Silverdale Hotel
The Silverdale Hotel, Silverdale, Lancashire
Community Food Agreement
Nestled within the stunning Arnside & Silverdale National Landscape on the shores of Morecambe Bay, The Silverdale Hotel offers a rare opportunity to take on a thriving destination pub in one of the North West's most sought-after coastal villages.
Generating around £18,000 per week, the business enjoys a diverse revenue stream, with sales split 40% wet, 40% food and 20% accommodation across its nine letting rooms. Popular with both local residents and visitors exploring the area's coastline, wildlife and walking routes, the pub enjoys year-round appeal and a loyal customer base.
The site offers a variety of welcoming trading spaces, from the traditional Low House Tap with its characterful flagstone floor, to a bright conservatory restaurant that also lends itself to private dining and small functions. The letting accommodation provides an additional revenue stream and further opportunity to build on the pub's destination appeal.
Following ten successful years under the current operators, an exciting new chapter awaits. With a planned £150,000 investment programme later this year, this is a rare opportunity to take the helm of an already successful business and help shape its future. The investment has created the vacancy, providing an incoming operator with the unique opportunity to lead the site through its next stage of development and growth.
We're looking for an operator with a passion for food quality, presentation and guest experience, coupled with the commercial awareness to identify future revenue opportunities and maximise the pub's full potential. An eye for detail, strong operational standards and the ability to build on the excellent reputation already established will be key to success.
The business also benefits from separate owner's accommodation, offering a cosy two-bedroom retreat complete with kitchen, living area, office and bathroom.
With significant investment planned and a successful handover opportunity, this is your chance to shape the future of a well-loved destination pub from day one.
