Pubs To Lease In Blaydon-on-Tyne – Run The Huntsman !
The Huntsman Pub is an exciting opportunity and rarely do community pubs of this size and standard become available. Located in the North East town of Blaydon, The Huntsman is in the heart of a densely populated residential estate with a strong following of regulars along with a high footfall of passing trade. This brilliant pub was refurbished to a high standard in September 2018 both internally and externally with the introduction of a commercial kitchen. Modern Blaydon stands close to the Tyne with the A695, a key road from Gateshead to Hexham, passing through the town centre. Between this main road and the river is the railway and, beyond it, in a bend of the Tyne River is the industrial district of Blaydon Haughs with these spectacular views seen from the dining room of the pub. Despite being a largely urban and a historical industrial town, there are various rural aspects to Blaydon and miles of countryside in the surrounding areas.
Pub Layout
On entering the pub, to the right you are welcomed into the impressive main bar area which has something for everyone. Live and team sports feature prominently with two oches (the best darts set up in Blaydon) along with a match pool table feature as well as multiple screen sports viewing set up. The bar area also has a mixture of cosy booths with fixed seating along with poser tables and bar stools around the main bar. Through a good-sized hallway to the left of the pub, there is access to the well-appointed toilets, commercial kitchen and a further door to the rear of the pub. The rear of the pub is used as a restaurant or offered separately for private functions. With loose seating and staggered levels, this room could easily host live bands and entertainment or provide dining for over sixty covers. To the rear of this room there is an external door providing access to the car park or the rear courtyard. The rear courtyard is completely enclosed and is an absolute suntrap made up of a paved patio with a number of picnic benches. The car park is down the stairs from the back entrance of the pub and provides parking for up to twenty vehicles.
