GENERAL INFORMATION
THE BUSINESS
The Smugglers is an extremely popular coastal pub, situated in a prominent position overlooking the beach and well positioned to attract the vast numbers of holiday makers to the area. The property exudes character with its quirky bar and dining areas and its beautiful beer garden.
The business is family and dog friendly, making it accessible to all. The food and beverage side of the operation is boasted by the three delightful en-suite letting rooms, which are popular year round and offer something a little different from the usual pub accommodation. The pub is owned and operated by a husband and wife couple who trade the business Sundays to Thursday from 12pm to 10.30pm and from Friday to Saturday 12pm to 11.30pm. The food at the Smugglers is ever popular with a focus on producing fresh meals with locally sourced ingredients. The pub has a great reputation for stone baked pizzas with an eat in or takeaway menu, ideal for families on holiday. The food is complemented by a wide choice of Westcountry ales and ciders together with a good choice of spirits and quality wines.
Trade at The Smugglers Inn is particularly strong and growing season on season under the current owner’s tenure. There is still plenty of scope to grow the business and an early viewing of this rather unique business is highly recommended.
Further trading figures will be released to bone fide applicants following a formal viewing arranged through Bettesworths.
