Pubs To Lease In Swindon – The Eagle Is Available !
Watchfield is a rapidly expanding, picturesque village in the beautiful Vale of The White Horse on the busy A420, Swindon to Oxford road. Watchfield is home to the bustling and affluent Shrivenham 100 business park as well as the residential training facility for the UK Defence Academy. Surrounded by natural history, rolling hills, great walks and loads to see and do for explorers, walkers and photographers, Watchfield is only eight miles north East of Swindon Town centre. Multiple new affluent housing developments are underway in the local vicinity, making the Eagle a gem of a business with scope to grow and develop a traditional pub in the heart of the community.
Pub Layout
As you walk through the front door of the Eagle, the well stocked centrally located bar provides a warm welcome as the 2 zoned bar areas, stretch out either side. To the left, there is a traditional public bar area, which currently hosts a pool table and darts board which could easily be moved around to host live music and various other events. To the right, there are low level tables, chairs and sofas providing a more relaxed atmosphere with an open fire and cosy feel. To the rear of the bar, there is a well-equipped galley kitchen, capable of hosting a traditional 7 day, pub food offer. Doors leads out into a beautiful and enclosed sun trap, courtyard with outside seating and well tended gardens. As the building extends down to the right, there is another area that can be used for additional seating, dining, events and more. There is ample on street parking located around the property.

We are looking for a licensee who is passionate, has great retail standards and who loves community life. The ideal tenant will put their own stamp on the business and establish themselves within the local community by developing an exciting and compelling food offer and attracting locals, as well as those from the wider community such as the local business park and the military training academy. There is an opportunity to premiumise the wine, spirits and craft beers as well as expand the business and increase footfall by opening all day and introducing a quality food, cake and bakery offer. With the absence of a bakery or cafe in the village, there is huge opportunity to maximise on this potential additional income stream. The new tenant would ideally also be proficient and competent in using social media and local marketing to further drive the business forwards.
