About the role

RUN THE GREEN DRAGON, BEDALE

Pillar Agreement

Overview: The Green Dragon is an established food-led pub with letting rooms in the heart of Bedale, North Yorkshire. Known for its strong food offer, quality accommodation and welcoming atmosphere, it attracts local residents, visitors to the Yorkshire Dales and business travellers alike. With weekly sales of £13,500, seven letting bedrooms and a further £3,000 per week growth opportunity, this is a fantastic opportunity for the right operator to build on strong foundations.

The business: The pub offers a traditional bar, bright conservatory restaurant and seven letting bedrooms, creating multiple income streams from food, drink and accommodation. Supported by a balanced sales mix of 30% wet, 25% food and 45% rooms, alongside strong local demand and an established reputation for hospitality. Key strengths include its prime Market Place location, valuable accommodation income and strong appeal to both locals and visitors.

The opportunity: The next operator can further establish The Green Dragon as Bedale's go-to destination for dining, stays and community occasions. The strongest growth priorities are increasing food sales, developing accommodation occupancy and enhancing community events and local engagement. There is also an opportunity to build on the pub's existing reputation through regular entertainment, partnerships and seasonal events.

Who we're looking for: We're looking for an experienced operator, couple or team with a strong background in food-led hospitality and accommodation businesses. You'll have excellent community engagement skills, commercial awareness and the confidence to grow all revenue streams while maintaining the pub's reputation for great hospitality.

What's in it for you? With our Pillar Agreement, you benefit from 30% of weekly wet sales, 75% of food sales and 100% of rooms income, while enjoying the freedom to create your own menu. Low ingoing costs start with a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost. Separate owner's accommodation is included, with most bills covered except council tax and TV Licence.

Ready to take the next step? Run The Green Dragon and create one of North Yorkshire's favourite community pubs with rooms. If you're ready to grow a thriving food, drink and accommodation business in the heart of Bedale, enquire today.
