Established village pub with car park and scope to grow food-led income.
Grade II listed thatched village pub with strong period character
A landmark village pub in Riddings, The Moulders Arms (The Thack) is a Grade II listed, detached thatched property offered freehold with an established wet-led trade and scope to grow food sales. The building retains strong period character — exposed beams, stone facade and a thatched roof — and benefits from a large car park, front and rear trade patios and regular community events that sustain local custom and holidaymaker trade.
The ground floor layout provides distinct trading areas: main bar, dining room with log burner, snug, and games room, plus a fully fitted commercial kitchen and open-plan cellar with external barrel drop. First-floor private accommodation has two double bedrooms, a lounge and a bathroom refurbished in 2024. Current turnover and net profit figures are provided to serious parties after viewing; the business is run by a management couple with part-time staff and holds a full premises licence.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment or expansion plans, while the thatched roof and historic fabric will require ongoing specialist maintenance. The local area scores high for deprivation and crime, which should be factored into operating strategy. For a hands-on operator or investor, there is clear potential to increase income by expanding the food offering and promoting events to wider catchments.
