Property Description

Situated on the A149 North Norfolk coast road, approximately two miles south of Hunstanton and approximately 13 miles north of Kings Lynn, the Bushel & Strike is ideally situated in the middle of the village. The Bushel & Strike has good all year local based trade with increasing volumes due to the holiday trade throughout the year and particularly in the summer months. This family orientated pub is a hot spot through the holiday seasons allowing children to enjoy the warmer weather, whilst playing on the outdoor area. Heacham is a thriving village with a wonderful beach, which is a magnet for lovers of outdoor sporting activities. The well-presented outdoor area can be used for either drinking or dining and even comes with the opportunity to extend further. This homely decorated pub is able to cater to all needs offering a separate dining area to the large ‘L’ shaped bar, allowing the right publican the potential to increase both the food and wet trade.

The interior is furnished throughout, comprising an open plan trading area and an ‘L’ shaped bar servery complemented with stripped wood floor. There is an attractive separate dining area for around 25 covers, adjacent to the main bar which provides a great area for developing the business however this is currently home to the pool table. The trade kitchen is accessed from behind the bar and is located to the side of the restaurant. This is relatively compact and is fully electric.

Outdoor trading area

This pub offers an extensive external outside seating areas with a spacious patio with large fixed parasols situated to the front of the beer garden, alongside a children’s play area. This area is aesthetically pleasing to the eye through the array of greenery and lights. There is a car park for 20 spaces at the front of the pub which provides access to the main entrance. The right publican has the opportunity to extend the outdoor offering to the larger outside space which could be developed for either drinking or dining, in the summery months, or even additional revenue streams such as motorhome parking (subject to permission).

Regional Manager Comments

This is an attractive pub, with great kerb appeal, serving both locals and summer holiday makers. There is extensive existing external trade space and some unused space to the rear that has the potential to be used further, subject to permissions as the area is now presently licenced. It has the potential for additional revenue streams such as overnight parking for motorhomes. This is a great business opportunity for either an experienced publican or someone new to the trade looking for their ideal pub business. The current publicans are due to leave in October but may be willing to leave sooner if our new publican wishes to take the pub on earlier.
