ROYAL GEORGE, SKELTON IN CLEVELAND

Excellent opportunity to take over the long established Public House, with spacious trading areas.  It has not only operated as a conventional Public House with wet sales, but in the past has offered catering, having a sizeable Restaurant.  This could be used as a small Function Room facility.  The trading areas also benefit from external ‘Beer Garden’ complementing the outlet.

Latterly the Royal George has focused on wet sales only, but catering could be re-introduced, with the re-fitting of the First Floor Catering Kitchen and Preparation Rooms.  There is also Living Accommodation on the Second Floor.

LICENCES

The property trades with the benefit of a Premises Licence.  Seriously interested parties should satisfy themselves in respect of this by making appropriate enquiries of the Local Authority Licensing Department.

FIXTURES AND FITTINGS
The current Tenant intends to remove most of the loose trade fixtures fittings and equipment, although some fixed items may remain, and be acquired by separate negotiation.

The incoming Tenant will therefore need to re-equip and re-furnish the premises generally, to suit his style of operation.

TENURE

The property is offered To Let by way of a new full repairing and insuring lease, for a term of 10 years.  The Headline Rent for the property is £25,000 per annum, exclusive.  The landlord however is prepared to be flexible with a rental structure over the first 3 years of the term, to give the incoming tenant, the opportunity to fully establish the business, particularly if it is intended to change the style of operation from that of a public house with a food offering, to a restaurant or bistro with wet sales.

The incoming tenant will be required to contribute towards the Landlord’s legal costs in connection with the preparation and agreeing the form of lease, of £1,500 plus VAT.

A rent deposit of £5,000 will be required upon completion of the lease.
