Property details
The Plume of Feathers is a traditionally built pub located on a corner plot on the main road through the affluent village of Little Wymondley. The village is nestled between the busy Hertfordshire towns of Hitchin and Stevenage, with a two-minute drive to the A1 motorway and with great links to London, making it a preferred village for wealthy commuters from the city. The village comprises mainly residential property with a small convenience shop, another pub and some light industrial units. An Infant & Junior School are also located in the village.
Entering the building, a good-sized bar servery faces you and serves a comfortable, well-seated traditional lounge bar area with flagstone and tiled flooring, a large inglenook fireplace, and a quiet snug room. Adjacent is a large separate function room area, covered with an enclosed option by a stretch tent and side walls, which is ideal for events, parties and showing live sport on a big screen.
From the main road entrance, you will find the front beer terrace that accommodates approximately a dozen garden benches with parasols. A further rear entrance leads to a small smoking shelter area with a vast car park beyond, that can park approximately 50/60 vehicles.
The private accommodation consists of three good-sized bedrooms with a private lounge and a bathroom.

Experienced Operator
Trading style
Currently, the Plume is operated mainly as a wet-led traditional local with TV Sports, Pub Teams, & Weekend Entertainment. The area is well known for its walkers and cyclists, and a strong local community offers a steady stream of reliable customers. There is a small food offer daily and also for private functions; however, as in previous years, there would be the opportunity for an enhanced food offer to encourage more regular diners into the pub. A more premium drinks variety would also add to the footfall at the pub, and the ability for someone to build on the currently increasing function bookings would also add to the sometimes quieter day time trade and encourage further support of the local villagers.
The landlords are looking for an experienced pub operator with strong business acumen to make the most of the pub’s facilities and opportunities. This would be suited to a dedicated couple with great catering and front-of-house skills, ready to build strong community ties and support local events. This pub is available on a long-term agreement, with consideration for skilled newcomers. The landlords are looking for someone that can enhance the drinks selection with premium brands, revitalise the daily food offer, and grow community involvement through pub teams, event nights and entertainment. Promoting the function room, live sports, and special events will also be key to the pub's success.
