Property details
The Ship is located in the centre of the village of Morton, situated in the parish of West Lindsey in Lincolnshire. Morton has a population of around 1,350, but it is very close to the larger market town of Gainsborough. Gainsborough offers a wide range of facilities, including local shops, supermarkets, schools, a health centre, and ample sports facilities. Morton boasts excellent transport links via the A631 to Gainsborough connecting to larger cities via the A1 and M18 and provides regular bus services between Morton and surrounding towns and villages making The Ship easily accessible for the locals.
This attractive, well-presented pub boasts lots of traditional character and features a large open-plan area. The centrally located serving bar offers full viewing access to the entire trade space. On the left, there is a games area equipped with a pool table and darts board, while on the right, there's a lounge area with low-level seating, ideal for drinking and socialising. Behind the bar, you'll find a well-equipped trade kitchen.
Access to the beer garden and smoking shelter is through the games area.
The private accommodation is in good condition and comprises three ample size bedrooms, a lounge, and a bathroom, with the trade kitchen being utilised for the domestic area as well.

Live Entertainment
Trading style
The Ship is a real community venue popular with local residents and also those coming from further afield to dine. Decorated to a good standard, the pub is a hive of activity with regular sports teams meeting throughout the week and also live televised sports on show regularly. Entertainment is also very popular at the Ship and live music and regular community events are always well supported. The good-sized catering kitchen benefits from having a 5-star EHO rating and the food on offer at the Ship is a great combination of home-cooked and traditional pub grub. The Ship also boasts an enclosed beer yard located to the side of the property and is fortunate to also have a built-in smoking shelter included.
The landlords are looking for a licensee with the skills and qualities needed to maximize this terrific opportunity including the desire and motivation to run a village local and to get involved in community events. Some catering experience would be desirable and there lies an opportunity to extend the food offer by driving the lunchtime trade. The pub currently has a very good reputation in the area and is well supported by the local residents, however, someone who can drive this pub forward and encourage those from further afield would be an advantage.
