Located just two miles from Ventnor and three miles from Shanklin, the property benefits from strong visibility on the main road through the village and is surrounded by residential housing and nearby holiday parks, providing both year round local trade and seasonal visitor appeal.

Owner's Accommodation

Arranged over the first floor with external access leading to two double bedrooms, living room, utility room, office and bathroom.

The Opportunity

The business is currently operated by hands on owners who reside above the premises. It has been traded as an American themed bar and restaurant. Due to family health circumstances, the owners have taken the difficult decision to sell.

This represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold pub on the Isle of Wight. The business benefits from strong seasonal trade, driven by an influx of tourists during the summer months from nearby campsites, while also enjoying loyal support from the local community throughout the year.

The property is ideally suited to a hands-on owner operator seeking to further develop the business, particularly by enhancing the food offering, while also benefiting from comfortable owner's accommodation on site.

Staff

The business is currently operated solely by a hands-on owner operator and does not employ any staff. Accordingly, no employees are expected to transfer with the business under TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006).

Trading Hours

Monday to Sunday - 5pm to Closed.

Tenure

The Freehold is to be sold as a trading going Concern (TOGC).

Business Rates

The Rateable Value, as per the April 2023 Ratings List, is £33,000. Confirmation of the actual rates payable should be sought from the Local Authority. The future Rateable Value, effective from 1 April 2026, is £35,000.

Regulatory

The property benefits from a Premises Licence. Any prospective purchaser will be required to hold a Personal Licence and to apply, at their own expense, for the transfer of the Premises Licence (subject to approval by the licensing authority).

VAT will be payable, in addition, at the prevailing rate. Normally 90% of the gross purchase price, however, we advise that any prospective purchaser consults an accountant.
