Once a 19th Century Hunting Lodge, The Slyne Lodge is a detached pub in a prominent location on the main road between Lancaster and Carnforth which benefits from good motorway access from both sides.
The pub has a strong food trade and benefits from both local and holiday footfall. In summer, the patio terrace offers great sea views and sunsets. The pub also boasts 10 on site letting rooms and a large function room which can host ~100 people.
The Slyne Lodge is currently trading around £14,000 per week with a split of 50/30/20 in favour of wet.
This business will require applicants with experience of running a pub with a good food income and ideally some experience of letting rooms. Experience of using social media effectively and platforms such as Booking.com will be an advantage. Local knowledge isn’t essential – more importantly is having ideas to drive wet/dry sales and the drive to implement them.
The pub has traded strongly under the current operators tenure and the successful applicant will benefit from the pubs current trajectory
The private accommodation benefits from a main family flat with 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom. There are also two other self contained flats; a two bedroom with bathroom and a single bedroom with kitchenette and bathroom.
