Public House in Bath For Sale

Business description

Bag a Business is pleased to offer for sale this busy public house, which dates back as far as 1847 and has been under the proud ownership of our client since 2006. It is now being placed on the market to allow him to concentrate on his other business interests. Run by him, with help from a dedicated team of 10 part time and 2 full time members of staff, the business has a healthy turnover of around £6,000 per week, which rises to £9,000 during very busy weeks. This income is further enhanced by £1,200 per month, which is generated by renting out the adjoining 4 bedroom house to students. There is a further two bedroom flat, which is currently used as staff accommodation. The Devonshire Arms enjoys an excellent local reputation for its friendly atmosphere and has 3 skittles teams as well as a darts team. We feel that this opportunity represents an ideal base for a new owner to build upon as there are numerous first floor rooms which are currently used for storage that would convert into a fantastic function room. Early viewing is recommended.
