Property Description

Located in the heart of Wrotham village, this community local pub has a very traditional feel and has had significant recent investment. There is a trade kitchen, separate games room and spacious garden as well as a good- sized bar area which can be split for either pub games or designated dining. It also benefits from spacious accommodation. The George and Dragon is at the heart of the community and has a strong offering for drinking, dining, and socialising, thus generating a wide variety of customers. This opportunity would suit a first-time publican(s) who is eager to immerse themselves within the local community in order to develop and grow this business further.

Private Accommodation: The private accommodation is split across two floors with a self-contained living space with two-bedroom, shared bathroom and an office on the first floor, and an addition self-contained flat featuring a bathroom, lounge and kitchen on the second floor.

Regional Manager Comments

The George & Dragon is very much a local’s pub, predominantly catering for the residents of Wrotham and the surrounding villages. It is in the heart of the village and can be the centre of the community with designated areas for drinking, dining and pub games, giving great potential to appeal to a wide cross section of people. Ideally suited to a first-time couple or individual who could fully focus on the business and grow the turnover from current levels.
