About the role
Your Local Partner Opportunity
Overview: The Nags Head is a fantastic community pub located in the heart of the thriving Derbyshire village of Borrowash. As the only pub in the village, it sits right at the centre of local life and enjoys a loyal customer base, strong weekly sales of around £10,000, and a reputation as a welcoming place to meet, socialise and unwind. With excellent connections to the A50 and A38, the pub benefits from both regular local trade and passing customers, creating a strong foundation for future growth.
The business: The pub offers two comfortable trading rooms served by a central bar, providing flexibility for everyday drinking occasions, social gatherings, community events and family visits. Outside, The Nags Head boasts a large beer garden, decked seating area and children's play equipment, making it a popular destination for families and a fantastic venue for summer trading. With its established customer base and prime position within the village, the pub already plays an important role in the local community.
The opportunity: Currently operating as a 100% wet-led business, The Nags Head presents a clear opportunity for an ambitious operator to introduce a food offer and unlock additional revenue streams. The combination of strong existing trade, outdoor space and village-centre location creates significant potential to broaden the pub's appeal throughout the week. Community events, live sport, family-focused activities, local team partnerships, quiz nights and a well-executed food proposition could all help drive further footfall and increase customer spend. With strong sales already in place, this is an excellent opportunity to build on solid foundations and take the business to the next level.
Who we're looking for: We're looking for a passionate, hands-on pub partner or couple who can become a visible part of the Borrowash community. The ideal operator will enjoy building relationships with customers, creating a welcoming atmosphere and developing new reasons for people to visit. Whether your strengths lie in food, community engagement, events or all-round hospitality, this is a fantastic opportunity for someone with energy, personality and ambition to make their mark.
What's in it for you?
• 20% share of weekly wet sales, excluding VAT.
• Keep 100% of the food sales.
• Low ingoing costs, starting with just a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost. (Deposits can vary depending on the business, ask us for more details).
• Accommodation included with most bills covered, excluding Council Tax and TV Licence.
Ready to take the next step? Run The Nags Head and become the heart of a thriving Derbyshire village. With strong existing sales, a loyal customer base, extensive outdoor trading space and the opportunity to introduce your own food offer, this is a fantastic chance to create a thriving community pub. If you're passionate about hospitality and want the freedom to run your own business with Marston's support behind you, we'd love to hear from you.
