Property details
The Phoenix is located in the attractive Hampshire town of Hartley Wintney, surrounded by beautiful countryside and approximately a 20-minute walk or five-minute drive from the town centre. There are around 1,418 adults living within a 10-minute walk of the pub, increasing to approximately 3,748 within a 20-minute walk. With no competing pubs within a 10-minute walk and only two more drinks-focused pubs in Hartley Wintney town centre, the Phoenix is well placed to offer something distinctive within the local area.
The pub currently attracts a loyal, more mature customer base and is already recognised as a destination for local customers. The investment will strengthen this foundation, helping the pub attract more families, casual diners, walk-in customers and destination visits.
The pub's trading area and facilities post refurbishment will be:
- Main trading area with bar
- Separate dining room
- Snug area
- Approximately 80 internal covers
- Catering kitchen
- HEINEKEN SmartDispense
- Pub garden
- Approximately 65 external covers

A planned investment of approximately £48,000 will enhance the Phoenix through external improvements and targeted internal upgrades. The scheme will refresh the frontage and signage, improve the pub’s kerb appeal and introduce enhancements to the back bar and interior décor.
The investment is designed to complement an already successful and well-established pub, creating an even more attractive environment for its loyal customers while encouraging new guests to visit.
The pub’s exterior will be refurbished with refreshed frontage details and new signage, creating a more appealing first impression and helping the Phoenix stand out to passing customers.
Inside, improvements to the back bar and selected décor will create a more premium appearance and enhance the overall customer experience. These focused changes will support the pub’s existing Great Pub, Great Food positioning without losing the character and qualities that have helped it build a loyal following.
The Phoenix already has a strong reputation for food, particularly its Sunday roasts, alongside an established selection of cask ales, lagers and craft drinks. It is also well placed to serve coffee and attract daytime customers.
There is an opportunity for the new operator to develop entertainment and events that suit the local market. The successful applicant will need to retain the pub’s established strengths while introducing fresh ideas that attract families, casual diners and destination customers.
If you’ve benefited from running or owning a pub business, the landlords would love to hear what experience you can bring. The right operator for Phoenix will have extensive experience in successful food-led pub and hospitality businesses. They will have a clear vision for the food and drink menu, entertainment offer and marketing strategy, while building on the pub’s reputation for Sunday roasts, cask ale, lager, craft drinks and welcoming service. They will understand how to create a memorable experience for both loyal local customers and new visitors.
If this sounds like the incredible pub opportunity you’ve been waiting for, apply today and tell the landlords what you can bring to this pub’s next chapter.
