Investment Planned at Popular Country Pub
The Needless Inn is a beautiful country pub located in Morley, Leeds. The pub has established trade and is known locally as a place to go for quality food. We are now planning an investment of over £209,000 to help this promising business meet it's full potential.
The pub would suit a quality food menu that prides itself on being fresh and locally sourced. All the pub classics should feature, however these should be executed to a premium standard.
The Needless boasts a large car park, three distinct trading areas and plenty of outdoor space.
In tandem with the refurbishment, we are proposing a name change to 'The Cardigan Arms'.
Experienced Food Operator Wanted
The right operator for 'The Cardigan Arms' will have a passion for food. They must have prior experience running a similar venue. Ideally, they will be well-connected in the area.

Trading Area & Facilities
Inside, the pub is split into three trading areas - the bar, dining room and snug. The existing wooden flooring in the pub will be stripped and restained throughout. We will also add new carpeting and Karndean flooring to key areas.
The existing fixed seating will be upcycled and we will add new loose furniture. The bar will receive new shelving and an overhead glass gantry. All trading areas will be redecorated with new wall art, lighting and bric a brac. The WCs will also be fully refurbished.
Post refurbishment, the interior of the pub will be able to accommodate circa 100 covers.
Outside, the pub will be rebranded under the name 'The Cardigan Arms'. We will install new signage and lighting to the exterior. The existing decking area will be restained and we will add a new cover to this space for use in all weather.
Applicants should be aware that all refurbishments are subject to final board approval which will be determined as part of the leasing process. Where a significant investment is made in a pub by Star Pubs & Bars, an "Investment Exemption" will be required. The exemption means that the option of a Market Rent Option lease won't be available at rent review for a period of up to seven years for this site, as per The Pub Code (2016).
Private Accommodation
Private accommodation consists of two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom.
