Title: Sportsman Arms up for sale
Post by: Howard on September 10, 2015, 02:25:48 PM

I see the Sportsmans is up for sale owing to retirement. Price is £90k although rent is £37K per year excluding VAT. They have 7 years left of a 20 year lease.

I read it as 7 years remaining on the 20 year lease.....

Hope any interested buyers can keep up the standard of the Stockton's. One of the best pubs in the area IMHO...

Yes, it's an excellent, popular and very well run pub.  The hard-working Joe and Sue will be a hard act to follow.  Let's hope someone comes along who can maintain the high standard of food and drink and the friendly service.
