Situated on the Totnes Road at Tweenaway on the road running out of Paignton towards Totnes, there is a huge car park providing ample parking.

Trading Style

Indoor trading area

Internally the pub comprises of one extremely well-presented trading area. There is an imposing bow shaped central servery with full range of draught and packaged products including wines, spirits, and minerals, and a large screen currently showing regular sporting events. Seating is comfortable and would suit drinkers and diners alike. To the rear of the bar area is the trade kitchen with visibility to consumers and which has good access to all area, and in addition there is a good-sized function room, with full bar facilities, positioned below the main trade area. This can accommodate parties of up to 60 and houses the pub's pool table and dart board.

Outdoor trading area

To the front of the property adjoining the main trade area is a large external decked seating area with approximately 30 covers. This is positioned above road level and is popular both in periods of good weather and with those who enjoy being outside. The pub also has a large car park for around 60 vehicles and can easily cater for the passing trade that want a stop off point for a drink and some food.

Regional Manager Comments

The Noah's Ark is in great condition and offers a new publican the chance to build upon the level of trade already established. The pub enjoys a prominent position and is well placed to further expand business levels from the facilities in the surrounding areas. I am looking for a publican with catering experience to continue the popular food reputation, whilst also keeping the passing trade at the forefront of their decisions. Investing in the local community is also paramount, to maintain and improve the local trade.
