Apply for this Pub

A £243,000 refurbishment is planned to transform the Londesborough into a premium village pub with a strong food and letting rooms offer at its heart. What would you do with this pub to make it a success?

About the area

Located in a picturesque village setting, the pub benefits from a train station within the village offering direct links to York and Scarborough, as well as a busy tourist road running through the area. This steady flow of visitors, alongside local residents, creates year-round trading potential.

There are 1,300 adults living within a 10-minute walk of the pub and 2,100 within 20 minutes, providing a solid base of local trade. With the pub currently closed, there is a clear opportunity to rebuild its reputation and reposition it as the go-to premium local. Direct competition for a premium pub experience does not exist within the village, with the nearest alternative being a family dining venue.

The refurbishment will reintroduce the pub to the community with a fresh, modern feel, designed to appeal to a broader and more diverse customer base. With a large refurbished kitchen and eight letting rooms, there is strong potential to attract diners, tourists and destination visitors, as well as tapping into after-work socialisers and weekend breaks.
