Property details
The landlords are delighted to announce that the Golden Knight is joining the family, and they are investing around £290,000 into what is already a great community local.
The pub is situated within a community neighbourhood within the ward of Huntingdon East in the district of Huntingdonshire in the East of England region. The pub is surrounded by chimney pots with a well supporting local community. It has good local amenities and a nearby primary and secondary school, convenience stores, and a large green open space (Sapley Playing Fields) with sports pitches and a play area. The pub will undergo a full transformation with both internal and external decoration, bringing this well-loved pub a fresh appeal.
The pub will undergo a full internal and external transformation, creating a warm, modern, and welcoming space that caters to all. Inside, the open plan layout will be carefully zoned to provide distinct areas for different occasions. A dedicated sports area will feature a pool table, darts boards, and multiple large screens, complemented by new fixtures and fittings. The centrally positioned bar will serve as the heart of the pub, designed to efficiently service every part of the venue. Overlooking the bar will be a raised area with comfortable fixed seating and carpeted flooring, ideal for relaxed drinks and catch-ups with friends, while the larger open space to the right will combine carpet and wooden flooring to create a versatile seating area suitable for all types of gatherings.
Externally, the transformation will be just as impressive with plenty of space to enjoy a drink with family and friends in the summer months, and further opportunity for community events like fun days and charity events utilising the great outdoor area.
The private accommodation consists of two bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a separate office. The Private accommodation will be invested in to be a safe and welcoming place for an operator and family to call home.

Trading style
The Golden Knight has huge potential to grow its already great trade, hosting a range of events and activities to suit all. It will offer the full Sky Sports and TNT Sports packages. All major fixtures will be shown on strategically positioned TV screens throughout the pub, creating an electric matchday atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. Beyond sports, there are exciting opportunities to focus on charity fundraisers, quiz nights, and daytime entertainment such as Music Bingo, Play Your Cards Right, and other fun, interactive events that bring people together. Locals can enjoy a diverse and high-quality drinks selection, featuring leading brands, weekly promotions, and monthly deals that deliver great value. Weekend entertainment will keep the energy high with lively karaoke nights and discos that attract a vibrant, diverse crowd. There’s also untapped potential to grow the sporting side of the pub by forming new pool, darts, and football teams, strengthening The Golden Knights' ties to the local community. The landlords believe in making a positive impact in every neighbourhood, and the Golden Knight embodies that spirit. It’s a place where everyone feels welcome, entertained, and proud to be part of the community.
The BDM is looking for an individual or couple who has proven experience in running and operating a community pub for this amazing opportunity. The landlords need someone who has the ambition and skills to take this established pub to the next level, whilst providing a consistent service with great standards and the ability to run an efficient and well-maintained business. It goes without saying that the new operator will put the community at the heart of everything that goes on and will strive to continue to make the Golden Knight the community hub in the local area. To succeed, the new operator must have a passion and energy for promotion and hosting events to suit all occasions to meet the local community's needs.
