Public House And Restaurant In Haltwhistle Northumberland For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this thriving public house and restaurant with letting accommodation, which was established in the 19th century as a coaching house and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 2001. The pub is only now being offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £295,366 per annum with a gross profit of 53% and offers an extensive range of alcohol, traditional pub food and 6 en-suite letting rooms. The pub also hosts a singer twice a month and is home to two dart teams and two pool teams. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and expanding on the restaurant side of the business. There is also scope to extend the range of entertainment hosted. The Manor House Inn has an extensive website in place with on-line booking facilities. The pub has a loyal customer base, enjoying much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. The property has been fitted to a high standard and well-maintained throughout. All the letting rooms have en-suite facilities, tea and coffee making equipment and flat screen TVs. There is 3-bedroom owners' accommodation with lounge, kitchen and bathroom. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy public house in such a desirable location and with an enviable reputation. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
