Lettings

Situated in the village of Grundisburgh, on the outskirts of Ipswich, the Dog Inn has been Let on behalf of a private client. The business was sold to an experienced licenced and leisure operator who has recently moved back to the UK after spending many years abroad

Whilst the owners were finalising planning permission to extend the residential element above the pub Fleurets were instructed to openly market and agree a short term deal with a quality tenant.

Open marketing of a closed pub in Holloway near the Emirates Stadium resulted in several offers and a deal successfully agreed with a local multisite operator.

Acting on behalf of Mitchells & Butlers, we successfully concluded a new letting of this traditional pub and restaurant to experienced operators. Benefitting from a very large beer garden, the pub is ideally situated to serve the local community and pick up passing trade, being on a main road and very close to the Lakeside shopping centre. The deal was completed within only four months of our instruction.

Located beside Swale Marina in the village of Conyer, mid-way between Sittingbourne and Faversham, the 19th century Ship Inn is a favourite destination pub and restaurant in a truly unique setting.Following our successful marketing campaign it has been re-let on behalf of private clients.

This 15th century Inn in the village of Hartfield, East Sussex closed suddenly on 2nd April .We were then instructed by the owner to find a new tenant. We made contact with known and skilled operators and 2 months from closure and 4 weeks after agreeing terms it was let to Wingrove House who own Wingrove House, Alfriston and recently bought the freehold of The Foresters, Fairwarp which we sold to them on behalf of Hall & Woodhouse.

With the lease expiring and the freeholder owners needing a flexible letting option allowing them to potentially take control of the property after a year. We provided rental and lease structure advice followed by successfully marketing the property and finding a tenant via a competitive bidding process. The property was let on a five year tenancy with a one year rolling break clause.

The second public park café letting we have completed for the local authority, following the flagship Mote Park Café in Maidstone, Cobtree Manor Park is a public amenity very popular with local families. The café is being given a new lease of life to provide an important hub and improved facility for the benefit of all visitors to the park and the local community.

A new letting was undertaken for our client McMullen & Sons when Prezzo vacated with the new leaseholder becoming Craft & Clever. This is their second site with the original located in St Albans. The site was popular due being within the busy market town of Hitchin. A Best Bids process was held with multiple offers received. The transaction was handled by Elysia Wilson-Gunn in the London Office.

We acted on behalf of landlord Matt Clark, whose Activ Leisure company runs a number of bars including Imaginarium wine bar and XO nightclub in Lincolnshire, and in association with John O'Donaghue as the outgoing Tenant who developed Carousel as the largest high street Bar in Huddersfield on the success of the brand in Lincoln.

The City Corporation of London instructed Fleurets to find an operator for this unusual Pavilion between Houndsditch and Aldgate in the City of London. Due to the location and source of funding for the original construction of the property the remit was to source not only the best operator and rental bid but to attract interest from those who had an element of social enterprise to their offer to bring a social benefit to the local community and area. Despite footfall to the City still recovering post pandemic, interest levels were excellent with over 10 proposals received.

Fleurets provided letting advice on the Raven which had been closed during the pandemic with the keys returned to the landlord and the bar stripped out. Whilst not marketing the property we agreed an off market deal with a rental uplift to multi-site operators, Pulse Developments. The property is now well invested with iconic fittings including the original Horseshoe Gold Bar servery from the Hospital Club, Soho and the psychedelic Missoni Carpet.

Shepherds was a well-known restaurant in affluent Pimlico frequented by politicians and local business people. The restaurant was put to the market to let on a fitted basis in the months prior to the pandemic. Interest levels were excellent and we agreed a deal significantly in excess of the guide rent. The deal became abortive and during the pandemic Fleurets successfully found another multi-site operator to take a new lease and the property is due to re-open as a high quality Italian restaurant.

An up-market contemporary pub and restaurant located on the main leisure circuit within Bury town centre. The rent £60,000 pa for a new free-of-tie lease. Fleurets quickly found a new tenant for the business.

Instructed on behalf of the local estate to let this country inn due to the retirement of the previous tenant. The property received substantial interest with a number of parties putting proposals together. After an interview process one party was selected and final terms agreed. The intention is to close in the first quarter of 2023 for a major refurbishment and relaunch to take this was fantastic venue onto the next phase of its long history.

Instructed to find a tenant on behalf of the owner, who had been running the pub since purchasing the freehold. Refurbished pub with letting rooms, Fleurets found the operator of an award-winning pub in Surrey to take the property on a new lease, paying a premium for the pub.
