Property details
The Holly Tree occupies a prominent position in Egham, close to Royal Holloway University and within easy reach of Windsor. This location provides access to a broad customer base, with students helping to drive midweek trade while local residents and sports followers support the pub throughout the week and at weekends. Its established reputation means the pub is already recognised as a social destination, giving a new operator strong foundations from which to grow the business.
The Holly Tree offers something few pubs can match: a unique blend of year-round entertainment, a large outdoor events space and a guest base that combines students, residents and regular sports fans.
Located just moments from Royal Holloway University, the pub has built a reputation as a destination for live music, karaoke, discos, sports viewing and social events. The challenge and opportunity for the next publican is keeping that momentum going while continuing to evolve the offer to suit a diverse and ever-changing audience.
Inside, the open-plan layout is divided into three distinct trading areas by a central fireplace, allowing different occasions and customer groups to coexist comfortably. A long central bar serves the entire space, making it well suited to busy entertainment nights.
Outside, the large beer garden is a genuine asset. With extensive seating, external booths and a covered marquee area, it provides the perfect platform for outdoor entertainment, student events, sports screenings and seasonal occasions that drive footfall beyond the main trading space.
For an operator who enjoys creating reasons for people to visit throughout the week, The Holly Tree provides an excellent stage on which to build.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a kitchen and a lounge

Subject to full approval, The Holly Tree will benefit from a comprehensive refurbishment designed to strengthen its appeal as one of Egham’s best-known entertainment-led pubs.
Internally, the main bar and customer toilets will be fully refurbished, with new flooring, redecorated trading areas, upgraded furniture and a new back bar display. The private accommodation will also be improved, expanding to three bedrooms and receiving redecoration and new carpeting where required.
Outside, the already substantial beer garden will be enhanced with new flooring, upgraded furniture and refurbished external booths. The outdoor trading space will also be extended, creating even greater capacity for events and entertainment throughout the year.
The Holly Tree is best suited to an energetic, hands-on operator who thrives on creating a lively calendar of events.
You’ll understand how to balance the needs of students, residents and sports fans, using entertainment, live music and social events to keep the pub relevant throughout the year. Strong organisational skills, confidence in promoting events and a visible presence in the business will be key to success.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys building atmosphere, driving footfall and making entertainment the engine of the business.
