Property details
The Kings Head is situated on the main street through the village of Sutton Bonington, approximately five miles north of Loughborough. The village itself has a population of just over 2000 residents, along with the nearby University of Nottingham campus for bioscience & veterinary medicine students, and is served by a number of small independent businesses with the King's Head being one of only two pubs in the village. Sutton Bonington Football Club is situated nearby, along with your usual village facilities in the form of a park, children's play area, tennis, and bowling clubs. The nearby River Soar is popular with walkers, cyclists, and boaters in the warmer months.
Internally the pub has a traditional yet fresh décor in keeping with the tradition of the building. It is divided into two distinct trading areas, both served from a prominent central bar. The snug bar is popular with the locals for a relaxed drink and features a mix of fixed and loose seating and a darts oche. The lounge bar/dining area has softer furnishings and accommodates approximately 35 covers for relaxed dining. The pub has been very well maintained throughout.
Externally to the front, the pub features a seating area for approximately 25-30 patrons, with a car park to the side that can comfortably accommodate 20-25 vehicles. To the rear of the pub is a good-sized enclosed beer garden. The pub recently underwent an exterior decoration giving it great kerb appeal.
The private accommodation is situated on the first floor and is in good order. It consists of four bedrooms (the smaller fifth bedroom is currently being used as an office), a lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
The Kings Head operates as a traditional village community pub, with a great local reputation for cask ales and a popular homemade food menu served seven days a week featuring locally renowned fish & chips, weekly theme menus (steak nights, pie specials, etc.), and Sunday lunches. The menus are complemented by a good wine list and a premium spirit range. The pub currently enjoys a strong regular trade and is well supported by the local community. There is an opportunity to build on the current offering through regular entertainment (quiz nights, live music) and possibly pub sports through the introduction of darts teams.
This is an exciting opportunity to run a well-established pub business, and the landlords are looking to work with experienced operators who will continue the excellent work of the current licensees and fully embrace village life. You will need a strong marketing plan and experience in delivering and developing a traditional village pub food offering. The desire to grow the business is essential along with embedding yourself in the local village life to make this the “go to” pub for the local community.
