If you’re a skilled publican or retail manager with food experience then check out our latest opportunity to run the George Hotel in Hayfield on our Partnership Agreement.
Located in the beautiful Peak District village of Hayfield, The George is a grade II listed building of stature which benefits from 9 en-suite letting rooms, central bar servicing three distinct trading rooms, external decked drinking area which boasts a stream running through and a good sized car park. The pubs customer base consist of locals from Hayfield and other nearby villages as well as an abundance of tourists visiting the stunning Peak District.
The George benefits from a good local following, but is also very much a tourist destination being the gateway to Kinder Scout, Edale & High Peak and the home to Kinder Mountain rescue who are based next door to the pub. Regular live entertainment and quiz nights work well for the pub, however there is the opportunity to increase activities to increase trade. The layout whilst semi open plan also makes small functions viable for parties and events. We are also open to being flexible on the % of turnover of the pub to the new partner, for the right business plan.
