Cottage of Content

Property Description

The Cottage of Content is a traditional two roomed community pub situated in West Melton. On entrance to the pub, you are welcomed by traditional décor into the lounge area where live entertainment is frequently offered. There is also a local tap room offering pub games including pool and gaming machines popular with local sports teams. The property stands prominently on the corner of a busy crossroads, that links Barnsley and Rotherham offering great passing trade. Previous publicans have set up a social club that run events and outings from the pub, providing a hotspot for local residents. Stonegate Pub Partners are now looking for a new starter who is new to trade to put their own stamp on the pub whilst continuing the established sports and entertainment offerings. The new publican should look to integrate with the locals to maintain the strong trade built as well as marketing the pub effectively to attract trade from further afield.
