Pub to rent

The Rising Sun occupies an enviable and highly visible position on the harbourside in the centre of the popular resort town of Brixham. The three coastal resorts of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham together form the Borough of Torbay with an indigenous population of over 120,000 and popularly known as The English Riviera. Brixham, at the south of Torbay, is a holiday resort in its own right and also an important fishing port with a colourful and busy harbour. Brixham has a long and colourful history, principally as a major fishing port and also as the landing place of William of Orange. In more recent years, Brixham has established itself as a popular & increasingly prestigious resort town - highly regarded by visitors and residents alike. In the late 1980's a major scheme for the redevelopment of a substantial area of the harbour and foreshore took place which included a 500 berth Marina, a promenade around the harbour linking the town centre and the breakwater, a 350 space car park and the development of houses, flats and shops. A character quayside building with views over Brixham Harbour. The Rising Sun has been a popular pub over the decades which has always traded strongly year round. The pub has a long association with the Brixham fishing trade with the vast majority of fishermen using the Rising Sun as their 'local'. Given the location, coupled with exceptional levels of footfall and tourists, this is a fantastic opportunity for a new operator to re-establish trade and capitalise on its first class position.
