Property details
Whittlesey is a market town, benefiting from fantastic transport links and a vibrant fishing lake attraction. The pub resides in a large estate surrounded by many chimney pots.
You’ll be taking the reins of a pub in the heart of its community. The open plan aspect makes the pub feel like a family community place, and the kitchen has fantastic equipment to support current and future demand.
You’ll discover a long, central, L-shaped bar inside that gives complete visibility to the main lounge and the side seating area used for food service. The pub has developed its food offer and delivers a smaller plate option, enhancing the revenue as locals have requested this option for some time.
You can access the letting rooms to the side of the pub externally or through the lounge internally.
The beer garden is a fantastic space. It’s also large enough to host a marquee, so functions are a realistic option to enhance sales in future. You’ll discover a good-sized car park to the side of the pub and a large L-shaped beer garden – a lovely sun trap.
