Experienced Operator
Trading style
The Bettle & Chisel is a well‑established, listed village pub at the heart of Delabole, just a mile from the rugged North Cornwall coast. Perfectly positioned for both locals and visitors, it trades as a traditional pub through the winter and transforms into a vibrant, family‑friendly destination during the busy summer season, serving tourists exploring Cornwall’s hidden gems.
This is a multi‑faceted business with significant potential, ideally suited to an experienced, entrepreneurial operator who knows how to maximise every income stream. With its combination of pub trade, food offering, Air B&B self-contained letting room, and seasonal tourism, the Bettle & Chisel rewards a hands‑on operator with commercial drive and creativity.
The pub company is seeking an enthusiastic, experienced, hands‑on hospitality operator with the energy and commercial awareness to run a multi‑stream village pub business. They will be confident managing a food‑led pub, maintaining a strong community presence, and delivering excellent customer service.
They should have the skills to maximise the pub’s diverse revenue opportunities — including apartment‑style accommodation and events. Strong operational ability, from staff leadership to stock control, is essential.
This role suits someone seeking an on‑site lifestyle, ideally a couple or partnership, though a capable single operator could also thrive. The ideal candidate will be warm, visible, and committed to building relationships with both locals and visitors.
