new outdoor space will also become a great setting for community charity events, strengthening The Lodge’s role as a true hub for the local area. The Lodge is all set to become a vibrant and versatile pub for every occasion, whether you’re after live sport, a catch-up over drinks, or a fun night out with friends. The landlords can’t wait to welcome you in and share the exciting changes very soon
The private accommodation is located on the first floor, is well laid out, and consists of three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom, all in good condition throughout, and is a perfect hub for a new operator to call home.

The Lodge is already a well-loved and respected part of the local community, with a loyal customer base and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Catering for all age groups, the pub is known for its excellent standards and friendly team, who make every visit feel special. With its strong community spirit, The Lodge proudly supports local pool, darts, and quiz teams throughout the week. Now, The Lodge is set to become an even livelier hub for the area! With full Sky and TNT Sports packages and numerous well-placed screens, it’s the perfect place to catch every moment of live sporting action. But it’s not just about sports; customers can enjoy regular DJ nights, karaoke, and community events that bring people together. The Lodge will also play a key role in fundraising initiatives, giving back to the local area, and strengthening its role as a true community pub. Alongside the entertainment, guests can look forward to a wide and varied drinks selection, featuring top-quality products, weekly promotions, and exciting monthly deals, always offering great value and something new to try. The landlords believe in making a positive impact, and The Lodge will continue to be a place where everyone feels welcome, entertained, and part of the community.
The BDM is looking for passionate operators who thrive in the heart of a community pub and is ideally seeking a dynamic individual or couple ready to immerse themselves in community life. The new operator should implement a great rhythm of the week that ideally with darts and pool teams featuring and importantly maximises the full paid-to-view sports package. Your skills must include commercial acumen and the ability to market and drive sales. The landlords want someone dedicated and skilled to champion the community first ethos while delivering outstanding hospitality and first-class operational standards.
