Exciting investment opportunity

What would you do with this pub to make it even more of a success?

The area

Located in the centre of the picturesque market town of Kelso, The White Swan occupies a prime position on the edge of the vibrant market square, surrounded by an array of independent businesses. Kelso’s resident population of circa 7k  is experiencing growth, with new housing developments and an influx of younger households and families. Visitors are drawn to Kelso by a host of different local attractions, such as Floors Castle and The Racecourse, and by events such Kelso Civic Week, the annual Scooter Week and the Border Union Show.
 

The White Swan will offer when refurbished.

The White Swan is a two bar operation, which will be refurbished to a high standard, creating a modern, comfortable and relaxed space, which local residents, business people, and visitors to Kelso can enjoy. The exterior of the pub will be redecorated & re-signed, both at the front and rear entrances, to give it more prominence. There is an opportunity to develop a really good quality Pub Food Offer, both daytime and evening, to complement the quality Drinks Range, which includes Cask Beer. Regular activities might include Televised Sport, Live Entertainment at Weekends, and a Quiz Night. There is also space in the front bar of the pub to hold private functions, events, and celebrations for circa 25 people. Finally, the White Swan offers a two bedroom apartment with separate entrance.

The White Swan is available on our foundation tenancy agreement. Click here for more information on this agreement.
