A Village Favourite Ready for a Confident Relaunch
A warm and modern pub in the heart of Stalmine is now ready for a fresh operator to bring energy, community spirit and great food back to a prime village location.
Planned Investment
The Seven Stars has recently been refurbished to a very good standard. Full focus will be placed on reopening and reconnecting with the village and rebuilding its presence.
Pub
The Seven Stars is a welcoming village pub that blends traditional charm with modern presentation. The open‑plan layout offers three natural trading areas built around a central bar, including a dining area, bar space and a casual dining/drinks section. Refurbished décor, a real log fire and a bright, cosy feel make the interior inviting for eating, drinking and events. Outside, the large rear beer garden with views and a barn‑style structure offers excellent scope for outdoor occasions, family days, summer trade and the pub’s well‑known Christmas nativity setup. Both the small front car park and the larger rear car park add to its convenience.
Location
Stalmine sits on a busy road between Lancaster and Poulton‑le‑Fylde, meaning the Seven Stars benefits from both loyal local trade and passing traffic. A new housing development is being built directly beside the pub, creating a strong opportunity to attract new families and shape the pub as the heart of a growing community. The wider area brings visitors for walking and trips to Cockerham, the famous Wallings Ice Cream Parlour and farm shop, Glasson Dock and coastal Fleetwood, giving the pub a broad customer base throughout the week and across the seasons.
Ideal Publican
The ideal operator will be confident delivering a quality food menu that makes the most of local produce and seasonal ingredients. Someone who enjoys becoming part of village life, building relationships with local groups, the church and school, and using social media effectively will thrive in this role.
Local knowledge is helpful but not essential. What matters most is genuine community engagement and a consistent, welcoming presence that re‑establishes the Seven Stars as the heart of the community.
Accommodation
The private accommodation includes two bedrooms, a private kitchen and a private lounge, offering comfortable on‑site living for an operator wanting to be close to the business and village life.
