Property Features:

The Gardeners Arms is situated in a residential area within the beautiful village of Cheddar. Cheddar is a parish in Somerset known throughout the world as the origin of Cheddar Cheese, which has been produced there since the 12th Century and to this day is still stored in the Cheddar Caves to mature.

Upon entering the Gardeners Arms you step into the beautiful old world charm of the bar area. Moving through to the right you enter the larger but just as charming restaurant area, with a fully equipped catering kitchen, beyond that and to the rear there is an area of lawned garden with picnic benches and decking. Beyond that you come to the car park with space for over 40 cars.

Trading Style:

The pub has previously had a reputation for good quality locally sourced food. The key to turning the pub around again is to bring back a superior food offering to once again make it a destination food venue. There is also a good wet trade from the regular locals, this needs to be encouraged and developed alongside the food offer.

The new operator will need to have food experience and understand how to not only develop the food offer but ensure that locals are well catered for also. An awareness of how to attract the many tourists to the area to the pub would also be an advantage. With this in mind, understanding of how to cleverly market this great site through both traditional and digital media will be crucial to the success of the the Gardeners Arms.

There is very spacious living accommodation at this site consisting of three double bedrooms, a large family bathroom, kitchen and lounge.
