Overview

Looking to run a pub?

The Motte and Bailey is a pretty destination food pub, also catering to the local village community, located in the rural village of Pirton, a very pretty village with its own Post Office and shop as well as a well-regarded Primary School. The village is home to many commuters into London. Surrounded by countryside, it lies about 5 miles from Hitchin and about a 20-minute drive from Luton airport

The pub benefits from a prime position overlooking the village green, making for a very picturesque setting. Its front garden is attractive with views of the village green and the villages Maypole.

Business facilities

This well-presented village pub offers plenty of character and has a warm, traditional feel throughout. A feature fireplace adds to the ambience. The pub trades across two linked bars, with a strong back bar display space. This not only provides a great opportunity for hosting functions and parties, but also creates a separated space for diners. The kitchen can provide for up to 60 covers.

The pub is Cask Marque accredited and offers free WiFi. The outside space is a real asset here, with both front garden and gravelled side area with corner gazebo giving the pub real kerb appeal. The pub also provides parking for up to 12 vehicles.

Accommodation

The domestic accommodation consists of three bedrooms (one with en-suite), kitchen, lounge, bathroom.

Ideal Operator

This pub would ideally suit a couple with pub and catering experience. You’ll need a passion for cask beer, and organising events, the skills to deliver a quality food offer and the desire to quickly integrate with the local community.
