south facing beer garden bordering the Trent and Mersey Canal.

The pub has around 200 internal covers, with multiple seating areas on the ground floor and further seating
/ function room on the first floor.

The pub currently offers diverse menu of British and International dishes,
acting as a destination venue for families & friends, with the capacity for hosting large events and parties.

Location

The pub is located south of the Sinfin and Chellaston areas of Derby, and the southernmost part of the
site borders the Trent and Mersey Canal.

The site will soon benefit from a new junction from the A50, with
funding recently secure to provide direct access onto Deepdale Lane, as part of infrastructure to build more
homes and access to Infinity Park, and improving links to East Midlands Airport, the M1 and major employers
such as Rolls Royce, Toyota and JCB.

The Ragley Boat stands as a well located destination venue on a large 3 acre plot

Owner's Accommodation

Large Two bedroom owners flat with Office, kitchen, bathroom, large bedroom, en suite shower room & stairs leading to top floor bedroom

The Opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a significant plot of land with a successful business. The new highways
infrastructure will make the pub significantly more accessible and with continued residential development
on the North side of the A50, this pub can function as a pub for residents as well as a destination venue for
those from further afield.

The plot of land is undeveloped with scope for further investment to diversify trade.

We regard the unit as under trading, given the size and location and we would anticipate a new operator to
be able to grow the turnover significantly.

Staff

The property is currently operated as a managed house as part of a small group.
