Busy Public House And Restaurant In Cornworthy Devon For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy public house and restaurant, which was established in the 17th century and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 2007. The pub is only now being offered to the market due to our clients' other business interests. The business is run at a pace to suit our clients and trades 7 days a week, generating a turnover in the region of £120,000 per annum with a gross profit of 55%. The Hunters Lodge Inn offers an extensive range of real ales, fine wines and spirits and serves traditional pub food. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the opening hours to all day on Mondays and Sundays. There is also scope to embark on a modest marketing campaign. The pub is well-supported by the local community, with an enviable reputation and excellent reviews on Trip Advisor. There is a website in place advertising the business and services provided. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and have been fitted to a high standard throughout. The property boasts spacious 3-bedroom owners' accommodation and a beer garden and BBQ area, which could be utilised to host functions. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy public house with huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
