Three pubs in Bassetlaw looking for new landlords this month

Bassetlaw already has a lot of pubs and bars to offer punters, but many are looking for new landlords and landladies

If you’ve ever liked the idea of becoming a pub landlord, now could be the perfect opportunity with plenty of Bassetlaw establishments currently available and waiting to be taken over. These boozers are on the hunt for someone to take the plunge on fixed term tenancies.

Most of us like the idea of spending all day in the pub. But be warned, actually running one is no walk in the park and in recent decades the industry has faced a series of unprecedented challenges.

We have listed three pubs across the county that are looking for someone to take over the lease, according to www.findmypub.com, www.starpubs.co.uk and www.greenekingpubs.co.uk.
