Regional Manager's Thoughts

The business has established a solid trading foundation with a loyal following and desirable wet, dry and letting room sales amongst locals and tourists passing through the area. The new publican would need to continue to operate the pub in the same successful manner or explore the civil ceremony opportunity and introduce holiday packages. There is potential for creating live in staff accommodation to help with recruiting the right team to drive the business.
