PUB BUSINESS AND FLAT – Not currently available to let.
Pub Recruitment Open Day: 2nd July 10-3pm – Call Head of Recruitment to book a slot! 07788445787
The Saxon Inn sits right in the centre of Calmore, a large residential suburb on the edge of Totton and Southampton. Surrounded by family housing, schools, local shops and community facilities, the pub is well placed to serve the local population and has been a focal point for the community for many years.
The area offers a strong customer base within walking distance of the pub, making it ideally suited to an operator who enjoys being part of the local community and building relationships with regular customers.
The Saxon Inn is a substantial detached pub with plenty of presence within the estate. Internally the pub offers a traditional bar area alongside a separate lounge, giving flexibility to cater for different customer occasions.
The site benefits from a commercial kitchen, allowing an incoming operator to develop a food offer if desired, whilst retaining the pub’s strong wet-led community feel.
Externally there is a large beer garden and patio area which provides excellent additional trading space during the warmer months. Customer parking is also available on site.
The pub has all the ingredients of a successful community local and offers plenty of opportunity for a hands-on operator to take the business forward.
Private accommodation is included and comprises:
• Three bedrooms
• Living room
• Kitchen
• Bathroom
The accommodation is well suited to a tenant looking to live on site and fully immerse themselves in the business and local community.
The Saxon Inn has traditionally operated as a community-focused pub with a strong wet trade. The pub has built a loyal following through live sport, pub games, entertainment and community events.
There is an opportunity to build on these foundations by strengthening the food offer, increasing family occasions and creating a regular programme of events that keeps the pub at the centre of community life.
BDM Vision:
I see the Saxon Inn as a true community pub; somewhere that caters for everyone. A pub where customers can come to watch sport, enjoy a drink with friends, take part in local events or bring the family for a meal.
The successful operator will embrace the community aspect of the business whilst looking for opportunities to grow sales through food, entertainment and seasonal events. The garden provides a fantastic asset that could be utilised much more, particularly during the spring and summer months.
There are several pubs within the wider Totton area; however, the Saxon Inn benefits from being the only pub located within the immediate Calmore estate.
Nearby competitors include pubs in Totton town centre and the surrounding villages, most of which rely on customers travelling to them. The Saxon Inn’s strength lies in its position at the heart of the local community and its ability to attract regular trade from the surrounding residential area.
The pub currently benefits from licensed hours of:
Monday to Sunday: 10:00am – Midnight
Operators should look to maximise these hours through a balanced mix of wet sales, food, entertainment and community activity.
TBC
