The pub is a well presented, semi detached public house situated at the heart of a large residential community, close to a local industrial estate. Serving as a focal point for the surrounding neighbourhood, the pub operates within a well-established catchment area of approximately 15,000 residents. Somercotes itself is a thriving Derbyshire village with a predominantly working-class demographic and a strong sense of local identity. The area benefits from excellent transport connections with the B600 providing easy road access, regular Trentbarton bus services linking to Alfreton and Derby, and Alfreton railway station located just a short distance away. The Crown’s position within a busy and well-populated area makes it ideally placed to attract a loyal local trade while also appealing to passing custom from nearby employment parks and through traffic.
Upon entering, guests are greeted by a warm and welcoming interior with the main bar directly ahead, creating an immediate focal point. To the left, a spacious seating area with a mix of tables and chairs provides a comfortable setting for socialising, complemented by a well-maintained pool table that adds to the lively atmosphere. Several TVs are positioned throughout, ensuring excellent views for those enjoying live Sky Sports.
Continuing through the pub, past the bar on the left, visitors will find well-presented ladies’ and gents’ facilities and direct access to a generous, enclosed beer garden, an ideal space for outdoor drinking and to hold community events during the warmer months.
