Are you a community operator looking to run a quirky pub with bags of potential in Buxton? If so, look no further than the Blazing Rag.
Pub and location
Take the reins of the Blazing Rag, a traditional, family-run pub in Buxton, Derbyshire. Known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, the pub offers guests a quintessential British pub experience, taking pride in its selection of real ales, draught beers and lagers, wines and spirits.
We’re looking for a sports enthusiast. Why? The Blazing Rag also serves as a hub for local sports, with various trophies displayed throughout the establishment, indicating active participation in community leagues and events. Entertainment is key, so you’ll take full advantage of the pool table, darts board, and tables designated for cards and dominoes to encourage customer interaction. You’ll maximise broadcasts on five television screens showcasing live sports.
Inside, the pub features a U-shaped bar serving the cosy lounge and the sports area to the left. The business is open plan with some original features, including two open fireplaces.
Home of Buxton Water, this quaint thermal spa town is nestled in the centre of the beautiful Peak District and surrounded by the UK’s oldest National Park. Stunning ornamental gardens and world-famous Georgian and Victorian architecture provide an impressive backdrop to a rich range of music, theatre and festivals.
Whether it’s browsing the boutiques, enjoying an evening meal, exploring natural wonders, seeking high-energy thrills, getting in a round of golf or relaxing at a spa, Buxton has something for everyone. The ideal Publican will do everything possible to attract this diverse crowd.
